"This form of dance is so much fun. It is freeing for your spirit, mind, and is an awesome workout for your body! My life is so much fuller and happier having this method of movement and dance in my life. It was, and is, a dream come true to train with Kendra and delve into Planet Motion as a teacher. Kendra has a unique and fabulous way of bringing dance into a whole new realm - it takes you on the most amazing journeys within and expressing out. She inspires me. Planet Motion inspires me. I aspire to inspire! My passion is dance, always has been, and I imagine always will be. As a kid I danced to Motown in the Projects with my hoodlum friends. We got down and crazy! Planet Motion has this funk and cutting edge dance that reminds me of those times! It also has the elegance and rhythm and creativity of performing as a dancer, expressing her art. I love the interpretive elements of Planet Motion dance, as well as the structured, rhythmic, and fun choreography that keeps your mind engaged. It is an amazing form of expression and movement." As a principal dancer for one of Seattle's pre-eminent modern dance companies, Gea also danced professionally with many master choreographers and teachers in NY and Seattle. Dancing with spirit and passion while very focused on the technical and classical elements of dance, Gea enthusiastically shares her love, knowledge and experience of dance and movement in a fun, structured, positive environment, filled with Gratitude. "Dance is a powerful, magical form of expression. The language of the heart and soul. Movement to be enjoyed by all! Bring in the abunDANCE!" Cheers! Gea!

I think Kendra (the teacher) called it Meditation in Motion, really helped ground me in my body cause I was pretty nervous not ever having done this class before. And then Kendra launched in to this totally funky, fun, work your butt music and dance that was... not really that hard to follow. It took me a few times, but I got some of it. The energy of the class was infectious. I left feeling exhilarated, sweaty and busy trying to figure out when I could do this Planet Motion thing again." -- Kim, Lyons, CO |
Gea fell in love with Planet Motion a few years ago, after having spent years as a professional modern dancer and pro rock climber.
