FAQs
-
Feeling awkward and uncomfortable is a part of the experience. Learning to embody our emotions can be surprising, intense and difficult. All of your emotions are welcome. To make the space more accessible, the lights will be low.
-
No, you can just come and work it through. The body is the guide so we create space for the body to move through whatever it needs.
-
I offer discounted rates to those disproportionately harmed by racism, capitalism and colonialism. This policy aligns with my value of reciprocity, to return some of what has been taken through extraction by myself, my family, and my somatic lineages. I wish to make my work specifically accessible to those with ancestry from which I have benefited most: those of Costa Rican, East Asian, Indigenous East Asian, South Asian, Yoruba, Romani, Black Northern American and African Northern American, Chicano and Latinx descent.

Reflections
-I slept soundly that night and my dreams were safe and positive.
-Simple and effective - come! ~Ewelina
-Thank you for your work and creating the opportunity to practice, move through and process in community.
-For someone, where letting out grief and rage has been really difficult for, this was a release I have needed most of my life. I feel a clarity in my life that is comforting, scary and exciting. I have always been a people pleaser and was always careful to make sure other people's feelings and emotions where cared for before my own. Showing anger or rage around other people growing up was forbidden. I can probably count on one hand the amount of time I showed anger or rage out in public in my forty years on this planet. So this event, this experience felt amazing. Thank you so much and I can't wait until the next one. ~Benny
-I see that this practice is a safe and healthy way to summon these emotions. It's clear that having an outlet like this would keep me from seeking the emotional release elsewhere and would definitely improve my life. So, THANK YOU!!!!!!! I didn't know what to expect, and this was a really important realization and a big step in my healing and growth process.
-If ecstatic dance had a baby with somatic processing/release work, the baby would be Muck & Mire. It is a safe place to embody and feel through anger and grief so they can be integrated and not seep out of me at inopportune times.
-Thank you so much for this space! I’m going through a tough time and being able to express these heavy emotions was super healing. I never allow them to take space in my body in an intentional way, so I really appreciate all the tools, discussions and your empowering guidance <3
