Why is pelvic floor health important?

Pelvic floor health is crucial for our overall well-being as women, providing support for the pelvic organs and contributing to core strength and stability.

Imbalance in the pelvic floor can lead to bladder and bowel leakage, lower back and hip pain, painful or embarrassing sex, discomfort during and avoidance of routine gynecological care, and low self-esteem and self-confidence.

Breath control and pelvic floor exercise will help us avoid adult diapers down the road, retain our independence, and move gracefully into our Priestess Queen phase of life!

Will these sessions help me lose weight?

Let's not underestimate the power of loving our body and feeling confident~ regardless of your weight, you are radiantly beautiful. But, if weight loss is your goal for health or asthetic reasons, there is no healthier way than with sensuous movement designed for YOUR body.

Practiced consistently (2-3 times per week), our sessions can serve an important role in your weight loss plan that includes diet modifications, while toning the core, legs and arms, improving posture, and building strength, endurance and mobility.

I personally lost 30 pounds within 8 months of practicing these movement practices, limiting processed foods and focusing on low-fat, whole plant-based foods, avoiding alcohol and reducing stress through movement, and now enjoy a toned, strong, healthy body. My clients who practice with consistency and include healthy diet changes and stress relief have lost weight, toned up and gotten stronger too.

Pair with a nutritious, whole food diet low in fat and high in fiber, and manage stress to keep the cortisol levels as low as possible for best results. If you have IBS, like me, you may have to modify diet a bit.

Why go to Honey Rose instead of a gym?

If rocking it out at the gym is your jam, go for it! You DON'T have to choose one or the other!

Honey Rose Mvmt sesions offer something completely different, yet perfectly complimentary to your gym membership and a more rigorous fitness routine.

Working out in a gym is, by its very nature, a more masculine environment and energy.

Tending to your softer, intuitive, flowing side helps to balance that energy, and is vitally necessary if you, as a woman, attend a male-dominated gym.

It's also crucial that, if you are lifting, running or doing any high impact activities, you know how to properly support your pelvic floor during these activities or it's likely that you'll end up with leakage and possibly even prolapse down the road.

Honey Rose Mvmt sessions teach you to access and connect with your pelvic floor so that you are giving this crucial part of your body the support she needs during these activities!

Weightlifting and high impact exercise like HIIT or running the treadmill tends to raise cortisol levels (which could lead to more belly fat), but Honey Rose sessions can help regulate those elevated levels, making our sessions the perfect partner to more intense exercise.

Besides that, more women are having less than stellar experiences at male-dominated gyms and are in search of a safer, more feminine-oriented fitness option.

Many women avoid the gym due to smells, noise, crowds, microorganisms and harsh lighting.

Many women are seeking a more holistic approach that takes into account the specialized needs of her phase in life or chronic pain.

Many women are becoming aware of the importance of pelvic floor connection while working out.

Many women are craving connection and community with like-minded women.

Many women are yearning for a panoramic health and fitness experience that feeds her mind, body and spirit.

Many women desire a space where she can let go, and feel feminine and joyful without judgement or unwanted attention.

If that sounds like you, welcome to Honey Rose Mvmt Studio!

Can I bring my child(ren)?

Generally, think of this as a getaway from "normal" life.

With that said, I would rather you bring your child than skip your movement! 

As long as your child(ren)- max of 2- can sit quietly and self-entertain for an hour, it is OK to bring them to sessions other than Dark Moon Dream, which is intended for deep relaxation.

We will spread out a blanket in a corner of the studio and they can color, read, do homework or enjoy some screen time.

Please inform me prior to your session if you need to bring a child with you!

What if I suffer from chronic pain?

If chronic pain is a problem for you, goddess, I so deeply feel you as a Fibromyalgia and Ehlers-Danlos queen myself. Exercise and movement is the firstline premier treatment to help manage many chronic pain disorders. We often hear this from our doctors but have no idea where to start.

That is where our practice sessions come in. I've had to adjust my own practice to accommodate my pain and limitations while still getting a great workout in and ensuring my practitioners do as well, so all of my practice sessions are chronic pain-friendly and accessible to all women.

We with chronic pain can feel our very best when we move our bodies, while feeling strong makes every little thing we do throughout our day easier, helps us to feel lighter in our bodies and prevents injury. Movement gets the endorphins and lymph flowing, helping to ease our symptoms by releasing toxins, stress, anxiety and depression. We may need to plan a little extra recovery time, but we are more than capable of getting our glow on!

I decided a long time ago that I'm going to hurt every single day, that's just a fact of life now. I would rather hurt while doing something that I LOVE and brings me pleasure while helping my mind, body and spirit than not do anything, gain weight, feel depressed and anxious and hurt anyway.

Do I ALWAYS feel like practicing, especially on bad days? Heck no. Many days just getting put of bed is a struggle. But that's where committment comes in. I'm committed to YOU and to MYSELF, so I show up. And I feel so much better for it!

Honey Flow somatic movement and Alchemy somatic pole dance are highly recommended, especially if you are also managing POTS. If you join a higher intensity class, take home a packet of Honey Rose aromatherapeutic recovery salt soaks (or use your own!), prioritize your sleep and recovery, and you WILL feel strong, supple, supported and sacred.

Please make sure you have clearance from your medical provider.

Can HRMS sessions cure my hEDS/ FMS?

Honey Rose Movement Studio sessions are not a medical cure for hypermobility (hEDS) or fibromyalgia (FMS). These are complex, lifelong conditions that deserve respect and careful support.

What our sessions do offer is a sanctuary of alignment-forward movement designed with fascia science, pelvic floor awareness, and chronic‑pain sensitivity at the core. Each class is crafted to help you:

  • Build strength and resilience safely

  • Cultivate optimal alignment to reduce strain and support long‑term ease
  • Reduce strain and invite more ease into daily life

  • Connect with a supportive community that honors your lived experience

While we cannot promise to “fix” or “heal” these conditions, we can help you to manage your symptoms, increase your confidence in movement, and cultivate a sense of empowerment and joy in your body.

What if I don't have any experience?

Each of our sessions are thoughtfully crafted to accommodate all experience levels, from beginners to experienced practitioners.

Whether you've danced before or not, the thorough breakdowns of the movements that build upon each other make the sessions easy to follow, and we love to support and empower one another.

We ALL remember that first time! It may feel awkward at first, like ANYTHING new that we do, but you WILL get it and have a blast, and each session will feel better and better!

What do I wear?

Anything that's loose and comfortable, and that you can move in!

I often wear flowy skirts and dresses, lacy sports bras, harem pants, booty shorts, catsuits etc, and love it when practitioners wear something that makes them feel beautiful and feminine, but it's completely up to you. We are a completely judgement-free space.

If you can sit on the earth and move your legs and arms in their full range of motion without anything hindering you, that's perfect!

Pay attention to the weather when dressing for movement sessions. Loose, airy, cool clothing in summer and layers in the winter. While we have a portable a/c and fans for warm temps and heaters for cold temps, the Honey Rose studio is a converted garage and is not fully insulated (yet, working on it!). Dress accordingly!

For Dark Moon Dream sessions, dress super comfy... think pajamas!

We practice barefoot and shoes are removed prior to entering our sacred space, so wear shoes that are easy to slip on and off.

What if I "can't" dance?

Even if you feel like you are coordinationally challenged, Honey Rose sessions are perfect for you!

Our only faster paced 'choreographed' sessions are Dancing Rose. We start off slow and the movements are broken down into bite-sized pieces to really get them into our muscle memory before moving on. Beginners will start with the slower-paced formats, Glow and Flow~ rather than fast-paced Pulse cardio.

And, our small group consists of some of the most supportive women I know, who remember what it was like to be a beginner!

We got you, queen!

Are your goddess sessions religious? What if I'm a Christian?

Many of my regular practitioners have very traditional religious beliefs.

The Divine Feminine is not a religion, but She IS present in all religions, including Christianity in the forms of Mother Mary, Archangels, and saints like St. Brigid and Mother Teresa.

Many early Christians viewed the Christ as both the Word (Logos, divine masculine) and Wisdom (Sophia,  divine feminine) of God. The Sophia that has always been acknowledged by esoteric Christianity is the key to unlock the Christian wisdom needed for our time.

Recognizing the Sacred Feminine within Christian tradition leads to a renewed vision of the sacredness of the natural world and the value of mystical divine experiences. 

Our focus is the INNER sacred feminine, rather than an external force, which isn't a religious concept at all, so you can be confident and comfortable practicing no matter your beliefs!

How much do sessions cost?

Priced to be competitive with other area Pilates studio rates *even though they don't offer the specialized movement that we do*, HRMS sessions are offered at a $25 drop‑in rate beginning in 2026, reflecting the intimate size and individualized attention of our small groups. Each class is fascia‑focused, pelvic‑floor‑aware, alignment-centered and lovingly informed by hEDS and FMS considerations.

That said, the most supportive way to begin is not with a single class, but with our MVMT Discovery Pack. This special introduction includes three sessions of your choice at a discounted rate, plus a 30‑minute phone or Zoom consultation with Jessa to help identify which formats will best honor your body, your story, and your desires. It’s the gentlest, safest, and most beneficial entry point into Honey Rose Movement.

After completing your Discovery Pack, you may choose to continue with our Strong Supported Supple Pass~ a monthly membership that offers unlimited monthly sessions at a deeply reduced cost, designed to sustain your rhythm of healing, strength, and sacred embodiment. No contracts, no automatic charges to your credit card~ pay as you go!

What about cultural appropriation?

This is a great question, and one that I and many other dancers have put a lot of deep thought into.

What is Sacred Divine Feminine energy?

Sacred Feminine Energy is within all beings, both male and female, and is the spiritual and sacred aspects of a being that reflect traditionally feminine qualities like nurturing, intuition, creativity and compassion. SHE is the strong warrioress, and the beautiful delicate flower.

Known also as Shakti, SHE is the dynamic, creative, and primordial cosmic energy that flows through the entire universe. SHE is life force energy.

In this patriarchal, male-dominated, fast-paced, competitive society, many women have lost touch with their sacred feminine essence- thus they may feel a deep discontent and disconnection to themselves without being able to pinpoint why they feel that way. Some have likened it to an "inner scream".

By awakening and nourishing our inner sacred feminine essence, we connect more deeply to ourselves, get more satisfaction out of life and perhaps even discover our true soul's purpose.

Why do sessions synchronize with the moon cycles?

Flowing with the tides of the moon help us to best utilize our energy and prevent burnout, while honoring the reflection of the moon's feminine energy within our own bodies and psyches.

The moon also affects our fascia, in much the same way that it affects the tides. It's effect on the water within our tissues means that we are more flexible and less stable at certain phases of the moon, and thereby requiring more intentionality of our movements.

See Moon Spiral for more.

Is "Feminine Fitness" discrimination?

The word "feminine" is not intended to limit these sessions to those with an anatomical uterus, but to impart feminine energy, power and healing to anyone who wishes them.

Usually it is women attracted to these types of sessions, and sessions are geared towards the female anatomy and pelvic floor, which is my area of expertise, but we welcome ANYONE who wants to balance their feminine energy.

I know plenty of incredible male Belly dancers and there is no one who cannot benefit from embracing the sacred feminine within themselves.

With that said, Honey Rose is a space for women to embrace their natural sensual energy, so if you are a biological male interested in our sessions, please fill out the contact form below so we can have a chat and ensure we are a good fit and secure the safety and comfort of ALL participants.
