Tarot Study:
"I am so happy I took the plunge to delve deeper into tarot with
Joie. With lessons and homework, emails full of resources, and her
availability to answer questions as they come up, this course has
provided me with the discipline and direction I needed to learn tarot.
It has been my dream to learn tarot fully and Joie provides everything
to be able to do that!" - H.L.
On Embodiment and Deep Improvisation:
"This was a powerful workshop that pushed my boundaries. To sit in silence and connect with the still voice within is one thing, to transform that voice into movement is another thing entirely. I found this space and time to be gentle, supportive, challenging, AND uncomfortable, all at the same time. I highly recommend it." - A. F.
On Dance and Tarot:
"I met Joie through the belly
dancing community. I took her class on live music and improvisation
which was insightful, supportive and helped me grow as a dancer. A year
later I had a tarot reading with her.
" I have many books on the tarot and quite a few years of self-taught
experience with them. However, I still felt I could grow in my
understanding of them, as making the myriad connections with the cards
eluded me. I knew I wanted Joie to be my tarot teacher during my first
reading with her. She is a knowledgeable and compassionate guide who
gave me many resources and practice tips that have changed the way I
approach the tarot. She was always available to answer questions
through email and her communication is superb. I learned about my own
decks, the differences between decks and how to approach that during
readings, and how to give readings professionally. I would recommend
her as a teacher of multiple disciplines, as she is a master of many
different things who uses her range of abilities to assist her students." - A. S.
