Gurney began studying tai chi in 1978 and was first drawn to the practice as a way of cultivating awareness, inner strength, and tranquility, leading her to a more balanced and fulfilling quality of life. Fascinated by the power of movement to enhance healing, self-expression and well-being she has pursued years of study in dance, creative process and sensory-motor integration. She holds a Masters Degree in Dance & Movement Therapy. Her long experience teaching people of all ages and abilities continues to inspire her to find new ways to help students find joy and self-confidence through movement.

I do a lot of stuff, so for me it's not a challenge like a HIIT class. It's a totally beautiful difference kind of challenge. Like being really aware of what you've doing. I need a moderation button. I believe it's a great way to condition my body and mind
