Our new Nanoose Bay, British Columbia respite home with our three horses boarding close by at Paradise Acres Ranch
Last Spring we set some new roots in we set up a respite home in British Columbia on Vancouver Island's east coast in a lovely community called Nanoose Bay. A few months later we relocated our horses to Paradise Acres Ranch in Nanoose Bay, only 15 minutes away from our home there, for full care.
All three are thriving.

They continue to be my beloved family members, my 'Nia and Horses' teachers, 'Educating Humans for Horses' teachers and my trail riding and liberty training personal horses. After spending quiet nights in their stalls and roomy paddocks they go out each morning to a private 30-acre grassy pasture with an attached grove of pine trees for shelter. They are living the most wonderful, natural, healthy and happy life while being cared for and surrounded by a resident herd of horses and a wonderful new horse community of human horse lovers too.
I visit them several weeks each month.

| It's a few hours to the border then 35 minutes to Tswassen Ferry Terminal in Delta, BC. There we take a relaxing two-hour BC Ferry ride to Nanaimo then a 30 minute drive to home. All in all, about six or seven hours of car/ferry travel. |
We are splitting our time between Nanoose Bay and Blue Heron Ranch in Sammamish, Washington where I still have my dance/art studio, and many long time friends and family live. We are happy to have made this long term dream come true of having a respite home, just over the border,
in beautiful British Columbia.
Come visit!

"As an artist with a background in figurative life drawing, graphic journalism, design and illustration, I love to tell an open-ended visual story with my works. Using a variety of mediums including drawing, collage, painting, found objects assemblage and encaustic, I create allegorical works that may open doors to self-reflection and the discovery of pathways to a deeper part of the creative visual mind. Fascinated with the aesthetics of motion and rhythm, I often create works from my own experience as a long time dancer and equestrian, incorporating the relationship of humans and horses in movement."

Dance with a horse!
Intro to ‘Nia and Horses’ Somatic Education
November 16, 2025 at Paradise Acres Ranch, Nanoose Bay, BC
Teaching movement awareness with horses from a place of confident physical comfort.
“I love it when my Nia students begin to show their light – when the first laser thin beams shine through the tiniest holes, a little at a time, filling the room with color - even if it takes years for their spirit to break through. This openness contributes to a wild contagious atmosphere of exploration, expansiveness and growth, for all to enjoy and dip into.”
--Randee Fox - Nia First Degree Black Belt Teacher, Artist, Horsewoman
"The Joy of Dancing with Community
"The cords of connection go very deep on the dance floor and continue long after the class. The creative Human Soul is nourished, dancing with community, and longs to return for more. As we become more relaxed in our dance, the cords become 'chords' sung through our tuning fork-like bodies allowing us to ‘right’ our tone, release energetic buildup and return our bodies
and lives to harmony - daily.”
--Randee Fox, Nia Second Degree Black Belt Teacher

BLUE HERON RANCH LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT (a work in progress)
I would like to acknowledge that Blue Heron Ranch is situated on the traditional land of the Sammamish people, indigenously, who were a Coast Salish Native American tribe in the Sammamish River Valley in central King County, Washington. Sammamish is a Snoqualmie name. According to members of the Snoqualmie Tribe, the name is a corruption of two words: "Sqawx," the Snoqualmie name for Lake Sammamish, and "abs," a suffix which refers to people of a certain area. Their name is variously translated as ssts'p-abc, s-tah-PAHBSH or as Samena, which was corrupted into Sammamish. The name is derived from samma, meaning "the sound of the blue crane" and mish, meaning "river." They were also known to early European-American settlers as "Squak", "Simump", and "Squowh.", Squak is a corruption of sqwa'ux, meaning Issaquah Creek, which was a village site on Sammamish Lake. They were closely related to the Duwamish, and have often been considered a Duwamish sub-group as part of the Xacuabš who lived near Lake Washington.
Therefore I would like to acknowledge that Blue Heron Ranch is situated on the traditional land of the first indigenous people of Seattle, including the Duwamish, Snoqualmie, Sammamish, Suquamish, and Tulalip People past and present and honor with gratitude the land itself.
