SCHEDULE UPDATE

There will be no class October 2, as I will be in my own movement research immersion of the year at the Axis Syllabus Nomadic College. Instead of class, I'll be uploading and sharing practice recordings of a special Equinox retreat I'm hosting this Friday.

To our shared resilience,

Michelle
