Joanna was not always a happy, confident person. She has spent the last 25 years on a journey of transformation, through a roller coaster of emotions, to emerge with gathered wisdom to be present for you. Through a closed container and sacred space, her retreats offer a nurturing, safe environment for release and healing.  She has recently been dubbed Goddess of Relaxation and Transformation.

Joanna has studied Bodywork and Holistic Health Counseling with Patricia Cramer of the World School of Massage, Breema Bodywork with the Breema Center,  Zen Shiatsu through Kris Schaefer at Providence Institute, holds an Advanced Trainer Certificate in the The Nurtured Heart Approach and completed the Spiritual Lifestyle Program at Kriplau Center for Yoga and Health.  It was there that she discovered Toni Bergins and JourneyDance. In one hour with Toni, she felt like she had come “home” and knew instantly that she needed to lead this kind of work for others. She got her first JourneyDance training in 2007 and has been guiding them ever since. In december 2012, she completed module 2, deepening her connection to its transformational power, and in May 2014, she completed Module 3. 

As a yoga teacher and certified JourneyDance Facilitator, Joanna has led groups on transformational retreats since 2008,  including an annual week of classes at Omega Institute. Joanna believes dance and yoga can be enjoyed by people of all shapes, sizes, and abilities, and her passion is empowering her students to embody their natural expression and create their practices through inner experience rather than outward aesthetics.

Joanna holds a mirror for you, to see yourself as she sees you: a perfectly imperfect being, a living work of art, always transforming, yet always complete.

Ben's purpose in life is simple and profound: to be of service.  As a husband, a father, a son, a friend and a retreat facilitator, Ben finds his greatest joy in serving the whole of life through serving others. His warm heart, sincere smile and loving, grounded presence adds a level of depth and safety to every retreat.  He is the go-to person for all questions, is always there to lend a hand, give a hug, find a missing shoe or wake you gently in the morning with a sweet word.  Ben is the rock who holds the retreats firmly to the earth so we may grow and expand, while remaining safe and nurtured.
