The single most effective way to be healthier and happier - and live longer - is to dance more.

I use movement, meditation, and breath to open the heart, quiet the mind, and tune the body.

When you add these elements together, the result is greater than the sum of its parts.

That is what I call dance.

And it’s the best way I know how to practice being free.

In the words of the ancient mystic Hafiz, ‘Come dance with me.’

~ Elia

Want to feel at home in your own skin and at ease around others?

Want to express your emotions and reconnect to your heart?

Want to quiet your mind but don’t like sitting still?

Looking for a joyful way to regulate your nervous system?

Afraid of dance but wish you weren’t?

The single best thing I do best is help people dance who don’t think they can dance. And help people meditate who don’t think they can meditate.

Wherever you’re at, I’ll meet you there. With safety, support, and skill.

I offer private sessions, group classes, guided programs, and destination retreats.

For adults, kids, elders, dancers, non-dancers, in chairs, out of chairs, with words, without words, for therapists, somatic professionals, and everyone in-between.

Online and in-person.

"If I can't dance, I don't want to be part of your revolution."

Don't worry Emma Goldman, me neither.
