Hi, I’m so glad you are here.
Hi! I’m Kerry Martinez, your instructor and I’m very glad you are here.
I live in the awareness of Oneness with God. I’m an intuitive space holder for healing, teacher and guide here to help reveal any places you feel separate from God (your Divine essence). For many years I operated clinically as an Exercise Physiologist and mindful embodiment practices teacher with further training in Somatics, Yoga Practices and QiGong (Taoist) movement. These deeper practices which include embodiment practices, energy work, sound healing and Yoga Nidra (rest) assist you on your own journey to reconnect to your inner self, deeper rest, optimal health and Oneness with God. It is within the layers of these healing practices that you have the opportunity to find home within your body and Self.
After studying Exercise Science in college and working in clinical cardiac rehab settings for many years, I found my path as a healing space holder. What would happen one on one with patients, would also happen one on one with movement clients; when a person had the open, compassionate space to tell the story, express their feelings, and be themselves, they would begin laying the foundation to heal. They felt better, felt more empowered and heard and felt invested in caring for themselves. I began to bring mindful movment, breath work, meditation and stress management to patients, eventually reaching out beyond patients to the communities around the hospital. I began teaching in community spaces and studios all the while diving into the deeper task of my own healing. All along, SoulRattle was becoming and still is.
My teaching style is very much a weaving of all my movement, meditation, sound and healing studies. Classes, one on one work, sound healing, rest and meditation sessions are infused with humor, open space, unconditional love and compassion. When you work with me at SoulRattle you have the permission and sacred space to BE yourself exactly how you show up, and we meet, together, right where you are.
Here's the truth: You are already exactly who you are meant to be and exactly where you are supposed to be. You have permission to embrace your own true Self compassionately so that you can move into alignment with life itself. You are free, boundless and loved.
SoulRattle practices are for EVERYBODY!
Practices are made to be gentle, safe, purpose filled and subtle. Connecting the body to the mind & spirit through meditative movement, sound, energy awareness and meditative stillness, nurtures our spirits and leads you to our core truth. When you rest the mind and body, are able to observe, you create space for healing. Healing is the process of finding thought/behavior patterns within that create imbalance in the body, mind and in life itself. Acceptance allows for release of what no longer serves you and compassion eases you through. SoulRattle practices can hopefully assist addressing the root causes of issues.
Currently, in group and one on one sessions, we work with intention/prayers and connecting to the Higher Truth/God within you. The world we live in creates distortions in the mind and separation from God/The Divine. It is through your connection with Eternal Presence (God/the Divine) that you can clear these distortions, filters and programs to connect to your Highest Spirit Truth. You have everything you need and I’m honored to witness you finding it all within yourself.
