I’m Katy Slany — artist, somatic educator, and guide in the practice of returning to the body.

I support outsiders, visionaries, and bodies of difference to reconnect with their inner knowing and reclaim their place in the web of life.

Somatic work offers us a way home—a way to listen to the wisdom of our bodies and remember that we belong: to ourselves, to each other, and to the Earth.

The word soma means “the body in its wholeness.” Somatic practice reunites the fragmented parts of ourselves and reminds us that we are not isolated, but vital threads in a greater whole. Our bodies carry the imprint of everything we’ve lived—and within that, the possibility for healing, resilience, and transformation.

We live in systems that ask us to disconnect—from our bodies, our instincts, and each other. Systems like capitalism, colonialism, white supremacy, ableism, and cisheteropatriarchy don’t just shape the world around us—they live within us, in our breath, our postures, our nervous systems.

But it is possible to come back.
To feel. To imagine. To reweave.

My work is not about self-improvement. It’s about remembering. Returning. Rooting. Reclaiming the wisdom that has always lived inside.

You are welcome here.
All bodies. All identities. All lineages. All longings.
