My professional journey began on stage. As a classically trained ballet dancer with over 40
years of experience in performance and movement, I developed a deep understanding of the
body—not just as an instrument of art, but as a vessel of expression, resilience, and
transformation.
In my later years, I transitioned from the world of performance to the discipline of inner work,
retraining as a Reiki Master and becoming a qualified Personal and Business Coach. I’ve learned
that true transformation requires alignment between mind, body, and energy, and I’ve dedicated
my work to helping others achieve that alignment.
I feel deeply passionate about supporting people to break free from cycles that no longer serve
them. I believe it is never too late to change course, to heal old wounds, and to stop repeating
patterns that hold us back. My role is to guide you through that process—providing the tools,
structure, and support you need to step into a stronger, more authentic version of yourself.
Today, I draw on my lifelong relationship with movement, my understanding of energy work, and my
professional coaching expertise to create powerful, integrative programmes. My work fuses
embodied
practice with strategic personal growth, helping you navigate life’s most challenging
transitions and emerge with clarity, confidence, and renewed purpose.
Whether I’m leading you through a somatic movement session, helping you rebuild self-trust after
a life disruption, or holding space for deep emotional release, I bring the same discipline,
integrity, and artistry that shaped my dance career into every aspect of my work.
The name Kimimila comes from the Lakota word for butterfly—a universal symbol of transformation,
renewal, and the beauty of becoming. Just as the butterfly moves through stages of growth to
emerge in its full essence, Kimimila represents the journey of awakening to one’s truth,
sovereignty, and embodied freedom.
The butterfly is more than a symbol of lightness; it carries the wisdom of patience, resilience,
and deep change. Its wings remind us that transformation does not happen in haste but through
presence, alignment, and trust in the process.
Kimimila is rooted in the vision of helping people move from mere existence into real existence—living awake, aware, and aligned with truth. It is about guiding individuals to break free from fear, conditioning, and the weight of unhealed influence, and to step into their sovereignty with clarity, integrity, and courage.
Integrity
• Acting always with honesty, responsibility, and respect for the greater good.
Sovereignty
• Empowering individuals to trust themselves and stand fully in their truth.
Embodiment
• Honouring the wisdom of the body as much as the clarity of the mind.
Transformation
• Valuing the deep process of change, not just surface-level shifts.
Connection
• Remembering that we are all part of a larger whole, each unique, yet woven
together.
Creativity
• Opening space for expression, play, and new ways of becoming.
Symbolism
• Kimimila carries the energy of the butterfly, but also the deeper symbolism of the
journey.
