Earth Body Move
Saturday 9am-10:00am CT
May 27, 2023
Led by Rachel Tate (they/she)
Join Rachel for the invitation to move your earth body in curious ways. This class is not defined by curriculum, rather the season and events that affect us all in various ways. Each class will begin with a conversation on the experience of felt sensation that might inform the class focus, followed by exploratory shapes, movement, and somatic practices aimed at supporting the individual.
For example, a class during the summer months could look like: focus on balancing heat held within our bodies with heart nourishing self care, shapes, and movements.

Meet Rachel
Massage therapist and Movement Guide
For nearly 15 years, I have been working as a health and wellness professional serving various communities. Within my experience as a provider and patient, I have developed the ability to create comforting environments that invite regulation, supported by various tools and resources. In each space I hold, I seek to meet the individuals in my community where they are, in each moment.
As a massage therapist & movement guide, I believe the core of why I do this work is to develop supportive connections with others, earth, and myself. Stemming from my value in relationship, is my great curiosity and interest in how our bodies function and experience life on this planet.
I aim to support others in the ongoing journey of self and communal connection. I am especially passionate about fostering the relationship to our earth body, and enjoy sharing tools and resources to enhance personal rituals. Through my ever evolving practice and continuing education, I strive to consistently develop and offer quality care for those I have the privilege of communing with.
