Nurturing Moves: Healing Services That Unite Science with Love and Joy.

Nurturing Moves is an integrative, whole person approach to prevention, wellness, healing, and birth preparation that unites the science of physical therapy with diaphragm-guided belly dance based rhythmical asanas, breathing exercises, creative movement, therapeutic massage, energetic medicine, chanting, and meditation.

Nurturing Moves teaches you to efficiently synchronize posture, movement, and breath with scientific integrity and safety for maximal effectiveness and performance of all daily life activities. This unique combination harmonizes your mind-body-diaphragm relationship while maximizing innate healing capacities. Nurturing Moves naturally facilitates a state of restful alertness and the experience of your inherent nature... which is peace, love, and joy (the opposite of fear and stress). In addition, exercises strengthen creative self-expression, create community, and support. Allow Michelle to safely guide you inward so that you may dance your life to the fullest outward with your Nurturing Moves.

Michelle has created a series of postures which are specifically designed to be counter poses to the stresses we place on our bodies on a daily basis. Activities of daily living, which do not at first brush appear stressful, such as working on the computer, driving, etc. actually can place tremendous strain on the body. After class with Michelle, I feel that ideal juxtaposition of energetic awakening and relaxed opening of my body. As a participant in many yoga and movement classes, I am truly grateful for this experience. Michelle provides a stimulating and unique environment due to her extensive knowledge of movement and biomechanics coupled with her enthusiastic expression of yogic arts and belly dance. Michelle is truly one of the most gifted teachers I have met.
