OUR STORY
OUR STORY
In 2009, after having my daughter, I hit rock bottom.
I was overwhelmed, emotionally numb, and constantly weighed down by guilt and anxiety. I looked fine on the outside, but inside I was struggling. I couldn’t keep going through the motions, feeling half-alive — something had to change.
That’s when I turned back to two things that saved my life: African dance and a deeper relationship with God.
Movement became my way of releasing all the emotional pain I had held inside for years. Dancing helped me express what I couldn’t put into words. It gave me access to parts of myself I had lost in survival mode.
WHY CHOOSE GDT
Why Choose Genesis Dance Therapy (GDT)?
Genesis Dance Therapy (GDT) is a Christ-centered, science-supported healing method that helps women release emotional trauma, regulate their nervous system, and reconnect with their God-given identity — through movement, scripture, and neuroscience.
Whether you’re a mom carrying guilt, a high-achieving woman battling burnout, or someone who feels emotionally stuck despite prayer and therapy — GDT offers a path to real healing.
Genesis Dance Therapy is a unique healing approach that blends African dance, movement-based psychotherapy, faith-based insights, and neuroplasticity principles. It’s designed to release stored trauma, ease chronic pain, improve mental health and help you reconnect with your body and purpose.
African dance involves fluid, rhythmic movements that naturally help unlock tension in areas like the hips, shoulders, and spine—places where trauma and stress often accumulate. Its dynamic nature also boosts circulation, elevates mood, and encourages emotional release.
While Genesis Dance Therapy is rooted in the transformative wisdom of the Word of God, it’s open to anyone seeking deeper healing. The faith component offers hope and a sense of purpose, but no specific religious background is required.
Neuroplasticity refers to the brain’s ability to form new neural pathways. Through guided movement, coaching, and positive reinforcement, Genesis Dance Therapy helps replace old, harmful thought patterns with healthier, more supportive ones for lasting change.
Chronic pain often stems from emotional trauma stored in the body. Gentle yet effective African dance movements help release tension and stress in tight muscle areas, offering relief and improved mobility over time.
Yes. Genesis Dance Therapy addresses the root causes of mental health struggles by releasing stored emotional trauma, reshaping thought patterns, and providing tools for better mood regulation and stress management.
No dance background is required. The focus is on mindful movement, not on perfect choreography. The steps are adapted to your comfort level, ensuring everyone can participate safely and effectively.
The program is designed with busy individuals in mind, offering flexible sessions and efficient techniques that provide significant benefits without requiring hours in a traditional gym setting.
Absolutely. The movements can be modified for people of different ages, body types, and physical conditions. The goal is to meet you where you are, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for all.
While everyone’s journey is unique, many participants notice improvements—such as reduced tension or enhanced mood—after a few sessions. Consistent practice leads to deeper, more lasting transformations.
They can be combined or offered separately, depending on your needs. Some sessions focus heavily on dance and movement, while others include coaching conversations and spiritual insights. In many cases, I blend both seamlessly in a single session—beginning with physical release through dance and then using coaching to help you process emotions, gain clarity, and move forward with confidence.
