Classes & Community

I teach classes for beginners who are not experienced with ground movement as well as classes for the intermediate mover who has years of movement history in their toolbox. 

​

I always give modifications and am always aware of ability differences. 

​

Regardless of the differences, my class focuses on the person’s awareness of their internal landscapes with the hope to inspire physical awareness and advocacy for their bodies.

According to the Official Animal Flow© website, "Animal Flow is ground based movement, made fun, challenging and effective. This system is designed to improve strength, power, flexibility, mobility, and coordination for all levels of fitness enthusiasts…”
