Tap into vital energy to support
your well-being

  • Yoga

  • Meditation

  • Breath-work

These practices are intertwined, and also have value separately. We choose which to emphasize. The ancient knowledge of yoga is a bridge to experience life with a deep sense of peace.

Classes, workshops, and individual sessions happen virtually as well as in-person for the Washington, DC area.

A Portable Identity

Are you an accompanying partner abroad? This interactive book began as a program for the expatriate community of Bangkok, Thailand. It offers powerful exercises, essential information, personal stories, and a practical, easy-to-use, model to take charge of change during international relocation. Our model can also assist you with life transitions. Sometimes living abroad coincides with your life transition, a double whammy.

Meet Your Muse

Get intimate with your creativity to fuel your life and your work. Writing prompts, art, experiential exercises, and poetry combine to engage your innate creative nature. This book is especially helpful if you have doubts about being creative or want to reenergize your imaginative powers. The journal page above is an example of the book’s original art by Kate Kroska. What better way to entice your senses and invite your muse?

New Pathways of Expression
are Liberating

  • Expand into the possibility for change.

  • Honor patterns imprinted in your body’s architecture.

  • Find new ways to engage your authentic self.

  • Rediscover play, spontaneity, learning by moving.

    You do not need to identify with dance to be a dance therapy client! Movement is another avenue for expression and inner listening. Movement was your first language, and it continues to be layered into all the other ways you communicate.

“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
