Shared Experiences
“A seasoned visionary who’s mastered the the art of producing magical experiences.”
-Noris Bentivegna, TV Producer (Harpo, Showtime, Max, Netflix)
"The make-up, costumes, music, artistry and performances of your virtual Dia De Los Muertos event brought me back to the before times when we could congregate and share energy in lounges all over NYC. Thank You."
- Chris Coulthrust, Data Architect and Shoe Maker
Expressions of Trust
“I contacted LaMae because I wanted to feel more at ease in my body on stage. I am a singer who wanted to break free from the microphone and move with purpose – but dance and choreography scared me! Using heart-centered movement, meditation, and thoughtful performance analysis, LaMae got me moving on stage. Even the choreography from our warm ups found a way into my performance! I am more comfortable sharing my song and story – not just with my voice but using my body as well. I highly recommend working with LaMae!”
- Chanda Rule, Music Artist (NYC & Vienna, Austria)
“I've been working with LaMae for almost half a year on a series of promotional videos for a project I've been developing, and I have to say that not only is she a pleasure to work with, but she's been invaluable in shaping the creative language and flavor of the short films, particularly in regards to choreography, music selection, and choice of models. She's been a tremendous source of inspiration for me and I highly recommend her.

Stories of Impact
“SpiritWild is an innovative collective that blends performance, interactive workshops, community, and art. Often collaborating with other organizations, they have their hand on the pulse of emergent culture and restorative traditions. Transcending cultures, modalities and moments in time, they blend rich traditions with contemporary artistry.
It's been great to collaborate with SpiritWild. In 2023, they brought a lot of life to our camp at Camp Contact at Burning Man, offering performances, workshops and supporting our community operations while in the desert.”
- Spacious (Darrell Duane), Instigator, Camp Contact
Community Praise
“A family, community and therapy packaged up in a motley crew, seeking to expand our experiences while inspiring onlookers. Each artist contributes their uniqueness in a way that complements the dynamics of the group. As an artist myself, I have felt welcomed, encouraged and sought for the skillset I have honed for decades and was given the opportunity to share my craft to help create our presentation.”
- Michelle Camaya, Dance & Yoga Teacher, Native Philippine Folk Dancer
SpiritWild became my home away from home. I experienced my first Burning Man with this beautiful and talented crew, and although it was a challenging burn with rain the entire time, having them by my side made everything brighter and more joyful. Since then, I’ve been honored to be part of this multi-talented family. Together, we’ve shared incredible experiences—from dance and performance to breathwork, sound baths, meditation, and so much more. Over the past year, Spiritwild has created a space for profound connection, creativity, and growth, and I’m so grateful to be part of it.
- Tara Zandi, Event Coordinator, Therapist
"So cool and fun. Very inspiring. I was out of my element but I felt the energy, the spiritualness, and it was a great escape during these pandemic times, and right before the election. I'm looking forward to the next party." - Kathy Durant, VP of Operations, Luxury Beauty Retailer
“An experienced performing artist, curator of talent & art for events. LaMae and I were connected through our philanthropic projects. She has been a great asset for collaboration. We've collaborated in creative projects as well as overseas outreach programs.”
- Ariane Evans, Program Manager of Social Impact/Mentor
“What I love about the sessions are the history, the exercises and of course the choreography. You break down all the steps very well.”
- Jamaica Jornacion, World Champion Pole Competitor and Beast House Dance Studio owner
“I have worked on a number of projects with LaMae for over a couple of years now - from promotional to non-profit and she has steadily become a force to be reckoned with, with what she brings to the table, in talent, enthusiasm, experience, and know-how.”
- John Romano, Photographer, Filmmaker, and Noble Grape Wines Founder
“LaMae has an ability to merge art and healing in unique ways. She created a space where we could feel inspired and connected, while also discovering new layers of ourselves.”
- Corbeau, Music Artist, Event Partner
SpiritWild is a whole vibe! Bringing together incredibly talented artists from all over the country, SpiritWild creates immersive experiences that transport you into different worlds! Every SpiritWild event engages all the senses to create one of a kind experiences that are unforgettable. Immersive theater, meets spiritual escapade, meets bohemian social club, meets an old circus freak show…there is really no way to adequately capture SpiritWild…..you have to experience it!
- Tanory Ateek, Performer, Therapist, Yoga Teacher
“I was impressed with LaMae’s knowledge of and passion for Bob Fosse. I could tell that she knew all of Fosse’s works by heart! She is so immersed in him that she is able to break down his unique cabaret choreography to be simple enough for people lacking foundations, such as me. She was also patient when people not as advanced like me would ask her to explain or even repeat some steps. Even though she made sure I could follow, she still made it a point to challenge the more experienced dancers and keep them on their toes too.”
- Joyen, Burlesque dancer and Aerialist, Philippines
“LaMae is an exceptional talent. She is a pleasure to work with; personable, creative, organized, a multi-tasker, ambitious, and hard working. In addition to her work digitally managing myself, the company, our talent roster, and partners, LaMae makes a great partner for writing, casting, creating/choreographing, producing full scale productions, and special events. She is extremely trustworthy and I treat her like family.
- Ivan ‘Flipz’ Velez, Producer/Artist Management, Flipz Entertainment
When SpiritWild came into my life, it delivered exactly what I had been desiring: a sense of belonging. The SpiritWild community personifies acceptance, support, and the celebration of creative self expression. These qualities nourish the soul of any individual lucky enough to attend one of SpiritWild’s extraordinary experiences.
- Rua, Co-founder of Pyra
“The first rehearsal birthed a new skill of having difficult conversations and owning up to my actions. I believe SpiritWild was the ice plunge into my emotions that I often neglected. As you know after a cold plunge the body and nervous system begins to heal and rebuild even stronger than before. The next rehearsal was better than the last, the script was settling in, the creativity juice was a dopamine rush I missed since childhood. My inner child was welcomed and awakened. I cannot express who I would have been if I did not join SpiritWild in 2023. This is because the experience gave me so much love, tears, hugs, and full circle emotions.”
- Kai Hall, Animal Flow Facilitator
