Michelle’s work centers on healing from individual and collective trauma, coming back into wholeness and aligning the mind, body, spirit, and heart.
Michelle published Skill in Action: Radicalizing Your Yoga Practice to Create a Just World in 2017, and Finding Refuge: Heart Work for Healing Collective Grief in 2021. In 2023, Michelle releases two books, both We Heal Together: Rituals & Practices for Building Community & Connection, and A Space for Us: A Guide for Leading Black, Indigenous, and People of Color Affinity Groups. She teaches workshops in yoga studios and community spaces nationwide and is on the faculty of Off the Mat, Into the World. She was a Tedx speaker at Wake Forest University in 2019 and has been interviewed on several podcasts in which she explores the premise and foundation of Skill in Action, along with embodied approaches to racial equity work, creating ritual in justice spaces, our divine connection with nature and Spirit, and how we as a culture can heal. In 2020 she created her own podcast, Finding Refuge, which explores collective grief and liberation and serves as a reminder about all the ways we can find refuge during unsettling and uncertain times and of the resilience and joy that comes from allowing ourselves to find refuge.
