Girls lead the way

Always

Liberating the creative life force is, in fact, revolutionary. If a young person can dream something and know that they have the capacity to create something from nothing, they have both the awareness and internal muscle to do what their soul calls them to do.

Golden Girls Global Founder

I relate to my training as one would relate to a compass and a map. One requires a lifelong practice of orienting to what is true through my own embodiment. The other guides me in ever-changing terrain by providing a lineage of wisdom, tools, practices, and principles to reference when I need council.

The dance is a way for me to explore my inner landscape: processing emotions, reconnecting to my needs, learning my boundaries, developing self awareness, and deepening my connection to the environment. The dance constantly helps me to create inner space, and it provides a safe and sacred container for myself and others which allows us to move through challenging situations and processes.

I am on a mission to create the best form of myself, actualized into being the wildest dreams of my ancestors. I have become, and I will never stop becoming. I am thankful for this community of global sisterhood and the work that bridges our very different practices and communities. May we all continue to rise up.

I identify as gender fluid. Sometimes I feel very feminine, sometimes very masculine, and sometimes I feel neutral.

I find working ongoing with the girls has allowed the opportunity to stretch their capacity to speak authentically and listen from the heart. Over the years, I have seen a softening and a welcoming in that space.
