Over two decades ago, Titanya’s holistic upbringing led her to create Energy Medicine Dance. This enlivening practice, inspired by the teachings of her mother Energy Medicine
Pioneer Donna Eden, was created as a holistic well-being, bringing more energy or calm to balance mind, spirit and body. Titanya incorporates her knowledge of the holistic aspects of the dance into her teachings. She believes that working with
dance can be a supplemental system of self healing; using dance, rhythm, music, breath-work and visualization to heal the mind, body and soul.
Through the transformative power of movement and energy medicine tools, Titanya facilitates the release of stagnant energies and unlocks the cellular memories that can hold us back from our true potential. In Titanya’s guidance, movement becomes a conduit for healing, and becomes a sacred ritual that harmonizes mind, body, and spirit on the journey to wholeness.
Specializing in Five Element Energy Work for over 25 years, Titanya and her sister created Five Element Bellydance to connect to our own healing journey within. They taught this
weeklong course for over 15 years together. They now have an online course through Shift Network and wrote a book called, The Five Elements-the world’s oldest personality
system.

community. Titanya has delivered many Energy/ Belly Dance DVDs that have sold over a million copies worldwide.
“Now I am going to reveal to you something which is very pure, a totally white thought. It is always in my heart;
it blooms at each of my steps… The Dance is love, it is only love, it alone, and that is enough…
It is amorously that I dance: to poems, to music but now I would like to
no longer dance to anything but the rhythm of my soul.”
― Isadora Duncan

“Come to me, and I shall dance with you In the temples, on the beaches, through the crowded streets
Be you man or woman, plant or animal, slave or free
I shall show you the brilliant crystal fires, shining within
I shall show you the beauty deep within your soul
I shall show the path beyond Heaven.
Only dance, and your illusions will blow in the wind
Dance, and make joyous the love around you
Dance, and your veils which hide the Light
Shall swirl in a heap at your feet.”
~ Rumi
