I’ve been boppin around western Kenya the past couple weeks, leading movement workshops for organizations & schools.
Strength training, stretching, tapping, breathing, & DANCING. Building mind-body connection in community.
It combines all my favorite things: traveling, adventure, movement, creativity, deepening relationships, building confidence, sharing stories, learning, & humanity.
As I continue to build the “feel at home” movement, I’ll be sharing my journey here.
I love collaborating and looking forward to growing & sharing joy everywhere I go.

A ‘feel at home’ moment: I’ve been away from my 2 year old son for almost two weeks.
I was telling my therapist how I was missing hugs.
The next day I went to a cafe and a little 3 year old boy was standing on a chair next to me at my height.
As I was looking through the glass to select my pastry, I feel his little arms wrap around my neck.
He hugged me for ten seconds then continued to giggle. His mama was standing there in shock.
It was pure & needed. Moments of comfort can come from any direction if we are open to it.

My goal is to bring more joy to my meals.
Breakfast sandy: Ciabatta, fried egg, parm cheese, chicken sausage patty, cilantro, sriracha, & hot honey. 🫰🏼

Have you tried progressive dinner?
Choose 3-5 places and order 1-2 things to share. You’ll get to try new foods, embrace sharing & get some steps in between.

I taught my first dance class EVER this weekend for an event called Mama Moves to honor World Maternal Mental Health Day.
I brought a little flavor of Tanzania to the mix and taught Komosava.
Here’s a little clip of the magic.

Bollywood dancing with kaka 👣
@npub1kul9...ffjj is an incredible dancer. I enjoyed learning this choreo with him 🇹🇿 🙌🏼
A little language lesson: Kaka = brother in Kiswahili
