Visual Theory Mapping can also be immensely helpful at any stage of the writing and research process to gain a new perspective. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5baaab480490796f8eb7d4ec/73a9108a-7645-46d3-910f-99c02a146de5/Miyuki+at+Asilomar+WTRE Home - Talks & Workshops I offer Embodied Study sessions to any group that wants to bring their bodies to the life of the mind. Ranging from formal students of all ages to museum visitors, non-profit and corporate workers, I remind participants that embodied study is a way “we can impose beauty on our future,” as Lorraine Hansberry once stated. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5baaab480490796f8eb7d4ec/2f74cffc-4fa7-4553-82cb-3293246e5de7/collage%2Bbeautiful%2Bscholarship.jpg Home - Curious?

I am a lifelong learner, curious, playful, and obsessed with multi-sensorial everyday pleasures of the erotic like eating delicious home-cooked food, making/sharing music with friends, and napping under redwood trees. I am a parent to a 6-year-old; an Asian co-conspirator of the Church of Black Feminist Thought; and have a PhD from Berkeley in Performance Studies where I first started teaching Embodied Study for Our Collective Liberation! I am fiercely committed to our collective liberation, which I credit Fannie Lou Hamer (“Nobody’s free until everybody’s free”) and the Combahee River Collective ( “If Black women were free, it would mean that everyone else would have to be free since our freedom would necessitate the destruction of all the systems of oppression”) for teaching me why. Convening spaces for Embodied Study is how I connect my gifts with this wider purpose. It is how I practice finding alignment with my values of living at the intersection of scholarship, social justice, and making art!
