THE WORK
Every limiting belief we carry - the separation between us and nature, body and God...every shred of disempowerment - can be traced to a collective story.
Most performance asks the audience just to watch.
Mythic Body asks them to feel it in their own body, and be rewritten, restored at the level of sub-conscious belief.
I write and direct ritual theatre: ancient myths and fairy tales reworked for the modern day - woven by oral storytelling, breath, movement, dance, sound, and presence.
There is a story, a score, a cast, a set. There is also a container: something an audience walks into and doesn't walk out of unchanged.
THE FORM SITS BETWEEN THEATRE AND CEREMONY. IT DRAWS ON OVER A DECADE OF TANTRIC EMBODIMENT TRAINING, SEVEN YEARS OF SOMATIC CLIENT WORK AND A BACKGROUND IN EDUCATION AND RITUAL ARTS.
What it produces is an hour in which the room actually moves,
hearts transform. And magic is real.
I've built these worlds in Toronto, New York, Austin, Paris, Bali, Tulum, Costa Rica, London and Iceland: for festivals, private clubs, VIP experiences, and international retreat communities.
AMATERASU
THE SIGNATURE PIECE
The Japanese sun goddess withdraws into a cave and seals the world in darkness. No one is able to drag or coax her out. She's drawn out: by sound, by laughter, by an extraordinary dance… by something worth returning for.
Amaterasu is a ritual theatre work exploring what the body holds after harm and what it takes to come back into your own light. It is performed through oral storytelling, breath, movement, voice, dance and ritual, held inside a mythic frame the audience enters with us.
Performed at Iceland Eclipse Festival, Skirt Club Paris, and Toronto Tantra Festival.
Running time: 30-60 mins
Cast size: 4-6 performance artists
Adaptable to indoor and outdoor spaces.

WAYS TO WORK
TOGETHER
Mythic Body is the performance work.
Alongside it I facilitate and I speak: two different rooms, the same body of training underneath.
Every one of these starts with a conversation. Tell me about your event and I'll tell you honestly whether it's a fit.
Mythic Body Performance & Custom Mythic Theatre
Not theatre - the same training delivered in talks & embodied workshop
Mythic Body Performance
Ritual theatre piece drawing on the Japanese myth of Amaterasu, the sun goddess who withdraws into darkness and is called back into her own light. Embodied performance and ritual storytelling exploring trauma and the reclaiming of radiance.
Performed at Iceland Eclipse Festival, Skirt Club Paris Retreat, and Toronto Tantra Festival.
Best for: festival main stages, retreat opening or closing ceremonies, temple nights.
Custom Mythic Theatre
New ritual pieces built for your event or festival, developed from concept to performance.
I work from your theme, your land, your community and your mythology — then write, direct and stage the piece around it. Previous commissions have been built for retreat containers of 20-30 women and for festival audiences in the hundreds.
Best for: festivals and retreats with a strong theme, anniversary or milestone events, brand or community moments that need something nobody has seen before.
Lead time: 3 to 6 months
Embodiment Workshops
Active, somatic workshops drawing on years of erotic embodiment and nervous system training. Built for groups ready to move.
Sessions include Orgasmic Manifestation, The Embodied Presence Method for Shame Transmutation and Full Body Sensation, Full Body Energy Orgasm, or a workshop shaped to your programme.
Best for: festival workshop tracks, retreat daytime programming, team or community immersions.
Speaker Talk:
The Embodied Presence Method
A talk on unhooking sacral energy from shame and cultural conditioning, and raising it through the nervous system into focused leadership and presence.
Grounded in nervous system science and over a decade of embodiment training, delivered for audiences who want the mechanism, not the mysticism.
Best for: conference stages, festival talk programmes, leadership and founder audiences.
WHO I WORK WITH
Festival producers. Retreat hosts. Private clubs and members' communities. Event organizers building something that needs more than a keynote and a playlist.
This year I'm creative director and retreat leader for four Skirt Club retreats, bringing Mythic Body to their international community of 27,000 women.
LOVE WORDS
FROM PAST CLIENTS
“I really felt myself in the world. Like I was fully transported there and the current reality melted away. I was fully with each character they felt so real. And I felt myself in each character.”
“That story IS my story. It moved me to the core.”
“This art form is so needed in the world today. It’s ancient and so familiar and it’s modern and feels really fresh.”
“I have never experienced anything like that. Your storytelling is something out of this world. The embodiment of the energy is really impressive. And now I’m a lifelong fan.”
“I just reconnected to my inner child. I feel like I just found a deep part of myself that has been lost for years and I can’t stop crying.”
“And the performance, prayer performance, was so stunning. It was in the jaw on the ground and just stunned in the best ways witnessing your narration and expression and the, yeah, just the combination of all that beauty was phenomenal.”
