Who We Are

The Art of Embodying was founded in 2023 by Penelope, an artist originally from Austria but based in the UK.

After studying dance in London, Penelope proceeded to work as a dancer and on her journey navigating life as a freelanced artist, she soon realised that it takes a whole different kind of practice to not get lost in the energies of the beautiful wild city and rebel against the structures of this one size fits all world.

"TAE started from my own experience as a dancer always being told people don't see "me" within my dance. I had a feeling for a long time that there is a lot more inside me and my energetic field did not expand much further than my own physical body. I believe that since birth we get conditioned and layered on by the structures of this world. This can sometimes lead to us not fully being connected to our own energy as it is compromised by the expectations that society imprints on us. Having discovered Human Design at age 11 and later spending over a decade working as a professional dancer, I’ve long been fascinated by how energy moves through us, constantly exploring how to reconnect with myself and expand my energetic field beyond what the eye can see.I wanted to lead from my instincts and build a solid foundation of holding my energy accountable, my worth, my beliefs and my ethics.

I know what it means to float between worlds, the deeply intuitive, spiritual one, and the tangible, fast-paced reality of life as a self-employed artist in London. That’s why my approach to Human Design and embodiment is anything but airy-fairy. It’s grounded, creative, and rooted in real life. It’s about bringing energy down to earth,translating what’s unseen into something you can actually live and move with every day.

I really believe in a quiet rebellion against the one-size-fits-all world. When mind, body, and energy move in co-creation, we return to our natural rhythm, not the one society taught us. Living from alignment becomes an act of resistance and a path back to trust in our own.
