What is ‘Sound Body?’
Sound Body, LLC is my personal teaching studio and brand, which mainly offers private lessons and classes specializing in the Alexander Technique, voice-breath-body work, wellbeing, and heart-centered awareness. I like to think of Sound Body as an invitation to experience one’s whole self in motion. Just as a sound wave or ray of light is always moving, so are we. Our breath, our rhythms of life, our thoughts, and our cells are always in motion. Even stillness is its own form of motion. And tuning into this innate motion can help cultivate a sense of flow, both in our physical movements and the inner world of ourselves and how we experience life.
Why ‘Sound Body?’
While the name ‘Sound Body’ is largely representative of how the Alexander work initially impacted me as a musician when I experienced a literal sense of my whole body making sound, its meaning also goes a step deeper. Inspired by important aspects of my own life journey — a continual healing of chronic illness and anxiety, lack of self worth, past surgeries, traumas from surgeries, and PTSD — Sound Body also represents the soundness of self that exists at our very core, discovered through experiencing, deserving, and embodying well-being. Even as we live through ups and downs, this soundness is available to us always.
Drawing from my own health and spiritual journey, alongside my love of psycho-physical work, I’ve dedicated my life vocation to teaching and connecting with others, sharing resources, tools, movement, and products I love, and supporting my students and communities in cultivating a vibrant quality of life and sense of self.
Tending to our own inner environments by tending to the quality of our own consciousness allows us to effectively impact the world around us.
Let’s geek out together through movement, sound, authentic expression, care, and ways we can cultivate our own well-being, which inevitably ripples into the greater good.
