Jack Catton
A lover of dance and community.  He has been practicing yoga for 20 years and numerous dance forms for 15+ years.  He is a deep and passionate dancer that makes connections easily on the dance floor and has the ability to allow each dance create it's unique form and formlessness while supporting its creative development through intuitive movement and awareness of the other dancers body and his own.  He has a natural ability to share his passion through both dancing and teaching using yoga, intuitive body movement and freeform dance experience.     

Wendy Marie
Founder and producer of ecstatic dance Silicon Valley and co-founder of ecstatic dance Santa Cruz monthly.  She started studying forms of dance at a young age and took a break from dance until finding ecstatic dance, freeform movement and contact improv over a decade ago - life enhancing and life changing.  These forms of dance are where she finds her greatest connections to herself and others, using her ability to heal and transform her life and use dance as a creative medicine where passion and profound realities unfold on and off the dance floor.  She teaches to inspire others to move freely, intuitively and intentionally with the gift of living more fully embodied and alive in all parts of life - united and empowered.  She is a certified yoga teacher, teaches moving and sitting meditation, DJ's and curates music for conscious dance journeys, facilitates conscious wisdom circles and has been a leader of conscious community development in Silicon Valley since 2009.
