How do you want to move in the world? What do you want to invite into your life? Or what do you carry in your body that you want to let go? In an eye-opening, candid conversation, certified Open Floor dance instructor, Courtney Stammler, explores how dance can be a transformative experience of wholeness by healing the body, mind and spirit. Courtney holds a safe space for people to be in their body; to listen and respond to their body in a way that helps them get “unstuck.” Courtney paints vivid images of experiences dancing on the beach to the sounds of tribal drums or dancing in pools of water in Costa Rica as part of her international retreats. “The movement informs us and when we are open to the possibilities, the healing can occur,” she says. Courtney speaks with integrity and pulls from a deep pool of wisdom not only as a haler, but as a dancer of life. Her experience as a professor and teacher holds space for each client to find themselves in their unique rhythms to experience infinite possibilities joy in their playfulness, creativity and self exploration. “Dance is a constant inquiry where the answers reveal themselves.” “Whether it’s the beat of your heart or the pulse of your bloodstream, it will play out for you.” Courtney has been offering healing movement and dance instruction in Long Beach, California and around the world since 2004 in weekly classes and both domestic and international retreats. She is certified as a Nia Black Belt instructor, an Open Floor Teacher, a Level II Reiki practitioner, and an Earth Magic Practitioner and Meditation Instructor. As with the versatility of dance and healing movement, Courtney also teaches for a variety of groups for specific healing needs or purposes: this ranges from middle and high school groups to private groups, health institutions, and corporate groups. Her greatest JOY is providing a safe space for people to move freely and experience joy in their whole being in any class whether it is a more guided classic Nia experience, a freer Open-Floor experience, or a blended “Dance Journey” class.
