The pre-launch of The Mind Body Adventure App is happening next week! Here’s a behind the scenes look at how the BodyLogos Method Shape-Shifted my prolonged tension into Relaxed Strength! I started dance class at 10-years old. It was the great escape from a home life that didn’t feel safe. When teachers would instruct me […]
Where does your hutzpah come from? Dr. Ruth made a documentary about her story last year. Here’s my short-story! Years of childhood trauma taught me to be tough, and tension was its cohort. I believed strength was the capacity to endure hardship and pain––physical and emotional. And if I was tough enough the tension would […]
Long summer treks out of city congestion balance my need for the open road. I’ve lived on a motorcycle in NYC traffic for 25-years. How unusual to have open road around me when riding through midtown Manhattan. A summer trek right here on Broadway! CoronaVirus has completely changed the landscape. It’s an infectious landscape of […]

Holiday socializing may have overflowed into the work week and made these early workouts painful. One of my high achiever’s responded to feeling over-done by over-doing some more! Did she believe that […]
While learning posture’s subtle balance between surrendering and aligning, a student questioned, “shouldn’t good posture be natural––balancing attention between tension and strength is hard?!” I felt that his sentiment should be true, but my experience working with bodies showed otherwise. So I slept on it. (My go-to place when stumped!) As I laid down that […]
