Meditative Dancing and Drawing Lab
This lab is an opportunity to move and draw together in community. Facilitated with Dennis Yelkin, we meet every other Thursday 6:30-8:30pm at Creative Nature Collective.We shift out of our analytical over-thinking minds and into present moment expression. No previous experience in dancing or drawing necessary! We share paper and space. The class is lightly facilitated with meditative drawing and movement scores. It is a container of curiosity and exploration. Much of the time is in silence with some circling and warm-up exercises. All materials provided. Every other Thursday, see LHSC calendar. Suggested donation $5-20

“Lindsay is an excellent instructor! She is patient, clear, and highly experienced. I felt like I learned a lot more than anticipated, due to her efficiency and ability to customize classes on the spot. I recommend her to dancers of all levels, and I look forward to taking a class with her again.” -M
“The atmosphere Lindsay created put me at ease instantly. With that feeling of comfort and safety I felt I was able to really explore my growing edges, which is right where I want to be while out on the dance floor. That is only possible because of the time and effort Lindsay has, over the years, lived at her growing edge.” -J
“Our group had a mix of brand new and more experienced CI dancers. Everyone had a fantastic time and learned something. Lindsay was a great teacher, we highly recommend her private sessions!” -O

1:1 Life Coaching
We collaborate with Nature directly, either meeting outdoors, indoors or online. Through nature-connected practices and reflective listening, I will be beside you guiding you through insights and discoveries. You will come to define attitudes, behaviors, and beliefs that can be shifted. Coaching results in taking action from a place of deeply knowing how you “need to be” to make the life shifts you desire. We will work on setting well-defined actionable goals with accountability in place. In whatever area of life you are seeking support, whether work, relationships, or personal growth, Nature-Connected Coaching supports the process. You will learn that the wisdom and guidance you seek literally surrounds you always, and connects and reflects from within you. $60/hr, sliding scale negotiable. Book a discovery call to learn more.
