After a lot of soul-searching, I have decided to cancel this season's
classes. It
has been a complete joy teaching this year, but
at this time I am -I hope understandably- distracted by my growing
baby and the huge changes I am about to experience as a mother-to-be.
My instincts are telling me to move inwards, to nest, to explore and
nurture
myself, and I'm finding myself drawn to stillness, peace, and solitude
in
order to do this. (Also, Baby-Goodmanson is already wreaking havoc on
my lower back...and he/she only weighs about a pound at this point!)
To all of you who danced with me this fall and winter, thank you for
having the curiosity and courage to come out and try a new dance
class. I have learned more than I ever could have imagined, and I'm
looking forward to using those lessons as I plan my new offerings in
2009.
Keep an eye on my website next winter for updates and new information
(and possibly baby pictures!), because I will most certainly be back
for more! I hope you will join me again in the dance. I would love
to see you there.
Until then take care,
Meg

Healing dance encompasses any technique that allows us to drop into
our bodies and dance from the inside out. From DansKinetics® to
Authentic Movement, healing dance techniques offer a safe, sacred space
in which we can let go of our fears and limitations, releasing into
the freedom of dance without thought. In healing dance classes there
is no such thing as "doing it wrong" -if it feels right in
the moment it is right.
Drawing on training in ballet, modern dance, choreography, healing dance
modalities, and Usui Reiki, Meg Goodmanson offers a variety of classes
and treatments that meld the joy and freedom of dance with the compassion
and self-care of healing work. Passionately committed to dance as a
healing tool, Meg is constantly searching for new techniques and information
to aid and inspire her students.
Meg's goal in each dance experience is to help clients connect with
their inner dancer and remember what it feels like to play in the body.
By dropping concerns of technique and moving the way the body wants,
dancers access the unlimited healing potential of movement.
