Tired of feeling like there’s so much creative potential in you that you’re just not accessing?
Don’t know how to choose which of your many ideas to focus on?
Have trouble getting started - or completing things?
Enter: Creative Club. It’s is a 6-part course that provides a step by step framework for bringing an authentic and meaningful creative project to fruition. PLUS it gives you the inspiration and necessary structure to get creatively active and kickstart a new phase of your creative life.
Here’s the thing ...
The reason why you’re not already making your dream project is simple: the big ideas are getting in the way. Staying stuck in your head trying to “figure it out” and comparing yourself to everyone else on Instagram is not going to get anything moving in your creative life.
The Emergent Method that you’ll learn inside of Creative Club is all about getting you into the space where deeper, magical ideas emerge through your body. You’ll be led to generate movement in your physical body and in your creative life.
When you’re operating from this place, you learn how to allow the messy process to exist, move through the feels and fears, and know exactly what small steps to take. And don’t worry, you’ll have guidance every step of the way.
here’s some of what you will create in the program:
A creative routine or practice that aligns with your natural rhythms and fits into your life
Your “Personal Power Dance” - a tool to get you physically moving through blocks and into your creative power
Your “Artist’s Statement” - the mission statement that will ground you in your process and help you stay connected to your “why”
Your “Creative Shadow Archetype” - to integrate the seemingly negative aspects of your creative past and alchemize them into art
Your unique project/creation/work-of-art that emerges from this process - with an opportunity to share it at our Works-In-Process Showcase
A life-changing new perspective on your creative life + beyond
you will:
Get support in actively making your work, whether it’s artwork or another creative business idea, in the most direct way possible (rather than pouring money into online courses you’ll never finish or curated social media posts that won’t end up reaching the people you want them to reach)
Move through the emotional or energetic blocks that are holding back your process, through somatic exercises, writing prompts, and guided coaching
Learn Jess’s “Emergent Method” of creating and launching projects so that you can get out of the loop of formulaic templates or linear processes that leave you banging your head against the wall.
Get comfortable and confident with being more visible in your creative expression and stop hiding parts of you
Create a project that will become your vehicle for emotional healing, processing the past, and unblocking whatever is holding you back from doing what you love
who it’s for:
The hidden artists/creators with “normal jobs” who are secretly wanting to express themselves creatively or start a business but keep stalling on making it happen
Creative professionals who are tired of putting all their creative energy into other people’s visions and want to focus on their own
Entrepreneurs and business owners who are tired of their business sucking up all of their creative energy, and who want to be more authentic and self-expressed
a note on trauma…
Just a note to clarify that this is work is NOT therapy. Creative expression is in fact healing and can support you in alchemizing pain into art, but it is not a replacement for therapy.
If you are actively working through something heavy or processing recent or past trauma, this program alone is not the answer. It's important to seek therapy, licensed professional support, and/or 12 step programs, etc. If you have questions about whether or not this program would be the best next step, please reach out. If it's not, I'm happy to direct you to other resources.

Hi, I’m Jess. I’m a dancer, performer, creativity coach, and author of Dance With This Book. Although I quit dancing after high school and thought I'd missed my chance, I proved myself - and society - wrong. My DIY dance videos on YouTube years later were the catalyst for reviving my dance practice AND transitioning my career into my own business and brand. I went from being a full time women’s holistic health coach into starting my own business as a creativity coach and a performer/dance artist.
Since then, over the last 10+ years, I've been invited to speak and perform on stages like TEDxNYU, Lincoln Center's Dance On Camera Festival, New York's Got Talent!, and the New York Comedy Club, all the while supporting my clients and dance students in bringing their own creative visions to life.
My method is different than most. I use my years of experience in body-centric practices (women’s health coaching and dance) to inform the process I guide my clients through. It moves away from linear/heady thinking. It’s about birthing your “creative babies” through the vessel that is your body. It’s an organic process that will surprise you with its magic. The end result: you move out of creative blocks and into your creative power. In other words, you will actually make the thing(s) you’ve been trying to make - or things you haven’t even realized are possible yet.
how it works:
1: make space
Rather than taking a heady and productivity-focused approach that often leaves you burnt out and uninspired, you’ll be led into a body-based, process-focused approach. It starts with making space - in body, mind, schedule, and environment - to release overthinking and forcing habits, and open up to receiving aligned inspiration
2: unblock + unlock
Being authentically creative is less about the act of creating and more about unblocking all of the excuses, fears, and obstacles that are in the way of your natural expression. We’ll do that at the personal level, and also consider the ways in which societal oppression have contributed to creative blocks, so that we can make individual and collective impact.
3: find your rhythm
Taking cues from nature and the human body, learn the art of cyclical creativity so that your process feels organic, authentic, and DOESN’T lead to burnout. Align your creative process with your schedule so that it integrates into your life.
4: embrace your creative shadow
Explore the hidden side of your process - the stuff that you might have buried, stuff that will surprise you! - and allow it to heal and inform the direction your artistic process is taking. Identify which shadow archetype is the one you are meant to work with at this juncture of time.
5: free your expression
Rewrite the stories from your past that have muted your true expression and clarify your message through words, dance, or other mediums. Allow your creative birth canal to open its pathway out into the world as you prepare to share in our finale module!
6: present with presence
Truly allow yourself to be seen in your expression and heal any wounding around being seen for who you really are. Connect to yourself, your art, and your communities, and create healing and transformation through sharing your art.
what’s in it for you…
Tap into the magnetic power inside of you -
instead of chasing formulas and linear models of business at the cost of your body, you’ll access more of your flowing, magnetic energy - the part of you that can move things forward with more ease, flow, and even magic
Dance out of the boxes you’ve been stuck in -
instead of staying limited to what you “should” do or what you’ve been doing, get comfortable enough to take risks and follow the (weird? eccentric? bold?) creative impulses that are nudging you
Create innovative ideas for your business and life -
let go of trying to jump through the typical hoops, release stale, forced concepts, and make authentic content through awakening your body and creative energy
Create success without abandoning your body -
instead of pushing yourself and ignoring your body’s natural cycles and rhythms, you’ll learn to understand your body’s signals and let them take the lead more often
let’s get you back to creating, ok?
frequently asked questions
I'm busy and limited on time. Should I still join?
If you’re busy and you’ve been using that as an excuse to why you haven’t been moving forward with your creative stuff, then I’ll venture to guess that carving out time for this program would be a GAMECHANGER. Committing to your creative self by investing in your creative self means you will do it!
Plus, we focus on realistic goals and step by step integration from Day 1. It’s about shifting your mindset and approach, which will help you make amazing use of your time.
What makes Creative Club different?
Rather than teaching you a specific creative technique (i.e. How to Do Ballet or How to Start Painting Again), the center point of focus here is YOU. It’s about getting real enough with yourself that you allow your natural expression to emerge - in the format it wants to take at this moment in time.
Taking this approach takes the pressure off the productivity-focused lens that so much of the creative world pushes in our modern day society. While you absolutely WILL create a product/project by the end of the program, you’re going to be led to do it in a way that feels authentic, works for your body and schedule, and expresses something meaningful for you in life right now.
If you didn’t already catch it, the “this might suck” podcast series goes into way more depth about it all!
Is this a dance program? I thought Jess was a dancer?
While this is not specifically a dance program, we certainly use dance and movement as a tool for unblocking, healing, and getting creative ideas moving. You don’t have to know anything about dance to be able to benefit from it, you just have to be willing shake things up ;)
And yes, I’m a dancer and you might know me from my TikTok/IG dances, but I’m also so much more: a writer, a poet, a video maker, a business owner, a copywriter and business coach, a former women’s health coach, a dog mom, etc. In other words, as a multi-passionate creator, I have a wide range of experience that shapes this program and supports you in embracing your own unique set of hyphens and multi-passionate interests.
