The modern world is rich with conveniences we all love, but at what cost?
My passion is to support people in connecting to their inner wild. The pathway to the wild in everyday life is the dance floor, where we tap the inner wellspring of expression that helps release stress, tend to contracted places, and open a doorway to our untamed nature.
When we safely express our authentic selves from the deepest core, we open a channel that aligns with our essence and enriches our lives.
Are you ready?

"Dance has shaped my body
sharpened my senses and opened the door to my intuition.
How can I thank her." ~Peruvian performer
I have always cherished this quote as it speaks to the heart of my devotion to the dance. There are so many reasons why we are drawn to express ourselves through our body in sync with music and community. Our bodies are wired for this type of connection, healing and relating. It is one of the most ancient forms of story telling, ceremony and healing. When humans had fire and the drum, they danced.
I am so excited to share WildCore with YOU! Read more to learn about my background.
Brietta is a teacher of dance in its many forms of healing, prayer, play and conditioning. She grew up as a dancer and discovered her path as a healing artist in 2001, while traveling in Asia. The combination of Brietta’s devotion to the dance, her nomadic spirit, family roots & passion to support herself and others into an embodied conscious awakening has birthed her own trademarked movement form called WildCore™. Her years of study as a conscious dance leader and mentor for Soul Motion® began to blend her years as a Nia® Teacher, Massage Therapist, Shamanic student, devoted yogi, pranic healer, reiki practitioner, apprentice to mother-nature, energy enthusiast & performer. All of which contributed to WildCore’s development.
Brietta recently published her first book called ‘WildCore: 12 Keys to Unlock Your Untamed Expression’, which shares her vulnerable stories and global adventures that led her to find her wild core, and asks you to reflect on your own initiation of the elements and your own wild beauty.
Brietta loves to inspire self-healing through movement and offers classes, workshops, online programs, co-creative retreats and performances to her hometown of Sandpoint, Idaho, surrounding areas and internationally.
We will have monthly themes to deepen your experience both on and off the dance floor and awaken your souls journey.

Example Curriculum
Join me in May to 'Cultivate Your Inner Garden'.
Every year in May my students and I work within our inner garden, while we begin the season of digging in the dirt. Our garden bed is our body. If you are a gardener of vegetables, flowers, herbs or a forest and beyond we know there is countless hours of focus and tending to be done to create a successful harvest. What many of us forget along the way to our bigger dreams is our body. The complex myriad of systems that are always working toward some version of homeostasis and equally want to feel good, productive and aligned with the natural rhythms of life.
We can begin our inner garden journey with the question about our soil. I learned from a very young age the difference between dirt and soil, as my parents owned a nursery. To grow really nutritious food, the soil needs a nice balance of organic matter, minerals, sand that lets the water drain and clay, which helps water stay. Let's shift to our bodies and what might create the organic matter or compost needed to add the nutrition or wisdom we all need to continue to grow into conscious human beings. Are there any old beliefs, thought patterns, relationships, griefs that feel ready to be composted? This doesn’t necessarily mean throw away, but given attention. When we offer attention through movement, ritual or an offering to the earth we have an opportunity to really feel the gifts of what may have felt very challenging at one time. I have found through my 23 years as a movement healing artist that the need to actually digest emotions is critical to healing. We don’t want to throw away the strength and resiliency that was created from our situations. There is so much diversity in everyone’s soil.
Our one month journey will begin with the soil and adventure to the seeds of our becoming, planting, watering, feeling the sunshine, budding, blooming and possibly bearing fruit.
Testimonials:
Brietta's classes support body, mind, and spirit - critical elements of our lives (especially during these stressful times). I have been dancing through WildCore for well over a year now (on Zoom), and the classes have provided an anchor - both in my schedule and for my spirit. Even when I'm dragging and don't feel like dancing, I do it anyway, and it boosts my mood and energy level for the rest of the day. Brietta provides recommended modifications for the movements and encourages participants to personalize them, so there is no pressure to "get it right." Highly recommended.~ Amy F.
WildCore is just what I needed. After years of various freeform dance and choreography based classes, WildCore hits the spot with a weaving in and out of movement phrases and wisely led free exploration. Brietta flirts with mastery, but what I really love, is the grounded, lighthearted and respectful way of connecting with her own dance and ours. ~Mollia Jensen
Brietta is an inspiration. She is able to involve all students as a collective, even over zoom. We all feel connected. A gifted dancer and choreographer, Brietta is playful and encourages everyone to find the movements to help themselves grow healthier, stronger, and more in balance. Each class is a workout and a soulful exploration.
~Deb McShane
"WildCore" movement is wonderful for the body and soul! I have really enjoyed the dance routines as a spiritual practice and physical workout. Brietta is a skilled facilitator and gracefully weaves various elements into the routines. I highly recommend the classes and offerings! Heather, Southern Oregon
