Upcoming Classes/Workshops
Registration is now opened for Jenny’s last workshop at Presence Studio. Not to be missed.
Tender & Fierce: The Dance of Paradox
An Open Floor Movement Practice Workshop
There’s a part of every human that is wired to divide to split things clean, to choose sides, to say this or that. Our ego means well; it’s built for speed and safety. But life? Life is messier. And far more magnificent.
We are made of contradictions. Soft and strong. Boundaried and wide open. We carry tenderness in our rage, and a quiet fierceness in our love. This is the dance of paradox~ not a problem to fix, but a tension to feel, a mystery to move.
Together, we’ll explore paradox and in particular two powerful energies:
Tender - vulnerability that pulses with courage,
Fierce - the fire of passion, protection, and presence.
Whether you're longing to soften or ready to roar, whether you lean one way or crave the balance, this practice invites it all.
We’ll move from either/or to both/and ~ from polarity to fluidity, from fragmentation to wholeness.
Let’s dance it. Let our bodies teach us. Let the body of our community hold the wisdom we can’t think our way into or through.
Come as you are. Bring it all.
Jenny is Executive Director and Facilitates Workshops and Retreats for Rite of Passage Journeys…

Your Body is your Home
"We are spirits living n a material world...."
Sting
Peacemaking with your body
and re-membering interconnection with the natural world
is at the heart of the work I facilitate.
Whether you experience physical discomfort or
you are longing for more self-knowledge and connection
I believe that wholeness and well-being is possible for every body.
When we embrace conscious connection
through movement
we can collaborate with the material world
and remember
interconnection
all parts of ourselves
whole
Curious?
