Frieda Kipar Bay is a weaver of knowledge, overlapping different threads to better understand the whole.  Some of the threads she weaves with:  Daoist medicine, qigong, five element theory and diagnostic practices, gardening and native plant restoration, tracking, writing, CI and improvisational dance, The Work That Reconnects facilitation and grief processing, making ritual and equity practice.  She finds that beautiful things get made when she weaves with many perspectives.

Frieda sees clients as a clinical herbalist, unschools her 2 children, and teaches qigong and herbal medicine in Western Mass.

Dana Iova-Koga has been a polymorph since an early age. Her formative training in movement was with Japanese dancer Min Tanaka. She lived and worked for several years with him on his farm- dancing, farming and studying nature of all kinds. Since that time Dana has continued to explore and discover the connections between body and landscape. She has been a member of dance/theater company inkBoat and has been teaching “Dance on Land” with husband Shinichi since 2006. 

Dana is forever inspired by the complexity and diversity of life in all its forms, is fascinated by the phenomenon of creativity, and above all enjoys playing in the space occupied by the questions.
