Freeing The Jiggle -- Jessie Diaz-Herrera
Manage episode 424242789 series 3480435
Jessie Diaz-Hererra (she/her) is here to help us “Free the Jiggle,” which is one of the signature dance offerings from her company, Power Plus Wellness located in New York City. Jessie shares the moment she learned to feel shame about her body, and how that moment actually led to the co-founding of her movement business that now offers classes like aerial yoga, ballet, and aqua stretch & sound baths- all specifically for plus-size bodies.
Jessie Diaz-Herrera is a dancer, certified group fitness instructor, and body positivity advocate who has dedicated her career to exploring and celebrating all bodies in dance. She believes that everyone should feel empowered to move and express themselves through dance, regardless of their shape or size. Through her workshops, Jessie uses body-positive affirmations, uplifting songs, and easy follow-along dance moves to create an inclusive and body-confident environment. Jessie is also the co-founder of Power Plus Wellness, a Latina-owned business curating private movement classes and events for plus-size bodies to jiggle freely, unlearn diet culture, and joyfully co-regulate in a safe community.
Please connect with Jessie through her website, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok.
This episode’s poem is called “Lion” by Tina Chang.
