Shakira practices a natural dance called Rhythmic Bloom. She noticed the systematic standard of wellness during her undergraduate career, which boosted her interest in alternative healing methods that support the whole person. The catalyst to her embodiment of wellness sparked during her training to become a Licensed Massage and Bodywork Therapist in 2011. Her bodywork practice focuses on moving through the deep, underwater currents of growth to extend the practice of music for musicians and artists. Shakira continues the rhythmic journey of interweaving social justice and wellness practices as she studies under Michelle C. Johnson through the Skill in Action program. She and other passionate change makers have shared values of whole body healing, uplifting the voices of their community, and recreating the meaning of wellness through an anti-oppression and anti-racism lens. An evolving, passion project of hers invites singles to create a spirit-partnered relationship to live on purpose, which is counter to stigmatizing, dominant culture. Her e-guide, written under the pen name Coko Bonique, "You Know You're Dope, Right? Foundational Practices to Living Single," liberates individuals into radical acceptance of their natural rhythm and authentic essence to deepen the relationship to self and live with confidence + intention. Shakira holds a B.A in Psychology from UNC-Chapel Hill and is a RYT-500
