When the Body Finally Finds It's Voice

A Review by a dear friend Kathleen Clark: "If you have ever felt like there were emotions trapped inside your body that you couldn’t quite reach, I cannot recommend her breath work class enough.

I came into this experience carrying something I had been unable to physically release for 15 years. In 2011, I experienced an incredibly traumatic situation where I was in severe danger. I couldn’t physically fight back, but I knew I needed help. I opened my mouth to scream—and nothing came out. Not even a sound.

Since that night, I have never been able to physically scream.

9/15/26

I had no idea that a part of that moment was still living inside my body until I walked into McKaye’s class.

From the moment I arrived, McKaye created an environment that felt incredibly safe, warm, compassionate, and completely free of judgment. She has an energy about her that immediately makes you feel like you are safe enough to let your guard down.

As she guided us through the breathwork, she encouraged us to explore the emotions and experiences we sometimes tuck away into the deepest places within ourselves—our own little Pandora’s boxes of emotions, memories, and trauma.

And somehow, through her guidance, I was able to find the part of me that had been frozen in that moment all those years ago.

I went back to that unprocessed trauma—and this time, I screamed.

It was the scream that had been trapped inside me since 2011.

I cannot adequately put into words what that moment felt like. It was emotional, powerful, heartbreaking, liberating, and profoundly healing all at once. Something I had carried silently for 15 years finally had a voice.

McKaye is incredibly intuitive and present. As she moved throughout the studio, she made the smallest, most intentional adjustments—some so subtle you might not even notice them—but somehow she seemed to know exactly what each person needed to more fully connect their breath, body, and mind.

She creates the kind of space where you can finally stop holding everything together.

Where you can breathe.

Where you can feel.

Where you can release.

And where something inside you that has been waiting years to be heard might finally find its voice.

I walked into that room carrying something I had been unable to release for 15 years, and I walked out feeling like a part of me had finally been set free. I was lighter. I stood taller. Breathing was easier. I didn’t need to be in survival mode anymore.

McKaye, thank you for creating such a beautiful, safe space and for guiding me through an experience I never imagined was possible. I will never forget it.

If you have been curious about breathwork, I would encourage you to give yourself permission to experience it with McKaye. You may discover that your body has been holding onto something your mind learned to survive by putting away—and that, with the right guidance and a safe enough space, you can finally let it go.
