Amy Verebay
I grew up taking myself and everything very seriously. Learning how to heal my own body's physical pain and my mind's inner turmoil was a great gift that turned this around. I truly believe that play has set me free! Now I love to help others shift their perspectives of themselves and their lives, too. Whether its through acrobatics showing a child she is stronger than she thinks or with breathwork, encouraging an adult to let go and be silly, my joy is to help inspire, move, and empower others.
