Meet Amelia
Inspired by more than 20 years of bodywork experience, I offer an open heart and listening hands to guide you in re-membering your body. A lifelong dancer in awe of the beauty and wisdom of the human body, I love supporting clients with living comfortably in and enjoying the fullest expression of their bodies.
I address:
- Layers of connective tissue with Swedish massage, Neuromuscular Therapy, and Myofascial Release
- Relational dynamics between blockages with Thai massage, Polarity, and Reflexology
- Subtle energetic patterns with Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy and Reiki
I also integrate Somatic Therapies into my sessions. This work involves supporting you in mindfully listening to your body, tracking sensations as information about your nervous system, and letting your body guide you in resolving unhealthy patterns and trauma.
Clients appreciate my intuitive integration of focused work within the context of addressing your whole being. I offer from a place of deep listening presence, fueled by my passion and curiosity about the human body and guided by the wisdom in my hands, to meet your needs for a brilliant healing experience.
As a dance/movement facilitator, I love guiding you in sensing, feeling, moving, and expressing all the mysterious impulses of your embodied beingness–your moment to moment, emergent, mysterious, energetic embodied respondings and conversings with yourself, with others, and with Mystery. I bring my lifetime of experience, dancing since age 3, teaching since age 16, professionally performing for 20 years, and now developing my unique improvisational style of listening-responding-guiding dance/movement experiences of transformational rituals.
I offer from a place of integrating various dance/movement practices including modern/contemporary dance, Authentic Movement and other mindful movement practices (Body Mind Centering, yoga, qi gong), Contact Improvisation, Diego Piñón’s Body Ritual Movement, Japanese Butoh, and other therapeutic modalities from my masters degree in Somatic Counseling Psychology: Dance/Movement Therapy and Body Psychotherapy from Naropa University.
