Coming Back Together w/ Natalie Kuhn

Episode 096! Today's guest is Natalie Kuhn from The Class by Taryn Toomey. Natalie is my favorite class instructor (it's true) in this gorgeous technique, infusing a heap of self-reflective material into this movement practice. Natalie is dedicated to using movement and breath to create a stronger, clearer connection to self. Raised by an ex-nun and a doctor, Natalie found ways to use the physical body to experience spirituality and use spirituality to live more freely in the body. She graduated from NYU with a BFA in theater, travelled the world as a performer for the likes of David Byrne and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs before meeting Taryn in 2013. It was then, just before The Class was even given a name, she dedicated herself to this method and discovered that it was and continues to be her vocation. She hopes that students leave her Class feeling more alive, more connected to themselves, and therefore, to the greater world around them. Listen to this episode for: + Natalie's approach to "this moment" and the importance of perspective + An incredible story about how her mother supported her religious choice as a young girl + How Natalie got started with The Class (it's a fun story with a cosmic overlay) + Our dive into ALL the unspoken things that The Class truly is + Allowing ourselves to feel & to remember + Infusing spirituality and embodiment + Healing the separation in ourselves + Meeting the spaces in ourselves that have been unmet + Coming back into togetherness and in community
