About the presenter: Lise has been interested in movement as therapy since childhood. Learning from personal experience first and studying with some of the most creative and inquisitive minds around - eventually honing in on a deep interest in scar tissue and the potential effects on movement potential or lack thereof. A Whatcom County native, educated in Missouri and California, she lives on 30 acres in the county with her husband and tending to her 45 year old horse, and many other critters- while traveling often to visit her 3 children and 2 grandchildren who currently live elsewhere. Lise recently returned from walking a section of the Camino de Santiago where she had many epiphanies and is now most excited to share this work with you!
