…that for the last 8 years i have been deepening knowledge and understanding of methodology of Generative Somatics and it has truly changed my life ❤︎

Since 2019 I have been a teacher assistant and a teacher in practice on the courses of INOURBODIES_ONTHESTREETS collective and this year I finished SOMATIC COACHING COURSE at Strozzi Institute .

I am more than happy to support groups and individual activists with this tools and holistic, politically aware approach so you can contact me if you or your group need this kind of support. I hope to make a website soon that would give more info, but for now, just this small mentioning, about what I also do, next to drawing and fighting for reproductive justice!
