YOU ARE
IN MOTION
Evidence-based somatic education, holistic movement therapy, and functional yoga in Sarasota FL & beyond.
WHAT IF THE SHAME, TENSION, AND DISCONNECTION YOU’VE CARRIED FOR YEARS COULD SOFTEN…
and was replaced by a calm, confident knowing that your body is your safest, most poetic place to be?
Imagine feeling powerful, present, and at home in your body — not because you finally fixed it, but because you learned to listen to it.
reclaiming your voice, your sensations, your full range of emotion — and learning to move through life with more ease, pleasure, and sovereignty than you thought possible.
When you join Poetic Body programs, you offer yourself the opportunity to reconnect with your nervous system, body, and emotional landscape — so that you may live a full life in your unique, exceptional poetic body.
This work is about coming back to yourself —
YOU WERE PUT ON THIS EARTH TO THRIVE

The Mission
At the poetic body, we blend the soul of yoga with the science of movement therapy guiding you to reclaim your body, power, and sensuality.
Through trauma informed somatic practices, dance, deep self-connection, and community building with other women, we help you move beyond fear, shame, and disconnection-so you can feel vibrant, liberated, and fully alive in your own skin.
Our work is a bridge between science and soul, education and embodiment, strength and softness- so that you are your most aligned, audacious, and authentic self in all aspects of your life.

How I Can Support You
-
Offered as both a 1-1 deep dive program and a seasonal group program, S&S is for the woman who is ready to embody the fullness of her femininity, celebrate her sexuality, and release any shame holding her back from claiming the sensual & sovereign woman within. Sensual & Sovereign was midwifed through my own healing journey from the trauma, shame and disconnection my body experienced from multiple sexual assaults in my late twenties & early thirties.
EXPLORE S+S

(Co-Ed) MVMT THERAPY encompasses my unique approach to holistic movement by marrying my trainings in physical therapy, yoga, primal vinyasa, and fascia rolling.

Hi, I’m Jessica
But I go by Jess!
Feminine Embodiment Facilitator, Movement Therapist, Physical Therapist Assistant
I believe that women are more powerful because of, not in spite of, their feminine sensuality.
With a little nudge and lots of compassion, I shed light on the areas that you may have blocked yourself from receiving your feminine gifts, and with my multidisciplinary approach, I offer you the tools and practices to reawaken your feminine gifts for a life that is wholly lived with passion, presence, and poise.
"May you move through life as poetry in motion—audacious & authentically, you."
Poetry is in my blood.
My father is a musician, writing his original songs from the poetry of his life.
I get my creative, dreamer, entrepreneur spirit from him so it’s no surprise I would inherent his love for prose as well.
It was in fact a poem that I wrote on the cliffs of Big Sur that shaped the trajectory of the work you see here now.
When I hear the word poetry my mind instantly goes to something artistic & beautiful.
It’s unique. It can be light and airy and it can be dark and deep. When I describe my work with women, specifically the feminine archetypes, I speak to the dichotomy that many women feel especially in the work and home life.
You get to be so many versions of yourself: the artist and the muse, the wild woman and the maiden, the devoted partner and creative queen.
Being me is a piece of beautiful poetry when I’m doing it authentically and audaciously aligned. That’s the kind of knowing I desire for all women to feel and embody for themselves.
Poetry in relation to the body represents fluidity and beauty. It looks and feels like a woman who is capable and free to move, express, and be how she desires and isn’t concerned with how the world may interpret her art.
You are an extraordinary work of art babe.
You are poetry in motion.
