Michiyo - Dance Instructor and Movement Educator

She loves moving her body. After becoming a dance instructor, Michiyo wanted to take herself to another level as a dancer and instructor. So she committed to practicing Pilates and studying Franklin Method®. This allowed her to understand the body mechanics, gain strength, release the tension, and embody the movement through imagery. Michiyo has developed a unique approach to helping others who want to be better dancers or simply move better.
