The Transformational Power of Dance – Tasha Blank on Healing, Embodiment and Community

Evolution of Medicine Podcast

In this powerful episode of the Evolution of Medicine podcast, James Maskell sits down with Tasha Blank—DJ, movement catalyst, and founder of Powerhouse DJ School—to explore how dance, music, and embodiment can be powerful tools for healing and nervous system regulation.

For over a decade, Tasha has pioneered sober-conscious dance events that remove movement from the club scene and place it back into the realm of sacred, intentional expression. Her story is one of personal transformation, community leadership, and deep inquiry into how we heal—physically, emotionally and culturally.

Tune in to learn about:

• How dance and embodiment shifted Tasha’s relationship with her body and launched a decade-long journey of transformation.
• The health crisis in her late teens that forced her to look beyond conventional medicine and into nutrition, movement and energy work.
• A pandemic-fueled identity deconstruction that led to unexpected healing through metabolic, animal-based nutrition—and opened questions around gender, body image and healing.
• The launch of Powerhouse DJ School and teaching others to use music and dance as vehicles for transformation.
• The philosophy behind sober dance spaces and how reclaiming movement as medicine can heal individuals and communities.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone exploring somatic healing, community-based transformation, and new paradigms for health that go far beyond prescriptions and protocols.
