"The planet's language is movement"

— Emilie Conrad

The Truth.

We all dance with gravity. Either it leads, or we do.

Over time, we discover the dances we like the best, which ones we’re naturally good at. And we choose them over and over.

Until we don’t make the choice anymore - we get stuck in a repetitive dance led by gravity’s tendencies. 

Without change, this dance gets stale.

And without awareness, we can’t change.

So the body starts to rebel.

I know. I’ve Been There.


You’ve been to physical therapy, or have considered it.


You’ve bought fitness equipment for your home practice; you do the prescribed exercises — you can do them in your sleep by now.

And somehow the pain still creeps in.

You don’t think surgery is necessary just yet. But you don’t feel confident it’s going away on its own.

From the pain — or even just the fear of pain — you’ve stopped taking class, running, biking, playing tennis, dancing, hiking. Even still, everyday movement feels challenging.

Some days, you forget you even have a body.

But you’d like to remember.


You’d like to feel strong again — feel what you’re capable of, harness the power of your years on the earth into an easeful control of your own form and function.


You want targeted treatments that get at the heart of the issue. You’re tired of the band-aids.

What if therapeutic movement was fun, engaging, life-affirming, and showed you a path to your larger movement goals?

Change Is Coming.

HomeBody’s customized coaching programs are part of a healing process that awakens the unconscious body-mind to the patterns that cause pain, inflammation, chronic injury, or general weakness.  

This is a return to your foundation, a remembering of where the source of your power lies. 

This is the gentle unwinding of your movement habits, witnessing which ones genuinely nourish you and which ones don’t.


This is a chance to choose how you dance with gravity.

You can’t be fixed.

Change takes time; HomeBody is not motivated by a “fix me” mentality. Because no one can fix you. 

There’s nothing wrong with you. You are whole.

HomeBody’s customized coaching programs help you see, feel, & move from that wholeness. 



Excavating deep-seeded patterns that cause misalignment, injury, & weakness is a messy business that can’t be accomplished by willpower, alone. 

HomeBody core concepts are crafted specifically to address your uniquely-layered experience. You will be lovingly challenged and encouraged, while you navigate the shadows your body needs to clear.

HomeBody is different.

This is not just a weekly class, session, or private training.

This is a mindset transformation. 

This is a body-mind recalibration.


This reshapes how you relate to your moving body.

This turns traditional exercises upside down and inside out.

HomeBody creates space for all of you to participate:

organs to settle, bones to realign, muscles to rebalance, and nervous system to authentically respond.


So that you create lasting change with no more pain, no more injury.

No more repetitive exercises with little meaning. 

Learn how to coordinate your whole-moving body-mind.

Like a harmony of voices singing.

Like a healthy ecosystem teeming with life.


Like a body-mind in alignment.

Working with HomeBody, you will

Challenge your comfort zones

Recalibrate your sense of strength and power

Discover how a felt sense of safety brings ease, nourishment & pleasure into your movement

Discover the unique alignment* that will empower your body’s resilience

*HomeBody doesn’t subscribe to the linear stack-your-bones definition of alignment. Alignment is your personal experience with connecting all parts of your self. This is the practice of embodiment — the inner knowing.

What You Can Expect

HomeBody programs guide you toward the body-mind state that supports your embodiment experience and with it, your intuitive body wisdom.

No two body-minds are the same. And as such, each must attune in its unique ways.

 

 

How do you want to experience the world?

HomeBody Empowers You

HomeBody offers customized movement coaching in dynamic body alignment, strength training, and self-care techniques that empower movers to make informed movement choices in every moment.

The practice utilizes somatic methods which raise awareness of movement habits. Through conscious practice, we can expand the body's understanding of itself, broaden movement choices, and cultivate lasting wellness.

By following the lead of your own body wisdom, you will gain insight on how best to tend to yourself on and off the mat, allowing the body to heal itself.

Movement is your tool. The body is your guide. Wellbeing is the path.

 

HomeBody Redefines Fitness

HomeBody blends a rich combination of experience-based learning and deep listening that bridges the gap between fitness and wellness. HomeBody reimagines fitness as a way to shape a truly versatile and resilient body.

It uses the movement forms of pilates, yoga, dance and Body-Mind Centering to access whole-body expression, while upholding the accuracy and specificity valued in physical therapy. 

Fitness — as a form of wellness — happens through the ongoing conversation between internal and external movement choices. When we become attuned to this conversation, the body is free to respond authentically and in the moment, rather than habitually and without awareness.

HomeBody Guides You Home

HomeBody is a belief that when we come home to our bodies, we become attuned to our own perfection; we become connected inward to our cores and outward to our desires, relationships and environments. 

The physical body is the primary source of home — our anchor, our point of orientation.  By beginning with home, we discover what roots us in order to help us grow.

How well we tend our bodies will reflect our level of comfort, stability, and confidence.  How well we engage our bodies reflects our ability to engage the world.
