CHOREOGRAPHY
While creating work, it is crucial that the movement comes from a visceral urge, feeling or intention in the body. Although this may look different on a variety of people, the intention remains the same. Willow's creative process focuses solely on the mover's personal strengths whether it is based on physicality, characteristics or performance skills. Through this process, she has learned the importance of honing in on everyone's unique gifts in performing movement. Then, it is only that much simpler to orient movement in space for the stage or on film.

She has been teaching since 2016, with students ranging from ages 5-21. Over time, she has come to find how much love and joy stems from teaching dancers how to expand movement vocabulary, lift confidence and hone in on their performance skills.

REIKI
Reiki is a gentle, spiritually-based Japanese healing practice that promotes wellbeing, mindfulness, resilience and emotional regulation through hands-on healing. It brings the body into a state of restorative relaxation, shifting the recipient's nervous system from sympathetic to parasympathetic. Willow has been trained and certified in Shoden Reiki Level one by Elise Brenner. From this training, she has experienced the serenity in universal connection and has continued to respond with love and kindness whilst practicing Reiki with herself and others.
