Life to me is about the constant, constant in change, in acceptance of it all and in the practice of being more patient with myself, I’m pouring more self acceptance and more self love. Dance and movement without judgement is THE work for me always. Progress not perfection is my motivation.

On the whole, I am the everyday woman, I stress about my family, my kids, my health, I was fortunate enough to have found a passion that provides me with the energy to make all of it work. I am the sum of all these parts and I grateful for the madness of it all. I credit my community and family for this. They show up for me, always!

My first studio, Spinderella Studios was started in my backyard in 08, thru the years, with lots of trails and errors, it made its leap in Woodinville for 3 years until 2015 and then finally closed its doors in 2020. So much to say about Spinderella Studios, but I will save that for conversations that happen organically in face to face exchanges. It taught me everything I needed for the next phase of my teacher/ dancer/ producer/ student chapters that follow.

Fast forward to present day, my family and I made the biggest move ever! We left our lives on the Sammamish plateau and moved to Cle Elum, Wa. It was easy to fall in love with its wide open landscapes of trees and mountains and small town feel.

The calling to open another studio became loud and clear so Elevate 47*N was born. After a year of construction, so much blood and sweat and tears, this space has become everything I have ever wanted and more. I’m free to be, to create content that heals my body, mind and soul. My hope is serve the community with my knowledge of the aerial world while combining it with movements borrowed from yoga, Pilates, HIIT and all kinds of dance styles. Fusion is the future of all things aerial for Elevate and for myself.

Let’s always dance, let’s always move our bodies and let’s always leave space to discover. The first step IS the only step, it’s where you and I begin.
