The story of UNTAMEd
UNTAMED was born in June 2020, during the pandemic, when keeping people dancing and connected felt urgent and essential. With studios closed, I invested in silent disco headsets and invited people to gather for a day of dancing and connection in the forest by the ocean on Salt Spring Island, BC.
Wild, lush, and shaped by the land, Salt Spring Island became the perfect home for UNTAMED. Here, nature and dance became active allies, inviting people to reconnect with their own untamed nature and their place in the living world.
In 2021, I hosted the first catered UNTAMED campout. Since then, multiple campouts have sold out each summer, and a growing dream is taking shape: bringing UNTAMED to other powerful landscapes, where the land can quiet the overwhelm of daily life and invite us back into connection with ourselves, each other, and the natural world.
Nature and dance remain the heart of UNTAMED;
the outcomes are connection, joy, compassion,
and a deep remembering of OUR INTERCONNECTEDNESS.
