Your Somatic Superpowers

Kinesa®/Feldenkrais Method® Workshop

September 20-21 in London, UK

How do we adapt without compromising our wellbeing? What does it mean to have agency in the face of difficult choices? And most importantly, how can we learn to develop physical, mental and emotional resilience in order to sail through these difficult times? Moshe Feldenkrais defined health not as the absence of illness, but as the ability to recover.

This workshop will include several Feldenkrais Awareness Through Movement® lessons and use critical thinking, thought experiments and guided exercises to apply the seven principles of the Kinesa® process to our learning.

Somatic Movement Strategies
for Relieving Challenging Holding Patterns
August 16 &17 
WNC School of Massage & Natural Healing in Asheville, NC

I’m delighted to share this upcoming in-person workshop in collaboration with the WNC School of Massage and Natural Healing in Asheville, NC.

This workshop will explore how Awareness Through Movement® lessons can offer pain relief options for both clients and practitioners. We will look at how the movement sequences can inform hands on practice with a focus on chronic tension areas: jaw, shoulder/neck, low back, ankles and feet. You will have the opportunity to experience the benefits by participating in the lessons, which will then lead into exploring applications of the movement lessons through touch. 

Welcome to possibility!
