Feminine Embodiment
Feminine Embodiment, as I experience it, is a practice of coming back to our feeling, sensing bodies. It begins on the mat with intentional slowing down, deep listening, and total surrender to whatever is found in the depths of our being. As we keep returning to the wisdom of the body, we attune to our inner compass and discover new ways to navigate life. We no longer operate solely from the head, but from that inner knowing that brings us closer to our wild nature as we continue walking our path with purpose and confidence.
Raindrop Movement
I am a certified teacher of the Raindrop Movement® method. I had the honor of training with Nada Mesqui, alongside a few inspiring women, in 2023. This 6-month apprenticeship completely transformed my relationship to my body.
I learned to slow down, not only on the mat, but as a way of entering each day with intention, staying connected to myself and my surroundings at any given time, offering my most generous presence in every conversation, and honoring my own pace in everything I undertake.
I learned to listen, not only to my body, but through my body as a way of connecting more deeply to all that surrounds me—people, places, nature, creatures, and the subtle fields in between.
I learned to surrender, not only to the dance, but to every opportunity life has been gifting me, for I know now that every step is divinely guided.
I have been offering this medicine ever since, in-person and online, in group and private sessions, and I have witnessed women reconnect to their bodies with grace and compassion. Yes, the awakening of your body and soul can be done safely, softly, and joyfully.
Every Raindrop Movement session follows the same arc. We begin on the ground, in complete stillness, to start regulating our nervous system and find safety in our bodies. We then move through different shapes as we listen to the body through emotions, feelings, and sensations. Finally, we surrender to that inner spark, that impulse of life that moves us from the inside out.
The practice is guided but the movement is free. Each session is a sacred blend of meditation, visualization, breathwork, and intuitive dance.
Aside from Raindrop Movement, I like to experience different methods to expand my personal practice and my teachings. Over the years, I have joined workshops from 5Rhythms, Ecstatic Dance, 360 Emergence, Azul Path, and some more.
1:1 Online Feminine Embodiment Sessions
If the sounds of this practice resonate with you, I would be honored to be your guide.
A Feminine Embodiment session is not a performance, nor a show. There is no choreography. We allow the movement to be born from within. We do not seek beauty—although you are the most beautiful when you let your wild self be seen. We do not seek anything at all. In fact, this is a place of being, not doing. Nothing is expected of you and no experience is needed—only the curiosity to get to know your body.
The journey is one-hour long and all you need is:
-
Comfortable clothes to move in
-
A mat
-
A blanket
-
A bottle of water
-
A journal and a pen
Each session is 59 euros. You can book it directly via my Calendly and I will arrange payment with you later on. You can choose between credit card, bank transfer, or PayPal.
Let me take you home to your body.

I feel like I am finally breathing, not only to survive, but to enjoy.
