1991 Joyce graduated a four-year NJ/NY Feldenkrais training, a method of movement re-education and brain plasticity. She then devotedly attended eight further years of training in MA. Through her teaching, she inspired many students to attend the Boston area trainings to become practitioners. Along with her practice, she also hosted/produced a cable TV program, "Your Body Works," offering weekly Feldenkrais classes for the public. 

She was led to this work as a natural extension of her lifelong dance background. She taught modern dance and performed with an improvisational dance theater company, and maintains an abiding passion for African dance, music and culture, inspired by African dance courses while a college dance major. She lived in Senegal through a Worcester Art Museum grant to study traditional West African dance. After personal loss, Joyce is grateful to the Heart Rose Club community for the warm welcome.
