I’m a certified instructor for Shake Your Soul®/Yoga Dance teacher and a Registered Somatic Movement Therapist (RSMT) in addition to my psychotherapy practice.
Shake Your Soul® is a dynamic movement experience that blends the joyful spirit of dance with the mindful body–mind connection of yoga and qi gong. This expressive practice combines guided, fluid movement with moments of free dance, inviting you to reconnect with your body, your senses, and the community around you.
Get out of your head and into your body! classes are:
Fun & freeing – less about “getting it right” and more about finding your own authentic movement
Meditative & mindful – supporting release of stress and connection to breath
Empowering – inviting you to awaken your energy, sensuality, and joy
Accessible – designed for all levels of movement or dance experience
Shake Your Soul is not about performance—it’s about presence. It’s about celebrating our loving natures, releasing what’s been held, and reconnecting to the fluidity of our bodies and spirits. Through this practice, you may find yourself:
■ Relaxing your nervous system
■ Releasing grief, stress, or “stuck” energy
■ Cultivating joy, liberation, and vitality
■ Tapping into your body’s wisdom and resilience
Whether you are seeking movement as meditation, an energizing workout, or a playful return to your creative self, Shake Your Soul offers a pathway back to wholeness.
About Marcus and Shake Your Soul
In addition to my psychotherapy practice, I teach Shake Your Soul as a way to help individuals and communities connect through movement. While this practice is not psychotherapy, it often supports emotional release, embodiment, and well-being in complementary ways.
I am a certified Shake Your Soul®/Yoga Dance teacher and a Registered Somatic Movement Therapist (RSMT). I love sharing this work because it brings people together in a joyful, soulful way—and reminds us that healing and expression can also be playful.
