Nia Instructor

Sacred Sol
   
Katherine received her Nia White Belt in the beginning of 2002. Shortly after that, she discovered TranceDance with Wilbert Alix, a neo-shamanic approach to experiencing an inner spiritual journey to self-discovery and healing. This led her to study Somatic Psychology at Naropa University. With a passion for self-exploration, dance and travel, Katherine spent several years in other countries exploring the nature of dance in other cultures. She brings her love of dance and influence of dance in other cultures to all of her classes, which include: salsa, merengue, tango, dance-hall reggae, hip-hop, modern, and others. She strives to dance on the edge of who we are by constantly challenging ourselves to go further. Bring yourself, your body, and an open mind. Katherine has recently developed her own form of dance and spiritual expression, Sacred Sol, which she is teaching at Alchemy of Movement.
