EMBODIED PARTNER COACHING
EFFECTIVE 'VIRTUAL' SESSIONS AVAILABLE THROUGH ZOOM

Picture
As a Radical Aliveness explorer, you receive a custom blend of all of my skills and wisdom and most importantly, my laser Presence.

Together we invite transformation; of your self-image; of how you relate with yourself, how you relate with others, and how you relate to life. 
Practice sessions are available for individuals as well as friends and partners. Since this work is so relational, working with your partner can create wonderful shifts in your relationship.

We work in person, by phone, on Zoom, in classes and workshops, and if desired,  at local dance venues.  We can also work with video feedback. Set up a CONSULTATION SESSION to discuss your needs and together we will craft a unique and individualized coaching partnership.

Partners have benefited greatly with my approach that focuses on connecting through contact. My approach is simple, safe and semi-structured.  This has proven to be a very powerful way to uncover any unconscious patterns that limit expression of genuine, open intimacy, and to resolve and move beyond them.  It's truly amazing how simple, direct and effective this method is for expanding one's capacity for, and comfortability with intimacy. Not to mention how fun and delightful it is to rediscover the pleasure of moving and relating in mutual support.

"Mary and I have LOVED what we learned, and looking forward to more….
You are certainly at the top of our list

​"Harmony has a unique capacity for deep listening both verbally and non-verbally. A skill that she has refined through exploring and learning to trust movement as a vehicle for personal growth. 

When I first came to her studio, (in person,) I was able to express parts of myself that were difficult for me to share. She welcomed everything
without judgement and showed me that I could transform self doubt and self criticism into personal strength.

When I returned to my home in Europe, I asked Harmony to continue coaching with me by Skype.

Each month we had a one hour Skype session where I shared the difficulties I was encountering in my family life and in my life in general. Harmony always helped me find some pathway that led me to grow through those difficulties. This strengthened my sense of self-responsibility, my freedom, my autonomy and my capacity to accept myself.

Sometimes, even though we were not together physically,  Harmony would find some analogy with body movement, and together, watching each other through our Skype cameras, we would both stand and experiment with particular postures or movement patterns.

If I had to summarize the help Harmony gave me I would say : Harmony helped me to welcome my unique life, in my own perfect originality.

Although I’ve paused our regular monthly sessions, I feel secure in knowing that she is still available. I know I can return to her for support and coaching, and that she will be there to help me to reconnect with my essential self."
  -- Agathe Crispel; published author and mother living in Belgium
"This work can save you many years of therapy - and on top of that, it's pleasurable. It really exemplifies the new thought that healing and wholeness are one and the same thing."
--Nora Hoffman, musician

“Harmony possesses a rare ability to be present, real, and clear in relationship. In her work, she refrains from the subtle projections, evaluations, assumptions and expectations that usually permeate the communications and relationships we have with each other, and that influence our self-perceptions. Harmony created a spaciousness wherein I was able to have a truly authentic experience of my self, while connecting deeply with her. The time I spent in touch with her, and in her presence, allowed me to realize that I don’t need to look anywhere except inside myself for acceptance, direction, and truth.“
