Author Talk and Ballet Experience with Vanessa Autrey and Ballet Master Andrew Guilfoil

Join bestselling author Vanessa Autrey and classical Ballet Master Andrew Guilfoil for an intimate morning of movement, literature, and connection.

Inspired by "Dancing With Life", a chapter from Vanessa’s new book, Rhythm of a Rebel, this immersive experience explores ballet as a catalyst for emotional healing, liberation, and collective joy.

When Vanessa returned to ballet as an adult, there was no more applause to earn. There was fumbling. Laughter. And an unexpected realization: what once demanded perfection now offered a new kind of freedom.

Dancing With Life asks what becomes possible when we stop performing our lives and begin inhabiting them.

For one morning, we’ll explore this question together—through ballet, literature, and reflection. Come as you are. Move as you are. And perhaps, leave with a little more freedom to dance with life as it is.

Space is intentionally limited to preserve the intimacy of the experience and provide ample room for movement. Reserve your place and join us for a morning of movement, reflection, and collective joy.
