Welcome!

You’re invited to be curious, explore, experiment, express, connect, create, change, heal, learn, and grow here. I offer group workshops and one-to-one sessions which facilitate deep connection to one’s inner and outer landscapes, provide creative nourishment, encourage artful expression, foster compassionate community, and support personal and collective healing and growth through somatic expressive arts practices.

I don’t create because I know; From Thinking to Sensing — a sketch 2026 intentions: more laughter, more art-making, and this "From Thinking to Sensing - navigating life's changes and challenges through the wisdom of your body” Messy… If your heart could speak, what would it say? Heart to heart… Calling all writers, movers, believers in the transformative and healing powers of Creativity and Community, and anyone else curious about a somatic approach to poetic writing! #somaticpoetry #thebodyspeaks

“Krystal’s workshop was a wonderful adventure for me. I began full of curiosity, but with some trepidation, being neither a dancer nor a poet. Krystal’s clear and gentle guidance quickly put me at my ease. I was amazed by how music and movement could affect my creativity! Unexpected ideas and images seemed to flow easily from the dance and the prompts to explore each movement more fully. As a visual artist, I have always valued creativity. Now I am eager to pursue this new avenue for tapping into the creative flow.”

“I experienced the class as having been led through time and space to a place of curiosity. One in which I could languish in and play. With creativity in our tool belt and images of nature, Krystal led us to experience the present time in our bodies. We essentially stopped time by turning off our brain’s auto-pilot and engaged the fun gear.”

“Krystal knew how to hold a structured yet non-judgmental space for us as movers to discover pieces of ourselves that can really only be unfolded in a space this specific. It was very impactful to have a scheduled time to attune to my body and allow space for whatever surfaced and then transfer that onto paper in a way I never had before. It felt explorative and cathartic. It also gave me space to explore my own writing, which I had been avoiding for years. Through this, I recognized some metaphors and symbolism that helped me understand myself and how I’ve been coping through certain life events. And through my writing, I connected with others outside of the workshop about poetry and vulnerability.”

“I have attended several workshops offered by Krystal.  It is always an exceptional experience – one that fills my soul. Krystal is a student of life and therefore a unique gem of a teacher. She is absolutely authentic and completely genuine about everything that she offers. She is a living embodiment of all that she has learned. Furthermore, she digs deep into the study of human behavior and shares her wisdom like a kind, supportive friend would. Each time I attend one of Krystal’s classes I feel nourished, re-charged, with a clearer perspective of what is true. I strongly encourage anyone interested in becoming more healthy and balanced in mind, body and soul to check out what Krystal is offering – your life will undoubtedly improve just by knowing her.”

“I always feel fantastic, in mind, body, and spirit, after taking a class from Krystal!”
