bodywork for the people who make the art

Individualized massage therapy, embodied education, and recovery support for performing artists navigating the physical and sensory demands of their work.

For individual artists, dance companies, production teams, and creative organizations.

Let’s Work Together

PERFORMANCE IS PHYSICAL

Rehearsing the same movement for hours. 
Performing under adrenaline.
Traveling between cities.
Carrying instruments and equipment.
Repeating choregraphy night after night.
Dance medicine and performing-arts health programs inreasingly recognize the value of education, recovery, and preventative care, and access to professionals who understand the specific demands of performing.

What I offer

Performance Recovery

Individualized massage therapy designed around your current training, rehersal, performance, or touring schedule

Dancer Wellness

Dancers develop an incredibly sophisticated relationship with movement—but that doesn’t always mean the same level of awareness of what is happening internally. Together, we can explore:

  • Body awareness and interoception

  • Muscle tension, bracing, guarding patterns

  • Recovery between rehersals and performances

  • Recognizing changes in sensation

  • Repetitive movement demands

  • Breath and Movement

  • Sustainable training habits

  • Developing a more compassionate relationship with the body

Performing Artist Support

Big Ideas, Real Impact.

THE WORK IS NOT ABOUT PUSHING THROUGH

There is a particular culture around performance that can make ignoring the body feel like professionalism.

But pain isn’t a badge of commitment.

Exhaustion isn’t always evidence that you’re working hard enough and recovery isnt time taken away from your art.

it is part of sustaining your ability to make it.

my goal isn’t to help you become better at overriding your body, its to help you become better at listening to it.
