JoyfulMotion represents my offering of classes, workshops, one-on-one therapies, creative projects and community connections that support the experience of somatic awareness, energetic sensing and joyful expression!

We are fluid-based beings, with incredible potential for ease. If we give our bodies the freedom to express, with commitment to relaxation, awareness and compassion, we can unearth deep creativity, inspired thinking, embodied wisdom and joy.

What happened to The Clinic Upstairs?
Having owned and operated The Clinic Upstairs Massage Therapy and Wellness Centre for ten years, it was time for a change. The clinic closed its doors May 2010, and joyfulmotion.ca now becomes the gathering space for my present moment explorations. I've moved my practice to the west end of Ottawa and teach at a variety of locations around town. All the practitioners from the clinic carry on in new locations. Heartfelt thanks to all who climbed the stairs for all those years!
