βTo move with joy,
is to dance with your soul.β
- Nicole Davey
I am a vibrant movement specialist inspiring breath, awareness, and nurturing joy for all creative movers to connect to their most authentic, radiant-selves through my 1-on-1 sessions, duets & group classes (in person & virtually)!
To truly experience joy in your body, there must be vulnerability, playfulness and breath. An intentional willingness to dig deeper, to connect mind with body.
When we are truly connected, mind-body, heart and soul, we radiate our truest light. What a wonderful world we can create when acting from our most connected and joyful hearts.
Hello radiant soul! I am Nicole, my pronouns are she/her. I have been a lover of movement since childhood. Growing up in Southern California, I was in the swimming pool, in the ocean, or out on the soccer and softball fields, every chance I had. My parents taught me to swim before I could walk, so I developed and, regularly, intensively, practiced fluid movement from a very young age. At 14 my movement journey propelled me from sports teams into the performing arts, where I discovered dance to be my deep, soul-connecting love.
After years of intense training on the West Coast, I lept into New York City and thrived in a career in dance and musical theater. I have performed in 2 national tours, a headlining show in Las Vegas, regionally all over the country, Off-Broadway and in 2022 I got to dance on Broadway with Broadway Bares. During my active dance career I also taught dance at my alma mater, the American Musical and Dramatic Academy, a performing arts conservatory in NYC. If I am not in the city, you can catch teaching and dancing up a storm as the resident Movement Specialist and Choreographer for the international musical theater company, Broadway Campus International. While leaning into deep love for dance performance and musical theater, I found Pilates and Barre to be the absolute BEST conditioning workouts and obtained Pilates and Barre certifications.
Moving and sharing my love of movement through teaching, is the soul fire that has fueled the trajectory of my adult life. In each session and class, I invite all ages and abilities to connect to their bodies with grace, breath, acceptance and joy. Since fully transitioning into teaching, I have traveled all over the world, from Brazil, to Shanghai and Hong Kong, Croatia, Los Angeles, CA, of course NYC and beyond, sharing my love of movement. My most recent adventure is creating and becoming the Founder of Move Radiantly a community of humans who cultivate light within themselves and with others through intentional movement.
I look forward to joyfully connecting with you!
