FLIGHT SCHOOL
LEVEL 1: FOUNDATIONS

(Preparing for Take Off)

MODULE 0: PREPARATION

Welcome to Flight School: Foundations.

​

You made it. And whether it took you five minutes or five months to decide, I'm really glad you're here.

​

This is a space for women who feel the call to lead through movement, and who are willing to do the inner work that real leadership asks of us. Over the next three months, we'll dance, we'll reflect, we'll get uncomfortable in the best ways — and we'll build something lasting: a practice, a community, and a facilitation foundation you can actually stand on.

​

We take the butterfly seriously at Mariposa. Not because transformation is always graceful (it isn't), but because every stage of the cycle is necessary — including the parts where you can't see what's coming next.

 

You're in the right place for all of it.

​

I'll be with you every step of the way.

Now let's fly. 🦋

BEFORE WE MEET... 

DANCE EVERY DAY

Start now — even 5 minutes counts. Put on a song you love and let your body remember what it already knows. Begin collecting tracks that move you. This isn't homework; it's the first thread of your practice. When the course begins, you'll also have access to the online membership, which includes three live classes each week to keep you moving between sessions.

​

SPOTIFY

If you don't already have an account, create one before we meet. Then build a 20–30 minute playlist — something you'd genuinely want to dance to, alone in your kitchen or with a few friends. Trust your instincts here; there's no wrong answer. Please share it with me at least 24 hours before Opening Ceremony.
