A modern yoga with ancient roots.

Bring the wisdom of somatic movement education into your hatha yoga & meditation practice. These practices support agility, equanimity, quiet mind and endless discovery.

Awareness of habitual moving, thinking and attention patterns is possible; and with awareness sits liberation.

Change the Way You Move, Change the Way You Live

Somatic Movement Education expands our possibilities for moving and thus living.

An opportunity to re-awaken inherent agility and to move with ease. This sensory-motor learning process of non-strenuous movement patterns & explorations gives the brain the necessary feedback to release muscles from chronic habitual holding patterns (neuromuscular re-patterning).

These slow, gentle movement inquiries liberate us from layers of involuntary, habitual holding patterns.

Chronic tension patterns change as the body regains its innate ability to self-correct to ease and efficiency (neuromuscular re-patterning).

These movement awareness practices invite quiet mind, a deep unwinding and endless discovery.

Discover the amazing capacity of your nervous system for somatic releasing, resourcing and re-education.

Bring agility, balance, strength and ease to all of the movement activities in your life.

These 8 neurodevelopmental movement patterns focus on the fundamental patterns which originally wired our brain/central nervous system. These patterns are the foundation for all movement and support optimal movement & cognitive function in any activity you do.

BrainDance is an excellent cognitive and physical warm up.

The re-patterning will improve any physical activity you enjoy.

A delicious dive into structured and improvisational somatic movement explorations.
