The Fluid System is composed of an interrelated layering of circulatory systems transporting nourishment & cleansing every level of body tissue. The life of each cell of the body is sustained through a dynamic flow of a variety of life-sustaining fluids which includes the arterial & venous blood flow, lymphatic system, cerebral spinal fluid, synovial fluid, intercellular and cellular fluids.
By engaging with each fluid’s distinctive quality of sensation & rhythmical flow a fuller spectrum and quality of expression enhances cellular vitality, influences more balanced breathing, and stimulates quality change in our sensory perception, bodily awareness, ease of movement, and resonance of sound.
Using breath, voice, and movement to stimulate awareness of the fluids as a vibratory/resonant presence and moving force through the entire body influences our expressive vitality, sound, and movement flow.

Active Breath is an innovative somatic practice focused on integrating our awareness of the intrinsic connection between body, mind, and emotions through our physical/sensory experience of our breath, voice, and movement.
It is a practical approach for cultivating and deepening your embodiment skills, building resilience, and developing conscious attention in your daily lived experience.

What People Are Saying:
“The active breath brings me more clarity of mind. It shows me that for real transformation I can trust my body intelligence. I experience that the feeling and embodied state bring me more details and holistic information, it puts things together!”
Lien Bossuyt ~ neurodiverse educator for children
“I definitely notice a consistent buoyancy and vitality that comes from doing a session with you. My voice feels effortless and the breath feels like it is organically integrated throughout my body, as opposed to the mechanical approach that often comes with formal vocal training.”
Julia Jamison ~ theater and voice professor
“I experience how the Active Breath connection with my voice and the knowledge of the function of the body systems influences my awareness and feeling of well-being. It becomes a process, an alive, defined experience – this lets me feel more present, more resting, more “rich”.”
Amanda XueHai ~ Pilates & Yoga Teacher
