Our Somatic Approach

Discover the #Fluturization Effect

At the heart of my somatic practice lies a profound exploration of transformation and illumination, encapsulated through the symbolic archetypes of the monarch butterfly and the disco ball.

The monarch butterfly, with its astonishing metamorphosis from caterpillar to winged beauty, serves as a powerful emblem of personal evolution and resilience. It reminds us of the imaginal cells within us all, those harbingers of change that compel us to embrace our periods of learning new skills, facing and overcoming challenges, or transitioning from one place to another—the cocoon phase, so that we may emerge resilient and more capable than originally thought possible.

Parallel to this, the disco ball reflects my holistic approach to wellness, casting a myriad of light from its mirrored facets. Each facet represents one’s experiences, stories, and shifts that encourage diversity and compose our perspectives and shared human experience. Just as a disco ball radiates light in every direction, I teach that our inner light, magnified by every small intention and positive change, can illuminate our paths. Thus, transforming our lives and the lives of those around us, one reflective moment at a time. I call this mirroring phenomenon the “Fluturization Effect.”

I integrate these archetypes by cultivating a safe environment for discovery using somatic practices and movement. Through yoga, creative movement, storytelling, and reflective exercises such as art inspired by these archetypes, participants can explore themes of transformation, resilience, acceptance, self-expression, compassion, community, and more. These activities not only foster physical wellness but also emotional and social development. By recognizing their own growth journeys and the unique light they carry within, participants learn to navigate life with confidence from an embodied sense of self. Embracing all the parts of the human experience by appreciating the richness of their own and others’ experiences with kindness and understanding in a safe non-judgmental way. In somatics, we refer to this as the act of witnessing, whether it is self-witnessing or being witnessed by another.

In the spirit of fostering deep connection, awareness, and healing, we at Flutura Creative recognize the importance of acknowledging the land on which we gather and practice. Our commitment to somatic work—grounded in principles of awareness, respect, and non-judgmental acceptance—extends beyond the individual to embrace the larger ecosystem, including the cultural and historical contexts of our shared spaces.

We acknowledge with respect the traditional custodians of this land, their elders past and present, and all Indigenous peoples whose profound connections to these territories continue to this day. This acknowledgment is a vital step in honoring the original stewards of the land, recognizing their enduring relationship with their ancestral territories, and reflecting on the historical and ongoing impacts of colonization.

Our practice is rooted in the belief that healing and growth occur within a web of interconnectedness—among individuals, communities, and the natural world. By intentionally acknowledging the land, we aim to cultivate a space that honors these connections, promotes reconciliation, and supports collective healing from historical injustices. This practice also serves as a reminder to approach our work with mindfulness, intentionality, and a commitment to ethical engagement.
