BODY MOVEMENT & DANCE IS THERAPEUTIC

Do you love to dance...or want to dance....and love the social and health aspects, but doubt your abilities and notice that being told to "just dance with confidence" isn't enough?

Do you want to feel completely free and unlock your body's ability for movement and creativity in your dance ...or your daily life ... that you didn't think was possible?

Would you want to increase joy, health and happiness with yourself; or work through personal or life struggles (without having to talk about it)....in a fun and expressive way through music and movement?

After decades of experience as a licensed psychotherapist, life coach, educator, performer, athlete & dancer, I (Jen),  have the experience to help you work through any and all barriers to your true potential and quest for joy and happiness. 

I know what it feels like to have doubt and uncertainty when trying dance for the first time. I can help you  feel confident and secure while learning - and I will show you how the body restricts, freezes & locks up when faced with any emotion that doesn't serve you - such as worry, doubt, and self-criticism. 

These emotions impact your movement ability (and your dance) and can make you feel like you can't succeed...I will teach you how to prevent this.,....

and I will show you that anyone can move their bodies and learn to dance!

I'm able to show you how to overcome that and more...using specialized activities and techniques that allow you to dance with confidence and inhibition...learn more specialized body movements for your dance , to be comfortable using improvisation and creativity in your dancing, or how to just move your body in ways that feel good, healthy & unrestricted.

Even if you're not a dancer - dance is not required - you can use movement to free the body and mind from what inhibits it.

When you move & dance from the inside like this - you unleash a freedom in your body that takes your your dance...your happiness...and your life to another whole level!

So join me at JJ's Dance Fusion where we are more than just a dance studio...we are a home for everyone to have a safe place to explore movement, musicality, dance & connection.....a positive place to become fit and healthy in body and mind...with the option to learn almost any dance style...

while absolutely loving yourself and life doing so!

Let me liberate you!

Dance improvisation & creative dance is not only about creating new movement, but is also unlocking the body from learned habitual movement patterns.. and freeing the mind from limiting belief systems such as self consciousness and self judgement…….

thoughts like "I can't do this"  locks our body into repetitive movement and rigidity.

Improvisation and creative dance is the process of spontaneously creating movement and it is the development of new body movement through creative exploration.
Some of the ways we do this is through body -mind process & centering, imagery, shaping, exploring dance dynamics, sensory experiences through touch or contact and perception, and releasing limited belief systems & emotions.

This is what we do in Mind, Body, & Movement with Jen. I’m here to liberate your dance world … watch the transformation that happens in your social dance, performances, and even your daily life when you introduce improvisational and creative movement into your life!
