Tachina Rudman is an artist, a performer, and personal growth facilitator. She is the creator of Open Your Heart Through Art, growth, healing and self-discovery through creativity. Tachina specializes in working with people with a wide range of needs, spanning from those wanting to recover from serious trauma, to those wishing to access unexplored parts of themselves in order to lead more fully integrated and fulfilled lives.
In both her teaching and her teaching, she integrates her background in movement and art, using a whole-body-breath approach to the art-making process. As a figurative sculptor, she works primarily with the figure in clay, and shows her work in various juried and group shows throughout the Bay Area. She is an exhibiting member of ACGA (Association of Clay and Glass Artist of California), and received two BA’s from San Francisco State University: Fine Arts (Ceramics) and Dance (Performance, Education, Ethnology). In both her own art and performance process, and in her teaching, she is committed to the use of art and movement as a means to joy, self-empowerment, and healing through self-expression.
