"i literally danced back to my creativity and soul"
“When I was intuitively drawn to start working with Jess, I felt a creative project emerging but had no vision for the finish line. The process of showing up for myself and creating it little by little was really incredible — and had a lasting impact. I literally danced back to my creativity and soul and felt so open to whatever life brought me next.
I started this process with the intention of two words: expansion and femininity. I felt a need to bring attention and work to these aspects of life, after asking myself the hard questions, particularly around: my mother’s leaving, romantic relationships, and why I’ve developed limitations.
Jess helped me to create a dance piece that shed cobwebs of doubt, discomfort, confusion, unworthiness and pain. Through this process, I naturally let go of what wasn’t serving me. I felt this new space to be exactly who I was.
As an entrepreneur myself, practicing what I preach is huge. I was able to find more joy, give back to myself, slow down, and better serve my clients. I’m more creative, rested, and present when I step back and take creative time for myself.”

about your dance coach
Hi, I'm Jess!
I remember the moment when I knew I wanted to create and perform my first solo dance piece. I was terrified - it felt irrational, out of the blue, and maybe even a bit egotistical. But something in my soul wanted to express and create and reclaim the dancer in me - and this form felt like the truest way to do that.
That was well over 10 years ago and since then, dance has become a huge part of my life and career. The process of creating something unique and true to me was so transformative, that I later started helping others do the same.
Through my personal experience as a dancer and my professional experience as a health- and creativity-coach, I found a special knack for guiding others into taking what's in their soul and turning it into an expressive dance.
Beyond my personal expression, it's truly one of my favorite things to do. I'd love to connect more and see if this could be the right fit for YOU!
I have few words to describe this experience. Just the joy in my heart, the tears in my eyes, the hope in every cell. I am once again immersed in a creative space and I am thankful for Jess’ magical tough, great facilitation, and doula work.
