KISS YOUR FEAR GOODBYE!
Six Ways to Melt Improv Fear
A one-hour video class with Alia Thabit
Insecurity Stinks
We dancers are often terrified we might feel or express the wrong thing. We're so desperate to please everyone, we don't even know what we feel!
We worry that we can't feel anything. That will be wrong. That we will get in trouble. That we will be boring...
So… what can we do?

SE curiously explores body sensations, images, emotions, meaning, and movements that arise. You don't have to tell your life story, or much of anything. We work with what is, right now.
Results include a sense of well-being, self-compassion, and increased resilience. It is a very gentle, effective method.
I’m a Somatic Experiencing® (SE) Practitioner. I’ve long included SE work in my dance coaching. Folks like it–they feel the benefits. One client’s 30-year pain went away. Another reduced her fear of being seen. Another became close to her family again. It makes my heart glad to see the healing.
Sessions are conducted via Zoom for distance clients. Sessions last about an hour. It is recommended to take a nap afterwards.
If you’ve had challenging experiences in your life, if you feel that they haven’t been resolved, if you find yourself being repeatedly triggered, SE may help you.
I am making sessions available at a sliding scale of $65-$135 as things are so hard right now for so many people.
To discover more, I invite you to email me or book a brief complimentary call.
