anneli & michael first received each other dancing and felt
that embrace in which two souls re-fuse to become one again    




michael listens to prayers in the wind and hears music. looks into the window "pains" of the heart and feels rhythm, touches the world through movement and knows spirit. he invites you to collaborate as we co-create this journey together. michael reaches through dance rather than teaches to dance. he has been dancing since being pushed through the birth canal. after receiving a bachelor of fine arts degree from ucla he performed and choreographed in companies both nationally and internationally for 15 years. he met gabrielle roth early in 1994. later that year, at the request of gabrielle, he began teaching the 5rhythms. michael got his 5rhythms certification in 1998 and teacher certification in soul motion in 2001. he has been a 16 year student of continuum montage with susan harper and his teaching of the 5rhythms and soul motion has been greatly influenced by her mentoring. he is a certified esalen massage practitioner since 1995 and is passionate about the art of touch. michael met anneli ........    and the world stopped. he is incurably and hopelessly in love and that constant smile on his face is the result of a heart that has been touched by an angel lightly draped in human skin. in october of 2011 they were blessed with the ultimate miracle; his name is jaylan kyan

and he is the physical expression of their living love. michael hates talking about himself in the third person and hopes to see you in person somewhere within the dance.

 

 "michael inspires us with his passionate love of movement and his
amazing capacity for full bodied, soulful articulation. he is a teacher of
integrity who teaches with gentleness as he helps us awaken in our senses,
our bodies, and in our lives. "    susan harper
