Parashakti’s shamanic healing work is born of more than two decades of experience facilitating workshops, trainings, and retreats around the world, in Los Angeles, New York, Mexico, Bali, Guatemala, Indonesia, Israel, and Greece. She’s been certified as an Integral Yoga teacher, a Kundalini yoga teacher, Esalen Massage Practitioner, and have studied with some of the world’s most revered spiritual Masters, including Swami Satchidananda, Anna Halperin, Dr. Gabriel Cousens and Lakota Elder Wakia Un Manee.  

A lifelong dancer, her path as a healer followed a severe injury – a period of what is often called shamanic “dismantling”, after which my mission shifted towards healing. Over the last 20 years, she’s developed the Seven Foundations and the Dance of Liberation™, as maps for her own spiritual practice, living and breathing these foundations in daily ritual.

Since she founded Dance of Liberation™, it’s been practiced by over 10,000 dancers around the globe. It was born of a mission to help people experience ecstasy – without taking it.

Above all, she is dedicated to serving community, creating a sacred container where people feel safe enough to experience their deepest essences, honor their voices, and shine their brightest light.
