Somatic Safety
is the throne upon which we
sit, dance, pray
Are you ready to go within?
Hi, I'm Ali.
I'm a somatic educator and counselor. I support my clients through somatic-emotional release and mapping their internal emotional landscape.
When you work with me, we primarily lean into Somatic Release, Bio-Emotive Focusing, Voice-Dialogue, and Authentic Movement. This work helps us to clear roadblocks and integrate parts of ourselves we may have otherwise disowned. This inner work becomes the foundation to clearing the way for peaceful contemplations of what could be the next in your evolution.
I'm also the founder of the Relational Dojo, a space were kind humans meet to co-create curious and courageous conversations, as well as the co-founder of Sacred Somatic Events, a sober, somatic dance event that warmly guides participants into full-spectrum self-expression in 3 hour to day-long retreats. I am the head facilitator and program creator at the Bio-Emotive Framework, hosting Emotional Clearing Circles, a co-created space of safety, for humans to practice healthy emotional processing.
My primary trainings are in Counseling, Expressive Arts, Bio-Emotive Processing and Somatic Education. I also have 260+ YTT for Kundalini Yoga, Trained as a T3 Circling Facilitator through the Integral Center and have 15 years+ practice in Dharma and am certified under Upasaka Culadasa and Junpo Roshi as meditation teachers in their lineages. I am of Metis Heritage, living in Territory 1, learning to work with my Swampy Cree, French, Polish-Ukranian, and Highland lineages.
My work is informed by 10+ years of working as a trained actor and my understanding of the human condition has been deeply influenced by my time working in foster-care, as well as running a 40,000 sq. art-space in the inner-city of Winnipeg, where we worked with artists, new-comers, and people of all socio-economic standings.
“I wholeheartedly recommend both the Relational Dojo and the Emotional Clearing Circle offerings. These practices have been profound touchstones on my journey of cultivating deeper somatic awareness and relational presence. Ali facilitates with warmth, skill, and professional integrity."

“I started meeting with Ali during a particularly difficult time, and through our work together I feel much more grounded, stable, and empowered. She is both empathetic and attuned, creating a safe and supportive space to process challenging emotions, particularly around anger and grief.”

“This is bar-none the best space I’ve found, for anyone looking to expand their relational capacity. The practices are detailed and precise, but the experience is always novel and enlivening. After one month, I can already feel myself bringing these practices into the rest of my life.”
— Adam Luck
