Where Art, Nature, and Healing Meet
“Nature and art release sides in ourselves that our social identities don't allow.”
~John Elder
Turquoise Grasshopper Productions™ (TGP)
Mission: TGP is a creative platform for performance, public speaking, and creative projects that guide people, especially women, on their journey of trauma recovery, self-love, and spiritual healing through nature, movement, and holistic living. Drawing from the power of dance, creative expression, and the wisdom of natural cycles, we offer tools for reclaiming our bodies, reconnecting with the Earth, and embodying our divine feminine essence.
Grasshopper, the totem of many artists and dancers, symbolizes freedom, balance, and creative flow.
Turquoise brings spiritual grounding, emotional stability, and opens lines of heartfelt communication. Together, they represent the balance between art and nature, grounded creativity, and personal transformation.
TGP™ reaches the public through independent productions and community collaborations with conscious individuals, groups, non-profits, and for-profits committed to community and positive social and environmental justice and change; love-based reality...
With past lived experience of mental illness and a survivor of abuse (now thriver), I'm trained to address trauma and work as a somatic recovery coach & spiritual guide through dance, choreography, breath work, fitness (sacred core-pelvic specialist), and massage therapist. This is the foundation for my commitment to support others to find their way back to themselves, their bodies, and their creative expression to live in joy and health.

Conscious Performance & Choreography
Performance is a vehicle for self-exploration, sharing a message, and inspiring others to open their hearts and consider new perspectives and realities.
Public Speaking
Podcasts, Collaborations, Community Events, & Conferences. From podcasts to conferences to community organizations, and gatherings…I share my recovery story and speak about the healing power of spiritual healing/faith, nature, dance, fitness, healthy lifestyle, and creative expression.
How did I get the name, Turquoise Grasshopper?
“Grasshopper?” I asked myself.
"Why do I look and feel like a grasshopper when I'm dancing? What does it mean??"
Grasshopper medicine was speaking to my soul.
Then I got the message: "Grasshopper Productions"
After asking Spirit with more prayer, meditation, visioning, and inquiry into finding a unique name, I knew it was a TURQUOISE GRASSHOPPER.
Beyond my own intuition, I did research...
