Micheline Pierrette Berry is a bi-racial Artist, Producer, Embodiment Catalyst and Filmmaker. She has spent the past 27 years teaching embodiment frameworks as a way to spark creativity, heal trauma and reconstruct new narratives of radical imagination, identity and belonging. Her immersive trainings and retreats offer brave and catalytic spaces to make art, build community and transform.

Her work is informed by the seminal contributions of Victor Turner on ritual process, comunitas and rites of passage; Post-Modern Dance studies with pioneers in the field including Simone Forti; Buddhist meditation and yoga studies; West African & Afro-Brazilian percussion and dance; and the inimitable art of Laurie Andersen.

Heeding a call to adventure during the pandemic, Micheline took an sabbatical from teaching in 2022 & 2023 in order to return to her passion for producing and creating impactful art. 

Her recent immersive work ranges from designing somatic pedagogy for world-building processes at the Guild of Future Architects to Founding & Directing Liquid Asana Trainings (a 15 year yoga & embodied leadership program) to co-producing and co-creating For Freedoms’ first podcast SOLEFUL for The School of Lived Experience. She is also a partner and producer for Stellar Visioning, the elite aerial cinematography company founded by her husband, Joey Lugassy.

Micheline is currently in development on her first feature documentary and spoken word theatre piece about being reunited with her black father after 50 years. She is based in Los Angeles, where she lives with her husband Joey Lugassy, and their two felines Bill Murray and Massimo.
