– Dan Braun, Director Camp Navarro and Director of Camp Deep End music festival

I have worked with Leah and her initiative, intentions and delivery of programs are all first rate. We have collaborated at Camp Navarro and at Camp Deep End and she always has fresh and new ideas combined with a real understanding of who her audience is and how to get maximum impact. I always look forward to collaborating with Leah!

– Nat Keefe, Hot Buttered Rum

I saw Leah take a group of strangers and swirl them into a moving, smiling, vibrating mass. I connected with my toes, my legs, my eyeballs, my booty in ways I never had. I want to invite Leah to every party.

EMBODIED GROOVE LIVE

A Signature Festival Experience

Imagine your audience becoming part of the performance.

Embodied Groove Live is a one-of-a-kind participatory experience where festival musicians and attendees co-create an unforgettable moment through live improvisational music, movement, and collective participation.

Guided by Dr. Leah Taylor and featuring musicians from the festival lineup, each experience unfolds organically as the music, the people, and the moment shape what happens next, through a reliable flow Leah has created.

Rather than simply watching the music, participants become part of it – creating the kind of authentic, emotionally resonant experience that becomes one of the defining memories of the weekend.
