WildCore™ Teachers
Korrine Rothrock
I found a deep love for nature at a young age. Solitary adventures through the sagebrush-lined canyon creek by my home, an off-grid activist lifestyle, and frequent dance instruction fastened me to the values I live by to this day.
By nature, I am an experimenter who prefers to not get fixed with any one style. I am happiest when in the dynamic space and blurred lines of research, wildcraft, dance choreography, gardening, and listening to the plants.
Over the years the plants growing around me have made their presence known and I have been learning how to pay closer attention. The more I do, the more I realize that I am being called onto a plant path. Like a mirror reflecting paralleled truths, my plant teachers have reminded me of my first love of dance and the sacred geometry also found in the moving body.
I have been blessed to have many wonderful teachers in my lifetime. Each one has helped me remember my place within the intelligent patterns of the natural world. My teachers have come in the form of parents, elders, mentors, activists, and of course my “be here now” 6-year-old daughter.
In 2017 I was given an opportunity to experience a unique dance-based practice called WildCore™. I instantly resonated with WildCore and became a certified instructor in 2018. The WildCore training and community have propelled my creativity and provided me with valuable tools to incorporate movement into my Lapis Sky offerings.
Spending time with plants and getting back into my fluid body with dance has been a soul redeemer in some of the most challenging chapters of my life. Naturally, I am now weaving the two (plants and dance) together in a way that I can share this multifaceted patterning with others.
If this brings up more questions than answers, know that I am eager to answer those questions and help you understand if my offerings are a good fit.
In light,
Korrine Sage Rothrock

Testimonial
Hallie’s style of dance she shares is rich with complex and playful moves that bring out the kick-ass woman in me. It’s like ballet meets hip hop with a splash of old-world sensual. I especially love the up beat music she creatively synchronizes her moves with. It makes the challenge sweet and super fun. ~Reyna Harmon
