Embody, Explore, and Elevate with SPOKEN BODY Expressive Arts Coaching

If you couldn't speak what would your body say?

  • After 25 years in the corporate world, I reached a breaking point. The constant stress and pressure led to anxiety, depression, and physical issues. My emotional state couldn’t bear the weight of the corporate environment anymore. It was during a year-long break that I reconnected with my Expressive Arts training, my Theater background, and my natural healing practices. I came to understand that much of our suffering—both physical and emotional—stems from psychosomatic issues, and true healing requires addressing the mind-body connection.

    Now, I’m thrilled to return to the creative parts of myself and offer this work to those who need it. My mission is to help people break through anxiety, depression, and other obstacles, and to inspire them to live with passion and purpose. Whether you're struggling with stress, seeking emotional balance, or simply looking to reconnect with your joy, I’m here to guide you in overcoming the blocks that hold you back.

    For actors, I provide a space to dive deeper into the body and emotions, enhancing your ability to fully embody your characters. And for corporate professionals like myself, I help you find balance, reduce stress, and reconnect with your true purpose. Whatever your path, I’m excited to support you in living with more authenticity, vitality, and passion.

Testimonials

  • “The Agency Signed ME!" - Reeti D.

    I had a last minute audition, and feeling unprepared, started to frantically call all the acting coaches within my area. Kristina was the first one to respond at 630am and was able to meet up later that same day! Her acting tips were focused, her directions were clear, and I could immediately sense a difference with my acting. She was patient, kind, and supportive while making critical suggestions for the choices I was making. After we parted ways, she continued to text with me throughout the night answering questions about head-shots, resumes, and last minute details! It is abundantly clear that she is passionate about acting, and wants to help others succeed. I used all the tips Kristina gave me during our session, and received so many compliments during my audition about how prepared and professional I was. Ultimately, she was a huge reason why the talent agency signed me. Needless to say, her number will always be saved in my phone, and I can't wait to work with her for future auditions!

  • “Pulling Forth Wisdom of Body" - Alex D.

    Kristina has a rare mix of wisdom, intuition, skill, and vibrant creativity. She is bold and fiery and you will be changed after a session with her. Her work is also rare - guiding you through an exploration of movement, the body, imagination, music, art, and ultimately gaining valuable insight. Each time I've worked with her, I've overcome barriers, and taken away internal resources and clarity that guide my next steps forward in life. Thank you to Kristina's gifts for pulling forth the wisdom of the body!

  • "I'm Using my Entire Body to Explore the Character" - Randy W.

    Kristina helped me prepare for ACT and TPS auditions. I was impressed with how prepared she was for my session. Her encouraging, intuitive, and straightforward coaching really helped me get into my body and into a state where I started intuitively exploring the character. The session gave me ideas for doing a better, more efficient practice and reminds me that as an actor, I'm using my entire body.
