"I entered the Dancemeditation™ Intensive Training as means of self-inquiry and expansion. The changes I've experienced have, over time, in a subtle yet pervasive way, penetrated every aspect of my life from eating to movement to touch to breathing. I encourage you to give yourself precious time in retreat to learn and experience this vital life-long path. Your beauty and individual inner essence will be revealed, invoking positive change and spiritual growth. The techniques and processes you learn in Teacher Training will create an essential foundation for teaching and inspire the desire to share these sublime practices with others."
—Stephanie Rudloe, Designer, Certified Dancemeditation™ Teacher
