THE TESTIMONIALS
"I've been on three of India's retreats - each one magical in its own right. India's heart-warming space-holding talents allow for maximum self-exploration. Whether we're adventuring in the wild, sweating it out in a movement practice, laughing (there's always laughter), or nourishing ourselves with high-vibing sustenance, India’s retreats have ALWAYS been the right medicine for me, right on time. I've left each retreat with a deeper connection to myself, new connections with like-minded women, and a little magic in my heart that inspires me to move forward with my dreams."
- C.H.
“It felt very healthy and nourishing to be held and supported in this environment. All of the details of India's TULUM retreat were perfectly geared towards release and relaxation and her leadership was nothing short of masterful. Being a movement teacher myself, she inspired the work that I do and as a woman she allowed me to reveal and celebrate the exact place that I am in on my path. I am forever grateful.”
-Shannon Cluff
“The TULUM experience was pure MAGIC. There is nothing better than the amazing Strut Club vibes transported to a tropical paradise. My only complaint is that the time flew by - I didn’t want it to end!”
-Valerie Frank Parsons
“My experience with India and all of the other women in Tulum was transformative! It was powerful and magical and mystical, sunny, sweaty, self-realizing, self-actualizing. It was fun. It was work. It was peace and eruption. It was beautiful and spiritual and grounding and down to earth and uplifting all at once. I felt so free to be me, feminine and sexy and divine. (So much so, that I finally gained the confidence to do something I’ve wanted to do for years...teach a sexy fitness class!!!!) I am in love with this process! Thank you a million times over India, for sharing your divine feminine kick-ass energy with us!”
-Michelle Spain
“Being a room with India, is like being in a room with the essence of SOUL. From the moment she opens her mouth to welcome the energy in, to invite you to go inward, you feel safe. My body knows exactly how to respond to her cues on movement. She goes beyond the mind and speaks directly to the heart and depth of my being. From the warmup to the choreography, I am held in a space that feels like home. Her own embodiment gives me permission to drop into mine. Everything she teaches and suggests feels warm and gooey in my body. Dancing with The Strut Club is empowerment and softness. It's raunchy and safe. I never want to leave once it's over. My body feels more like my own and I feel the power that lies there when I come home to me.
If you've ever been scared to move, to dance, to drop into your sensual being, India's Strut Club is the perfect place to start.”
- Jill Pollard
"So grateful to have taken part in India’s Bowen Island gathering. It was a magical weekend full of all the healing I didn't even realize I needed. India helped guide us by providing a safe place to dig deep, be brave, and open up. We moved, meditated, nourished, and connected. Highly recommended!
- Tammy Gagne
“I’ve been very blessed and honoured to be soulfully nourished by India and her offerings. The Strut Club has been such a positive experience in my life and has helped me gain confidence in mind, body and spirit. I had no prior dance experience but at the first class I knew that never mattered and that this was what I was looking for my whole life.”
- Linda T.
"In the best way possible, I never know what I’m getting into with India. The best thing I have ever done for myself when it comes to her classes or retreats is to just say Yes, show up, and go with it. Because no matter what IT is, I always walk away feeling like a better, stronger, more mythical version of myself.
Her superpower is bringing together incredible groups of women and passing along her knowledge through movement and ceremony so that they become better people. If you see something, ANYTHING, that draws you to any of India’s retreats, just say yes and go! There’s even more magic behind the curtain."
-K.Q.
”I found The Strut Club during a particularly challenging time in my life; I had just gone through a breakup and was filled with heartache and a determination to heal. A friend told me about India’s class, and I knew it was just what I needed to begin the process of moving that energy and reclaiming my sensuality for myself. And after that first class, I was hooked.
Strut has become my weekly, non-negotiable dance therapy, and I know that no matter the feels I’m feeling that day I am safe to show up exactly as I am and will be held by the energy of the room. I love the freedom to move however I need to move. This class has helped me build confidence in knowing my body and healing through movement. It has helped me know my body’s own intuition and power as a feminine form.
If you are new to dance, coming back to dance, or just looking for ways to get into your body, this. Is. The. Space. My goddess is it the space. It is supportive, it is power, it is magic. I cannot recommend this class enough or truly express through words what a light India is in this world. You’re just going to have to feel it for yourself.”
