We continually communicate qualified or unqualified instructions towards our bodies from trainers, teachers, professionals, doctors, from the demands of work and from ourselves. The body is this great receptacle for all that we ask of it to absorb. It is also the instrument of our soul to play and dance in life. Without accrediting our body with the authority to feedback what it has taken in and express what is knows, we become very vulnerable to the instruction and its source.‹¨›/span‹˜›‹¨›/p‹˜›‹¨›p‹˜›‹¨›strong‹˜›No matter what the activity, if we live a life obligating the body to act solely as the receiver of our life’s demands, it will break down.‹¨›/strong‹˜›‹¨›/p‹˜›‹¨›h4‹˜›‹¨›span style‹´›‹²›font-weight: 400;‹²›‹˜›Our body needs to be given the freedom to express what it feels and what it knows. ‹¨›/span‹˜›‹¨›/h4‹˜›‹¨›h3‹˜›‹¨›span style‹´›‹²›font-weight: 400;‹²›‹˜›It’s knowingness is the blueprint to our wellbeing.‹¨›/span‹˜›‹¨›/h3‹˜›‹¨›h4‹˜›‹¨›strong‹˜›TAO ‘OM‹¨›/strong‹˜›‹¨›span style‹´›‹²›font-weight: 400;‹²›‹˜› is the name I have given to a deep ‹¯›amp; connected ‹¨›/span‹˜›‹¨›span style‹´›‹²›font-weight: 400;‹²›‹˜›experience‹¨›/span‹˜›‹¨›span style‹´›‹²›font-weight: 400;‹²›‹˜› of being in our body that we can access through a certain dimension of movement and breathe.

My own prolifically strong body began to break down at the age 43. After visiting many external healers, I made the decision to go deeply inwards to figure out what this body needed to heal. I was committed to change the way I was doing everything. I pursued the practice of yoga and I fell deeply in love with the world of free movement and freestyle dance. My Yin energies swept through my martial arts practice and all other parts of my life.
