Everything you experience,
today, tomorrow, and yesterday,
is experienced by a dynamic web of self-
the membrane of your skin, the microbiome in your gut,
emotions held in tight shoulders, a heavy feeling in your chest.
The thoughts that swirl and repeat in patterns in your brain are interwoven with your breathing,
your back pain, your hormone cycles, your inclinations, preferences, blocks, and triggers.
Our approach to supporting clients is grounded in brightening the links of this web
so that clients develop more capacity for feeling, ease, flow, and connection.
We are grounded compassionate listeners who center the body’s role in
both telling and rewriting the story of people’s lives.
We are also educators who offer concrete somatic skills
to expand client's and practitioner's ability to notice
what is happening in the web of self- body mind and spirit-
and expand your ability to choose how to respond.
In addition to offering a container for listening and a space for visioning the future,
we hold at the core of our approach the situatedness of our selves in time and space.
We recognize the role of systems of power and oppression
that have bore down on certain identities more than others
and that every one, including us, is living in the thick soup of these structures
of white supremacy, hetero-patriarchy, erasure, and genocide.
We also recognize that we are placed within a world
full of plants, animals, rocks, waters and fungi that make our life possible,
all of whom are webbed with our many varied ancestors.
Our orientation to Somatics is grounded in the wisdom of these connections
and the possibility of growing together toward more capacity collectively.
