A mental wellness course for elite level teen dancers because a well-rounded artist is strong in body and mind.
I’m Auti
I’m so happy you’re here! I’m a former high-performing dancer who grew up in the competitive and collegiate dance scene. These days, I’m a mental health therapist, and I still dance and teach because movement will always be home for me. I created this course as an uplifting space where dancers can build confidence, feel supported, and grow both mentally and emotionally.
