Meet your guide, the woman behind Embody & Rise:
Alison Rothman MA CYT brings to this practice as a beloved community resource. She has a passion for supporting others in growing and healing in a safe and welcoming environment. She believes so strongly in the medicine in movement and in the power of community. Bridging conscious movement in safe community provides the platform for healing in immeasurable ways.
Women’s Intutive Dance Practice
Movement is medicine. We all know that when we move our bodies, we feel better. Period.
However, how we move our bodies does make a difference.
The body needs diversity in the movement...it needs permission to move how it intuitively needs to... it needs the space to breathe and open and reconnect and ground and unwind.
When we lose ourselves in dance, we find a sense of wholeness and connection. When we dance we get out of our heads and into our bodies, we connect to the here and now.
Embody & Rise: Dancing in Community is a guided, free-form dance and embodiment experience — a space to move, breathe, share and connect with yourself and others in an uplifting circle.
We connect with our beautiful bodies, shake out the gunk from our systems, create some space from within, and tap into some joy, connection, and perspective. There is no dance experience necessary. There are no expectations in this space.
No steps to follow. No format to stay on or stay in.
This is a space for you to come and be with yourselves, with your beautiful bodies, with your hearts, and with the intention of following your own inner rhythm of need and connection with yourself exactly where you are in this moment.
Alison has been connecting women in safe spaces through retreats, events, circles, coaching, and other holistic wellness practices for decades and this offering is an opportunity to dip into the work. She is passionate about holding these containers for women to come, connect, be, feel, open, grow, and heal.
When we can blend the freedom of movement with the intimacy, authenticity, and vulnerability of connection in community...healing happens.
Magic happens each time we enter this sacred space. We come as we are full of courage and vulnerability. We leave a bit more transformed.

What Women are Saying
“Transformative and Nurturing - Alison's Dancing In Community class was full of life! Her intuitive, nurturing nature creates such a safe, caring space. As someone new to movement classes and women's circles, I was surprised how comfortable I felt sharing my heart. The rhythmic music and collective safety allowed me to dance like I haven't in years - it's also a solid full-body workout at your own pace. I entered seeking grounding and found so much more. I felt renewed. Highly recommend for anyone looking for genuine connection and a somatic body release.”
~ Hope Kleist
“I have been regularly attending the Dancing in Community Practice with Alison for the past year. I can honestly say that I look forward to it every time it is offered!! It has changed so much for me in my life and truly does enhance my relationship with myself and my body. The safe and welcoming environment, the laughter and connections, the movement (both smaller and more wild!), and sharing have created such a transformational experience for myself and I know so many others. I am so grateful that Alison keeps offering it month after month!”
