Dance/Movement Therapy

Find new pathways of expression that are liberating. We all have patterns imprinted into the architecture of our bodies that we can honor and uncover. We can reevaluate how we hold ourselves together and move through the world.

You do not need to identify with dance
to be a dance therapy client.

Movement, along with conversation, is a language we share in a session. Similar to coaching, clients set goals or desired outcomes, and I provide structures to support these.

“Her energy and calm, positive spirit transfers to her students.” 

“I have taken yoga classes with Charise for more than 10 years. I have followed her to different studios and have worked with her privately in an effort to regain health and wellness after illness. Her energy and calm, positive spirit transfers to her students. I consider her a blessing to my life and her unique interpretation of yoga is invaluable to me." - Beth Cohn
