With more than 20 years of experience as a dance graduate and drama teacher, Alev has long understood the restorative power of movement and expression. She believes that when we use the body and voice with intention, we can create space for release, clarity, and deeper connection.
In 2016, she broadened her path into holistic wellbeing, training as a Holistic Massage Therapist and later deepening her studies in Spiritual Healing, Yoga Nidra, and breathwork. These practices opened the door to a more profound exploration of the body-mind relationship.
During the stillness of the 2020 lockdown, Alev turned to writing through journaling, poetry, gratitude, and manifestation, letting whatever needed to emerge move naturally onto the page. This eventually led her to Spoken Word events, where sharing her words aloud became a powerful and affirming experience.
From this journey, Rest & Rite was created: a workshop where Zen, physiology, and creativity come together. It offers a supportive space to rest, reconnect, and express yourself freely.
