Maanee Chrystal Joy is a Somatic Psychotherapist, Dance Therapist, Erotic Educator & Somatic Integrative Trauma Therapist & the founder of the somatic institute for women—a trauma-informed, body-based sanctuary offering online educator trainings, workshops & resources for women to reclaim their natural, embodied aliveness.

She is a deep feeler and lover of the truth. An investigator of the hidden, denied and repressed. A beloved of presence, movement, deep belly breaths, touch, the Erotic and silence. Her muse is the sensuous, felt, emotional, watery realms of the underworld. Her teachings, visions, and curations found in this space emerge not only from her 10 years of professional practice and study in the field of somatic therapeutic modalities and practices, but more importantly, from her living, breathing experience and inquiry of being in deep connection with the Shadow, the Body, the Erotic, and the Feminine.​

She believes that it is our birthright to feel safe, alive, and free our bodies. She is offering certification trainings in somatic education and 1-1 somatic psychotherapy sessions.
