Born and raised in California, I spent my childhood seeking the wild poppies and sweet fennel that grew along the roadsides.
I attended Chico State University and Humboldt State University where I completed my associate of arts as a student of Costume Design and Women’s Studies.
I live on a beautiful forested hillside surrounded by birds, chipmunks, squirrels, deer and love the BC organic lifestyle. 
Based in Grand Forks, I teach a number of dance styles, and love to share Bellyfit® with women in my community.

As a student of Somatic Therapies, I am aware of how important connection to our body and body sensations is for our overall health and well being.
Bellyfit offers women an opportunity to deepen their body awareness, and release toxins and emotions held in the body through movement set to amazing transformational music.
Add to this a great cardio workout with other women, and you have a very comprehensive and effective body/mind/spirt fitness and wellness program.
I really resonate with the Bellyfit system which is much, much more than a fitness program.  It is developed to empower and support the whole woman, as well as to develop community and awareness.
