A teacher who understands, and a team that has your back
Aliven is small on purpose. Two people, both personally invested in your experience — one who guides your movement, one who makes sure nothing gets in the way of it.
Shani
Founder & Movement Therapist
We understand what it is to feel far from your own body: the stiff mornings, the flat days, the sense that you have stopped feeling like yourself. Shani has lived her own version of it, which is why at Aliven movement is about how you feel, never how you look.
And she knows the way back. Taught by Shani: a master’s degree in dance movement therapy and more than ten years of teaching. She has built a library of more than 100 classes that grows every week, and she starts every membership the same way, with a personal path call, so the method is blended around you.

Griffin
Business & Customer Success
While Shani holds the practice, Griffin holds everything else, so your experience of Aliven is seamless from the moment you join. He runs the business side of Aliven and leads customer success, which is a fancy way of saying: he makes sure you are actually taken care of.
From onboarding and billing to answering the questions that come up between classes, Griffin is your first point of contact and your behind the scenes advocate. If something is in the way of your movement, he clears it. That way Shani can stay where she belongs, in the room with you.
