A Space for Joy and Movement

I am most passionate about joy. I think people follow me because my nature brings them home. I have been told by some that my authenticity helps them to feel into the deepest parts of themselves that have gotten lost in the rigmarole of adulthood. This is one of the highest compliments. And for this, I deduce it may be my essence that makes people want to hear what I have to say.

Dance and yoga are some of the many ways I express my essence, live in my essence and explore my essence. And I love to get others involved. With Memberful I could create a community of beautiful people who just want to express movement and explore. We could get together and practice choreography or flow through a beautiful yoga sequence. I could offer these get-togethers and provide a space where we can come back to ourselves, release the day and refill our cups. Many of us in our lifestyles don’t experience much range-of-movement. We sit in the same positions for hours with very little flexibility. I could provide a space for people to get in touch with that adventurous side of themselves that dares to try a handstand or at least touch their toes ^_^. These are monumental experiences of growth: gaining the flexibility to touch one's touch, finally getting the splits or even gaining the strength and balance to come into a handstand. The process can be so exciting for many.

These challenges are unique as the journey is often slow yet intimate so you really get a chance to witness your progress. So many times we rush to the finish line distracted the whole way through. During the entire race we are thinking about the finish line, or the next race, and never fully experience the actual race. Yoga truly allows one to experience the race. It’s near impossible to go from not being able to come into a headstand- to being able to do so in one day. Or being so far from touching your toes to palming the floor in one day. These things take time. And along that time there is the opportunity to learn about yourself, to get to know yourself, to get to know your muscles, to feel inside yourself- to have space for self-inquiry, self-motivation, self-exploration, and self-confidence. And it isn’t all about the self. Having a community offering through Memberful could allow people to get to know other explorers and really build support for one another through showing up for this great adventure. It is so motivating to know that you're not alone in your journey and providing community through Memberful could give so many that beautiful feeling of belonging.

In addition to yoga, as I mentioned before, I also love to dance. Go figure, it’s all about the movement for me. The girl loves to move :). Movement is fun. It's expression. It’s healing. It’s the opposite of repression. Ever since I remember I’ve been making up dances with my girls and performing them for our uncles, aunties, siblings, parents, cousins and friends. It’s the enjoyment for me. It’s the celebration for me. The joy, the synchronization and the mental challenge for me as well! Dancing with choreography involves the ears, the body, and the mind all together. It involves so much coordination but you can’t forget your stage presence. You can’t forget your joy. This is what makes dance classes so fun for me. Holding space for others to express the joy of movement online would give me the opportunity to share joy with so many others. Winning a year of Memberful would really help me help others and that to me is just the most beautiful thing. Thank you Vocal Media and Memberful for the opportunity to share my story and potentially utilize the Memberful platform to spread more joy!
