Understanding that Love is all, Soul Motion's guiding principle is the removal of obstacles that prevent us from seeing the connection between light and dark, affirmed and estranged, and we practice acceptance of what is without agendas. We learn to see and be seen as Love regardless of individual personality. Students are invited to live their life from inspiration, rather than memory.

Soul Motion teaching platforms ask the student for heightened awareness of the body in motion moving through space. Students are guided with clear and careful instruction to bring forth the best of themselves in an atmosphere that encourages investigation and curiosity. vinn's teaching mastery includes seeing everyone for the unique song they sing and providing a score for their experimentation as expressive movement artists.
The sessions are a mixture of instruction and guidance in the pedagogy of Soul Motion; the various Platforms and Points of View that distinguish this form of Conscious Dance as well as Soul Motion Passages which, are uninterrupted periods of movement exploration.
Whether you are new to Soul Motion practice or a practitioner of many years, you are invited to come and spend time in the beauty and the sacredness of The Studio Maui where we will traverse new ground in Soul Motion.
