Rana Satori is an enthusiastic teacher and performer whose greatest passion in life is dance.  She has been dancing for over 25 years and is avidly teaching contact improv in Marin and Oakland. She is the core teacher at the Fairfax Contact jam and is an expert in getting 'never-ever's' up and dancing. Her teaching is strongly influenced by Martin Keogh and Anna Halprin.   Rana balances the structure and athleticism of contact improv with the sensitivity of her practices in meditation and the Halprin Method in order to bring participants to full presence and create breakthrough experiences. She has also studied and performed site specific dance in nature intensively and was a member of "The Sea Ranch Collective"  as well as being a graduate of the Tamalpa Institute and 2 year assistant teacher to Anna Halprin.  Her blending of expressive arts, contact improv and site specific nature dance provides a creative, inspired structure to connect with nature in a profoundly deep and artistic way.
