Inquiry - a seeking or request for the truth.
Join us as we embark on a dynamic moving exploration of the truth that resides in our own body. Through the Open Floor movement/dance practice, Somatic Experiencing principles, and mindful inquiry, we will journey below the stories about who we are and who we should be. Together we will strengthen our skills to listen, track and follow the innate wisdom of our own body, discovering how it speaks to us through movement.
From our practice on the dance floor, you will develop greater trust in your body's natural intelligence that will enable you to live with more awareness, vitality and joy.
Each week we will explore a different theme, which we will be able to integrate into our everyday lives.
These classes are very therapeutic and you'll get a good dance on!
Advantages of dancing with a committed group:
All levels of experience welcome. Open to all ages 18 and up.
It is preferable that you attend the entire series, but I know that life gets in the way sometimes, so if you know you need to miss a few dates, that is ok, but the price for the series is the same. However, I do ask that you only miss if you're sick, out of town, or other unavoidable situations. Other than that, please show up, even if you're tired or just don't feel like it. It's always to your benefit to move whatever you are feeling.

Read what people are saying about this class series:
“Stacey led my dance class series and opened my eyes to the transformative power of an open floor movement practice. She created a safe space for us to express ourselves and get to know our bodies in new ways. Each class had a different theme, from the open/closed duality of the heart to the groundedness of the feet to the pauses of breath and life and the tensions we carry around with us. I breathed deeper and clearer after my classes with her, and looked forward to them every week as a form of movement therapy. I feel tremendously lucky to have had her as my teacher and guide. I look forward to future classes and to continuing my own journey of exploring and honoring the breadth of emotions that run through my blood and live deep in my bones. These dance classes are something *everyone* could benefit from. Truly magical!”
“WOW! Stacey's Open Floor Movement dance workshops are my favorite thing in life right now! She hosts a closed cohort that meets for 5 or 6 weeks at a time. Participants get to know one another through the language of dance, which creates intimacy, community, and a sense of safety that allows for a deeper degree of vulnerability. There's true healing here! Stacey also brings her depth of somatic knowledge into the curated workshops that feel to be a melding between somatic experiencing, yoga, and ceremony. Of all the conscious dance in Asheville, what Stacey has created is truly unique, special, intentional, and EXACTLY the space you want to be in if you desire movement for healing mind, body, and soul!”
“I cannot thank you enough for so expertly facilitating such a therapeutic space during my transition to this area and ALL the changes I’ve been through. It was a profound yet gently healing experience”
"Love Stacey's classes - take them almost every offering as I gain more of me each time I dance with her. I'll feel sluggish and too tired to go, but once I get past the resistance and arrive, I quickly feel happy and energized by the end of the two hours. Also seen, cared for, and honored."
