In January 2007, CJ was introduced to Reconnective Healing and experienced a dramatic life changing session that inspired her to begin and follow a heart felt path that has become Energy Moves ®.

CJ's philosophy is that anyone can learn to feel, move, and interact with the energy that supports us from within and around our bodies. Choosing to pay attention playfully while engaging the body through imagery, invites high vibration energy into our physical world, and leads the way to our authentic living.

Drawing from her experiences with Reconnective Healing®, tai chi, yoga, meditation, acupuncture, and various Eastern philosophical studies, CJ bases Energy Moves programs on "Intentions" that reflect our innate ability to Connect, Align, and Allow.

I enjoy making energy awareness understandable to a wide spectrum of people. Energy Moves ® is a meditative healing art movement. My emphasis is on developing one's energy awareness through our vessel, the body. While Tai Chi is based in martial arts, Energy Moves exercises and corresponding visuals are based on "8 Energy Intentions" that reflect our ability perceive and explore our wholeness. We are powerful and can exert our power in beautifully creative ways from that knowing.
