“Each body is a lion of courage, something precious of the earth.”

Meet River
LMT, CD, RYT
Hey there! My name is River, my pronouns are she/they, and I identify as queer, genderqueer, and neurodivergent. I am dedicated to an affirming practice for LGBTQIA+ bodies, as well as bodies of all sizes and ages. I am passionate about social justice, liberation, and connection with ourselves, our community and the natural world. I am first generation American, a mother of two small but powerful humans, and reside on the stolen land of the Coast Salish tribes.
I am a lifelong yogi, long distance runner, backpacker, oil painter, and gardener. I’ve traveled extensively throughout my life and feel so grateful for the opportunities I've had to learn from different cultures and ways of living.
The interconnection between all beings is so clear to me. I believe we must attend to the intersection of systemic and personal trauma, including the chronic mental and physical stressors of living under capitalism. I’m constantly in awe of the human body’s ability to learn, heal, adapt, and thrive in all manner of circumstances. As we unlearn patterns and ways of being that no longer serve us, we can allow our bodies to fully process stress and trauma cycles, moving toward new possibilities. You are your own best teacher; the expert on your own body and holistic wellness. As we co-create healing space, I want you to know that you are valued and precious just as you are. My practice is a place where your authentic self is most welcome. I am here to support you and to collaborate as you release, grow, and begin to develop new ways of healthy being in this wondrous journey of life.
