and has shared these gifts throughout Canada, the U.S. and Australia.
She believes that learning through experience is a
powerful way to know oneself. If we can free ourselves
from limiting judgements we can learn to 'hear' the inner vibrations
created by our own movement and sound. If we can acknowledge
that our critical mind has a right to its opinion and then get
on with being present to ourselves, perhaps we can "sing like we don't need the money, love like we'll never get
hurt, dance like there's nobody watching........"Garnet Rogers |
