A current conversation with taj:

What is “divine femininity” and why is it important to recognize this unique human quality?

I speak of “divine femininity” as not an unobtainable esoteric notion, but a real time experience. A woman must seek the core of her identity in order to remember her life’s higher purpose. It is then that she can strip away the category of gender and live her deepest humanity.

Why do you call your methodology of teaching “Sensuality Coaching”?

Beyond the superficial definition of the word “sexy” lives the true essence of being a total woman. This energetic consciousness lives below the surface of every woman. Invigorating these innate and wholesome characteristics through a re-education of the senses requires care and credibility.

My work expands the boundaries of conditioning and creates a safe environment to delve into key components that invite liberation and allow you to step forward and break new ground.

I speak of stepping into a permanent freedom.

The duality is that this distinctive movement as self expression opens the passage to a restoration of natural innocence. A place where there is no need of prop or adornment to “feel”. Here is where she gets to just “be” a complete woman.

How does a woman grow from the study of this organic science?

She develops intuitive tools that promote consistent balance and present moment awareness. She learns to embrace fear and understands her personal power. The process of making responsible choices becomes less of a burden as she is conducting the orchestra of her lifestyle from the true core of her being. Her cellular reality becomes prevalent as she is working from the inside out.
She is awake.

How does the world benefit from a woman’s continuous study of these instinctive characteristics?

All aspects of life are ultimately affected by the mood of a woman. Ownership and celebration of the body and spirit has a profound effect in how a woman contributes to the advancement of a global society. The time is now for call to action. Exploring movement enhances self-realization which helps bring healing and peace to our planet.

A current conversation with Taj:

What did your recent experience of being in Brazil contribute to your vision of dance?

After living three months in Brazil, my second visit, but this time enthralled in research and development for this project, the academics and philosophy surrounding movement has brought me to a higher level of understanding what motivates people in life. Wherever I travel, I immediately surrender to the culture and nuance of the country, thus allowing me to explore deeper into the unseen realities that lie beyond the surface. Here is where I find the life lessons that help me grow and give me access to greater creative possibility.

Sometimes I dance down the street and I always have music in my head. I dream dance when I sleep and sometimes awaken with my arms extended in a silent concert. There is nothing closer to my heart which is why I dedicate my existence to using it to enhance the quality of life of others in my own way.

The spirit of dance is communication, therefore, as important as words are they simultaneously have no meaning at all. The co-existence of this duality is the premise for the book and everyday communication is the framework, beyond different styles of dance.

Even this conversation is a dance.

How do you intend to translate your experience to future dance classes?

My level of instinctive creativity at the moment is smok’in hot. I’m watching myself transform potting soil to gold dust right before my eyes each day. The movement repertoire has expanded and I’m the most inspired, rejuvenated and studied I’ve ever been. Bringing these qualities into forums of classes, workshops and lectures is extremely exciting, especially with the honor of having all my classes overflowing with students that are so willing and ready to take this journey with me. I’ve got new material that is just incredible and my output is powerful and impactful. Warning ladies, if you step into one of our studios, you just may become a more authentic version of yourself. If you are up for the challenge, come play with us!

How has becoming an Author affected your work?

Writing to me is about creating feeling and sensation. It’s about conjuring a scenario that draws the reader into a mindset of not reciting someone else’s thoughts; but having the experience themselves, if only for a moment. Think, debate, cry, hug the pages or maybe throw the book against the wall in anger. Shout for joy because maybe you read something that you always wished you could say yourself. Laugh out loud because something is truly hysterical, feel something.

It took me a while to get over my fear of writing, because I thought with me being dyslexic that I just couldn’t pull it off. I surprised myself by digging deeper inside of myself to even the darkest reaches of my soul and brought that to the light. I’m still marveling that by being that painfully honest I created a literary work so in depth that it is officially a worthy accredited study of Human Communication. The overwhelming support has been tremendous and we are still in the pre-launch phase and I’m already making waves in different parts of the world. I invite you to one of the signings to share the joy. They are loads of fun with entertainment and surprises.

But most important, all the proceeds are being donated to Cause as the book is merely a catalyst for a greater mission, next stop Africa. I remain humble, but lately I have been seen doing a few cartwheel flips down the sidewalk. Alegria!

A current conversation with Taj:

What did your recent experience of being in Hawai’i contribute to your vision of dance?

The location was selected for its environmental beauty to be the visual foundation for our Volume II Instructional DVD. It was my second time there but this time with a guiding purpose. I found myself becoming a part of nature and not just an admirer. The islands are magical as you can feel the sacredness of the land. Surrounded by the fresh smell of the air, lush vegetation and the salt mist that blankets the windows each day, I am invigorated and humbled of the reminder that you and I are only a tiny part of creation.

The thing that struck me the most was being awakened each morning by the sound of the ocean. I studied the waves at length and have always incorporated the concept of this ebb and flow motion in my work. It’s this spontaneous crashing against the rocks that fascinates me.

I see a wave encounter with the rocks as a momentary burst of small abundance. Perhaps a way for each drop of water to express its own independence, to then be gently welcomed back to the water mass, as only together we are one. Nature mandates respect and nurturance. We have the simple exact needs as nature. It is only when we let go of self induced fear that we are truly free. The way of freedom is unconditional love. No matter how much we accomplish, the greatest thing we will ever know is just to love and be loved.
