dance with me

Embark on a transformative journey that harnesses the power of dance and movement to reconnect you with your body's loving language and awaken your authentic truth. Discover dance as a profound tool for deep healing and personal growth, inviting you to explore, express, and embrace the truest version of yourself.

If you’re comfortable dancing in public - without drugs or alcohol - you’re truly at peace with who you are.

Urban Somatic Dance

This is not just another ecstatic dance!

Imagine a space where you can free your mind, reconnect with your body, and release what no longer serves you—no masks, no holding back. Urban Somatic Dance is a monthly, guided journey that leads you through five conscious stages — from birth and renewal to death and closing cycles — helping you navigate life’s transitions with clarity and intention.

With trauma awareness at its core and rhythms rooted in ancestral wisdom, this experience offers a protected, sacred intentional space to express yourself fully. I’ll be with you within each step along the way, creating a safe and non-judgmental environment where you can reconnect with your essence, feel the power of movement, and embrace a more vibrant, awakened version of yourself.

Whether you’re going through a life change, or seeking more vitality and joy, Urban Somatic Dance invites you to explore beyond the mind.

“Thanks for sharing dance with me!! The word ecstatic always turned me away from this kind of thing, but I love the space you create for us just to move. I’m dancing all the time now!”

Anika creates a safe space where I feel comfortable to reconnect with my body and release what no longer serves me. It’s been a transformative journey, helping me uncover and process unresolved emotions.”
