Pelvic Floor Barre

Rooted in my lifelong study of dance, somatics, and physical theater, Pelvic Floor Barre began as a way to help women access the layered muscular intelligence of Middle Eastern dances. In 2004, I began cross-referencing the isolations and articulations of Middle Eastern dance with the precision of Meyerhold Biomechanics, which is central to physical theater. My goal was to simplify movement mechanics—to translate what looks complex on stage into accessible patterns in the body. The result was a method that helped women identify and engage the specific muscles and joints involved in each movement, particularly those of the lower core and pelvic region.

Over time, what began as a dance teaching practice evolved into something far more powerful. As I deconstructed these movements somatically, I realized they held profound therapeutic potential. Pelvic Floor Barre became a full-bodied somatic modality—designed to restore pelvic vitality, support emotional release, and build resilience. I’ve now taught this practice to thousands of women around the world, and the response continues to move me. Women report deep muscular, joint and emotional release. PFB has supported healing from hip and psoas injuries, incontinence, postpartum recovery, and even offered renewed mobility for those with hip replacements. I’m honored to share this work—an embodied path to pelvic strength, creative power, and grounded, centered well-being.  I deliver PFB through regular classes, workshops, and personalized one-on-one sessions.
