About Erin
Through my work as a movement facilitator, bodyworker, educator and storyteller I aim to encourage people to find dynamic ease, relaxation and a captivated sense of gratitude for our bodies and by extension, our humanity and our capacity for wholeness and appreciation for our lives.
I’ve facilitated movement/dance fitness for over 18 years, for hundreds of students in local studios, as faculty at UNM at destination retreats. In my Som∂lchemy Movement classes, come enjoy great music, fun and movement exploration; I invite you to simply show up as you are!
I’m also a licensed massage therapist and former educator in ethics, anatomy and physiology, sports massage, myofascial massage and specific massage. I currently run a referral based private practice.
