Welcome!

I am Katie (she/her), founder of Align & Spiral—a space where bodywork, movement, and creative expression meet. For over a decade, I’ve worked with bodies through manual therapy, movement arts, stage performance, and anatomy study. Along the way I’ve come to see the body not just as structure but as a story—a living spiral of growth, memory, and possibility.

My path began in theater, where I learned how perspective and presence can shift a whole world. Later through hula-hooping and flow arts, I discovered a playful way to find my rhythm, and to let expression flow without judgment. That joy of movement continues to guide my work: a blend of the “align”—grounded knowledge of anatomy and form—with the “spiral”—movement, growth, the art of becoming.

I offer one-on-one sessions, workshops, and festival experiences that invite people to feel, express, and play. My teaching bridges the logical and the intuitive: blending clear, accessible anatomy with practices that awaken curiosity, ease, and embodied presence.

Whether I’m holding space for deep rest, guiding someone through new pathways of movement, or creating cozy lounges at festivals for people to land, my intention is always the same: to help people feel more comfortable in their bodies.
