What Shapes the Work:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

At Light of D\u00e9, all is done with intention. Every piece of wood holds memory. Every breath holds possibility. Whether you’re drawn to our handcrafted designs or our movement practice, you’ll find a space made for you \u2014 rooted in culture, reaching toward something new.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

Held by Lineage<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Gullah Geechee runs through my work as inherited practice, a root system<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Read in the<\/strong> Sky<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I read Western sidereal birth charts, using the stars as a map for timing and reflection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Carried Through Craft<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Trained in sashimono joinery in Japan, precision and patience shape everything I make and teach.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

Rooted in Land<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Growing up on Northeast farmland, my practice moves with the seasons, planting, growing, harvest, rest, not against them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Built on the Mat<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Every session is shaped around the individual, their chart, their ailment, the current season.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Afrofuturist by Vision<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Ancestral tools, forward-facing intention. The past is the foundation for what’s next.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n
\n

THE PRACTICE<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Explore. Fail. Let Go.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the practice. In the studio and on the mat, we believe growth lives in the attempt \u2014 not the outcome. Light of D\u00e9 is a space to try, to fall short, to release, and to begin again.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Where movement becomes presence<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Every session starts with you, your body, and the season we’re in <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Asanas, chakra focus, and reflection chosen specifically for you <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • A space to do real work, held with care and without performance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

    \n

    Where ideas become objects<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Sashimono joinery \u2014 Japanese wood joints built without nails, holding through precision alone <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Trained in Japan, carried home, still evolving <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Every piece designed slowly, meant to outlast trend<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
      \n
      \n

      \u201cI didn’t start with a plan. I started with a question, and kept going even when things fell apart. Explore. Fail. Let Go. That’s not a mantra I found. It’s one I made.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
