Hi!
My name is Dorota, but most people call me Doris.
I am a psychologist by education, a dancer by passion, and a mind–body mentor for women who want to feel good in their body and everyday life.
I help women introduce changes that genuinely work: building healthy habits, reducing stress, working with the body and mind wisely, and regaining energy, self-confidence, and femininity.
I combine movement, psychology, knowledge about the nervous system, and feminine wellbeing to show you that your body and mind can cooperate. And that it is possible to live lighter, calmer, and feel absolutely fantastic!
When the body, mind, and soul start dancing in one rhythm - my story
First Steps
My adventure with movement started… even before I could properly walk. I was about a year and a half old, standing wobbly on a blanket in front of the TV, doing aerobics (the old-school, group aerobics from the 90s set against the sea), trying to keep up with the instructors. Movement has always been natural for me.
As a little girl, I started with dance, a bit of rhythmic gymnastics, then cheerleading, then trying various dance styles, until I discovered jazz, which I fell in love with. For years, I trained in teams, attended workshops, participated in competitions and tournaments, earning spots at the Polish and European Championships. I also started teaching dance very early. In later years, I found high heels dance, which I loved for its energy, expression, and feminine power.
Living on high gear
My passion for dance led me from Warmia to Warsaw, where I started the biggest marathon of my life. Simultaneously, I worked as a dance instructor, performed, trained in a dance team, studied psychology, management at the Warsaw University of Technology, and attended a two-year Instructor Qualification Course, where I obtained a diploma as a jazz dance instructor. I always joked that psychology was the heart, dance was the soul, and the technical university was the mind – three fields that together formed my identity.
For several years, I lived life at full throttle. I worked in a corporation (the mind and technical education briefly took the lead), and after hours, I returned to the studio, created choreographies, and taught classes. Over time, less and less often, because I simply lacked the strength. My body started screaming, and I… didn’t listen. I did what many women do – I reduced what I loved instead of changing what was exhausting me.
The storm
Moving to Switzerland might sound beautiful, but unfortunately, it deepened the process of drifting away from myself. A lot of novelty, stress, and the pros and cons of emigration. Passion took a back seat, and my body and mind started demanding attention more loudly. Several overwhelming life situations added to this, and at some point, a full boom occurred – my health collapsed.
"It's just the way you are"
This collapse didn’t come out of nowhere. The truth is, the first signals appeared around the age of 17: hormonal disorders, irregular cycles, and terrible well-being. The doctors’ answer? Birth control pills. For 12 years, I heard: “it’s just the way you are,” “the results are fine,” “it’s genetics,” “eat less pasta” (which I wasn’t eating).
And the symptoms escalated: gaining weight and swelling “out of thin air,” a roll around the stomach, hair falling out in clumps, acne, constant fatigue, sleep problems, rare periods, lack of self-acceptance, and a feeling of being disconnected from my own body.
Sounds familiar, right? I only received a diagnosis when I independently ordered a panel of tests that no one had directed me to before. I searched, read, and checked on my own because I felt something was wrong. In the meantime, I tried everything: healthy eating, various diets, intense training, and sheer willpower. I was in a vicious cycle. Nothing worked, because my body was simply overloaded.
After years of searching for the answer to the question, “What is happening to me, why isn’t my body cooperating?”, the diagnosis of PCOS appeared, among others. And a very clear awareness that if I wanted to feel better, I had to start acting differently…
The breakthrough
This was the moment when I returned to everything I had always been passionate about and trained in for years: psychology, bodywork, conscious movement, and education about stress, emotions, and the nervous system. I began changing my habits, daily rhythm, way of thinking, beliefs, and approach to femininity.
I added regeneration, gentleness, and… I returned to dance – this time not at full throttle, but with mindfulness. Yoga also appeared (which I had never liked). Movement once again became an inseparable part of life; it became a regulator, a space where the body and mind dance in one rhythm. I connected the dots and analyzed the topic deeply, from various perspectives. And only the combination of these three areas – body, mind, and soul – began to bring results. Along with the changes I introduced, my body regained balance, and the symptoms of PCOS subsided.
And today....
Today, I use all my knowledge and experience to help women regain energy, balance, self-confidence, and the feeling that their body is not the enemy.
I work with women who want to better understand their body and mind and finally feel FANTASTIC about themselves!
I teach jazz, high heels, and intuitive dance – combining technique, body awareness, and emotions.
Why is it worth finding your rhythm with me?
I went through all of this myself. I know what it’s like to live for years without answers, with a sense of chaos, and the doubt of whether the body will “ever start working normally.” And I also know how little is said about the role of the nervous system in PCOS and women’s health. Most methods focus on nutrition and exercise, but that’s only part of the puzzle.
I know perfectly well how difficult it is for a dancer when the “body refuses to obey” and stops looking the way a dancer’s body is traditionally “supposed” to look. I learned the hard way how difficult it is to trust your body when you feel like it’s the enemy. But I also know that the body always tries to protect us – we just have to learn to understand it.
I guide women in discovering how to...
Work on stress, mindset, and regulate the nervous system.
Feel better without perfectionism and return to yourself, step by step.
Find energy, femininity, and self-confidence.
Build a supportive mindset.
Introduce movement that supports health.
Build habits that work.
The body is never our enemy.
It is always communicating something – you just have to learn how to understand it.
I am here to show you that you can feel absolutely fantastic.
