Summer fry
Movement Artist & Embodiment Coach
|
I believe in the healing power of mindful movement and the development of self-expression as a means towards personal empowerment. I am passionate about fostering an atmosphere which breads a deeper connection with ourselves, our surroundings and our community. I hope to create a welcoming space in which people of all ages, movement capabilities and backgrounds feel free to experience the joy of moving their bodies with ease.
With over twenty years of training in the movement arts and almost twenty years as an instructor, I have a clear vision, a wealth of knowledge and rich experience helping people connect mind and body through guided movement practices. I have worked with children, adults and seniors in a wide variety of movement modalities ranging from dance to fitness to healing practices, including: Ballet, Jazz, Hip Hop, Tap, Musical Theater, Contemporary, Modern Dance, Yoga, Qi Gong, Zumba, and Tumbling. Having studied mindfulness for over ten years and trained in the art of facilitating mindfulness practices, I invite you to seek out one on one mindfulness coaching with me. The process is truly transformative and enriching! summerdawnfry@gmail.com |
alli smith
Hip Hop Dance Instructor
Dancer, choreographer, director, creative director, costume director, and previous dance studio owner. Alli moved to Roseburg late 2019 with her family from the Central Coast of California by way of Southern California, which is where her dance journey began.
Alli loves teaching all ages and levels of dance, primarily hip hop. She began her dance journey through high school in 1999 when a dance teacher caught a glimpse of her learning to break dance around fellow Bboys. Alli was encouraged to join the dance P.E. class where she met many influential dancers that helped push and show her the way.
Alli performed as a professional dancer performing both hip hop and lindy hop with various bands and groups throughout the U.S., as well as directing award winning dance competition teams (which appeared on Dance Moms) and owner to a full dance studio with many ties to the community. Alli planned many dance and performing arts events for her community on many different levels. Her passion lies within teaching and helping others express their talent and creativity through dance and sharing that with others. Working with Summer is a blessing and such a wonderful opportunity to continue to do so! Remember to always ... LOVE YOU. BE YOU. DO YOU.

Substitute Yoga Instructor
I have been passionate about yoga for over 15 years now. When one of my instructors at the Roseburg YMCA left I moved from being a follower to leading the yoga class. A few years later, in order to deepen my yoga experience I decided to take an instructor course. I completed the course in 2017 but with yoga and many things in life you never stop growing.
When I started yoga I wanted to lose some weight and I feel that yoga helped me reach my goals. In the process I have become aware it is so much more than an exercise. Yoga helped me find more discipline in my life and helped me look for what is important to me, my family, and my community. I have never perceived myself as a patient so when I started doing yoga I wanted to move from one asana to the next. Over the years I have slowed down trying to experience each asana for itself just as you have to take each life experience as it comes. Taking the time you need is important in all aspects of life.

Substitute Yoga Instructor
I am a spiritual student first and foremost, and very dedicated to my personal evolution. Learning how to love and forgive myself and heal from childhood & ancestral wounding has been the most challenging but rewarding work in my life, something I feel I was born to do. I love to share spiritual lessons in class because I feel it's so much more helpful and inspirational for students to hear the authentic truth of me being on my own self-love journey, rather than someone who has it all mastered. In terms of the physical practice of yoga, I adore flow, strength, and challenge. I also love breathwork, meditation and other more esoteric practices. But most of all....I love fun!! In my personal life, I live alone with my dog Bagheera, in a 120 year old farmhouse. I am obsessed with vintage clothing and classic cars! Happy to be back in Douglas County after 20 years away.
This class is rooted in vinyasa yoga, but weaves together elements of dance choreography set to music, meditation, breathwork, Pilates, and High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT). The class is physical - you will get a workout - but with the moves set to music it will feel more like fun! Expect to feel strong, graceful, and fluid. As you flow with your breath, unlock stuck / trapped energy so you can be free of old limiting beliefs!

Intuitive Tarot Reader
Hi! My name is Enjolie. I am an intuitive tarot reader who is also clairvoyant. I started studying tarot almost 3 years ago. As time went on, I have fallen deeper in love with speaking to spirit. The most important thing and my most favorite thing about reading tarot is being able to bring clarity and guidance to any situation. My clairvoyance also adds that extra magic to each reading. Whenever I connect with a certain energy, I get a vision and that vision typically adds to your message.

"Summer's Mindful Movement classes are delicious for the body - a practice of being present and awakening to ones senses - a great addition to regular yoga classes" ... "Your MiMo class is a meditation date with my body. It is a fun way to open up little emotional dams in the body.
Thank you Summer for bringing this experience to the Burg."
~ Connie (MiMo)
"I absolutely love coming to your classes. I take my son to daycare, and it’s my hour to decompress and do something good for my body. Most of my days lately are spent wrangling a toddler so this time to myself is GOLDEN!! Thank you so much for your light and energy, it’s infectious and helps be to feel beautiful in my body."
~ Leslie (yoga class)
"Summer is fully present and aware of the needs of each student. She carefully explains each pose, the purpose, the technique and the intended benefit. When she is introducing something new, she slowly demonstrates what we are going to be doing. She assures that each participant has the tools needed. I am learning to focus on my breath and to listen to my body. I feel no pressure to go beyond what is comfortable for me.
Summer often tells us that as we are practicing she will be going around the room and individually helping us adjust if we need to. I am a rather shy person and yet I feel very comfortable because I know that Summer's intention is to help me. She is consistently kind, gently and encouraging of our progress. Plus, i am learning so much from Summer. I look forward to our classes.
