We feel it is important for dancers to have a refreshing, informational, inspiring, supportive, nourishing and healing dance experience to enhance their overall well-being and dance abilities! It's essential for dancers to train with a whole-body consciousness around movement, preventing injury and creating quality dance performances. Our workshops and dance camps are a deep dive into our training methods.
Our whole-body intensives train dancers to integrate their body, mind, and spirit.

While each intensive is unique, we bring in elements that help dancers to build a healthy practice for their lifestyle. In addition to our specified style or technique focus of training, we apply the following tools to offer well-rounded support and guidance to our students:
Meditation, writing exercises, understanding healthy training vs punish mentality, positive self talk, creating achievable goals, building affirmations, manifestations and visualizing their dreams and goals, the importance of mental and emotional health, communication practice and more.
Through our very intentional programs, we explore dance in different ways at a more in-depth focus.
Her classes have never lost my engagement for a minute, her invigorating passion combined with her vivid insights make classes continually compelling and energizing. During my many years working with her, Kea has given me the bravery, power, wisdom, and methodology, through movement expression, to deeply explore my own sense of self, which has dramatically transformed for the better.
"Kea is a master at weaving the practice of dance with experience and worldview."

I’m welcomed with open arms every time I come in for a dance. When I wake up and I remember I have dance later it just powers me through the rest of the day and always gives me something to look forward to. The people are incredible, what we learn is incredible, and the dances we perform are always incredible.
"I feel empowered when I dance and especially at Kinetic Energy Alive."
Clara
Sometimes it’s challenging to feel confident and beautiful in a society that's so focused on comparisons. The way I dance with KEA has forced me to look past what I might not love be in myself, and focus on the power I posses.
"Dancing at K.E.A. has helped me strengthen not only my body but also my mind..."
