For over a decade now I have devoted myself to the embodied arts.
First through sensual movement and dance for Women, and now through therapeutic tantric and ecstatic bodywork.

At the heart of what I offer lives a sense of devotion to what makes us feel most alive.
The raw, messy, beautiful and pleasurable aspects of our humanness and the vibrant intelligence that lives within it all.

Supporting others in uncovering their aliveness is a natural continuation of the path I’ve walked myself.
Like many holistic practitioners, I found my way here by remedying the pain and disconnection I experienced growing up.

My relationship with my soma (mind, body, spirit) was hugely shaped by early adolescent trauma and the coping mechanisms I formed to get by. For over a decade my body was something to manage, control, or escape from most of the time.

Healing began in a Women’s sacred dance class in 2015. Through feminine dance, self touch, and a gentle consistent practice of staying with myself through movement - my relationship with my body and life began to change.

For the first time since childhood, I felt at home in my skin.

It wasn’t long before the pleasure and ecstasy I assumed was missing in my unique constellation, was danced alive.

I experienced pleasure not as a goal, destination or reward… but as a hum of aliveness that rolled through my day, enlivening even the most mundane experiences.

Thus, began an insatiable hunger to learn more, feel deeper, and uncover just how much beauty, power and radiance I was capable of experiencing in this life.

My lived healing journey forms the foundation of everything I offer today.
It shapes how I work, how I listen, and support others to reconnect with their bodies in ways that feel sustainable and inspiring.

Alongside teaching, I studied Somatics and Dance Movement Therapy, with a particular focus on trauma resolution and nervous system regulation. This deepened my understanding of how the body holds memory, emotion, and protective patterns. And how healing happens not through force, but through attunement, pacing, and inclusion.

As my own embodiment deepened, my path naturally led me into the world of Tantric bodywork and devotional massage. I felt called beyond movement alone, into the intimacy of touch and relational presence. This led to completing a nine-month Apprenticeship with Stephanie Avis at Devotional Bodywork, a highly regarded and established practice in therapeutic tantric bodywork.

In the years that followed, I worked within the Devotional Bodywork practice itself, stepping into a Senior Practitioner role. This time truly brought together everything I had been living and learning for years, deepening my understanding of sexual healing, intimacy, and the ways shame, suppression, and longing live in the nervous system and tissues of the body, specifically within the sexual and reproductive organs.

Working intimately with bodies over many years has given me a deep reverence for the tenderness people carry, particularly around pleasure, desire, and self-expression. I am passionate about supporting others not only to heal, but to reclaim their aliveness in ways that feel inspiring and integrated.

Today, my work weaves Devotional Tantric Bodywork, Hawaiian and Polynesian massage traditions, somatic movement, and attuned touch. Sessions are slow, relational, and therapeutic, guided by breath, listening, and respect for the body’s own healing intelligence and timing.

When you come to receive from me, you are met by someone who has danced this path for years. Someone who understands the intelligence of the soma, the resourcefulness of the spirit, and the quiet power of being deeply, lovingly present with ourselves and each other.

This work is my devotion.
It is an honour to share it with you.
