TENDER TERRAIN
MAP
DESCRIPTION
What happens when we can't move like we used to?
When our bodies call for slowing, softening, and reimagining the way we dance?
This 4 month program is designed specifically for those navigating physical limitations, temporary or chronic, visible or invisible. Whether you're healing from a recent injury, navigating chronic pain, aging, pregnancy, the journey to menopause, or tending to long-held wounds, TENDER TERRAIN offers a compassionate and supportive space to move, feel, and reconnect.
Rather than pushing through pain or retreating from the dance entirely, we learn to listen more deeply to the messages of the body.
Our changing body becomes a wise guide, asking us to move slower, with more intention, with more curiosity.
In these sessions, you are encouraged to let go of how it should look and lean into how it truly feels.
Through online Zoom sessions, facilitated playlists, and writing prompts, you’ll be gently invited to explore how your changing body can become a teacher. With each beat and breath, you’ll uncover new ways to express, adapt, and listen to the quiet wisdom within, navigating emotional landscapes through movement and mindfulness.

• Four recorded curated movement sets with verbal facilitation by Shauna
• Worksheets and creative inquiries to support your emotional and physical navigation in a framework to honour your pace and limitations with care and presence

This is for all bodies navigating the tender terrain of change, this is a space to move with what is, and to discover what’s still possible. Whether you are long time dancer or new to conscious dance, this is an invitation to explore how it is to live and dance with a change in our body.
Together, we reimagine what it means to move, to participate, to belong.
Together, we learn to navigate the dance floor—and life itself—in new and compassionate ways.
Come as you are.
Move as you can.
Discover how much is still possible.
This journey invites you to honour your resilience, your story, and your body's ever-evolving truth.
NOTES
In December of 2024, while skiing, I sustained a major knee injury and in December 2025 I had surgery on my ACL and meniscus, both have been a gift and a teaching. As I continue to navigate life not being able to show up as I am used to, I have had to double down on kindness towards myself and learn how to ask and receive support. My somatic awareness has also deepened: each step I take is a meditation, physically slowing down has given me more awareness of my nervous system, and I am finding new ways to express, sweat, and be with my body.
This injury and surgery have changed how I move, and it has deepened how I listen.
Through this program, I hope to offer you support and gentle invitations to join me in exploring a new relationship with your body, one rooted in curiosity, compassion, and possibility."
