Somatic support in Canterbury, Kent & online
Awareness Through Movement - ATM
Come join our thriving somatic community!
In a typical class, you will be led verbally through a movement pattern, or puzzle, and invited to attune to what you sense. You may be lying, rolling, sitting, standing or walking at different points in the lesson. You should wear loose, warm clothing. The movements might engage specific parts of you like your feet or shoulders, or the whole. You will be asked to notice different places and their relationship to the whole. Often the impossible becomes possible, and the possible easy in the course of the lesson!
My current classes are small - 4 or 5 people - giving the opporunity for individual support during the lesson and time for discussion and sharing afterwards. This is an important part of your growth and learning.
If you join us online, you don’t need to watch me on the screen, which means it feels more like a regular class than some practices where you need to watch. You should have as much space around you as possible, but at least enough for a yoga mat or folded blanket to lie on.
There are many things out of our control, but building our ability to adapt is within range. The ability to self-regulate and restore our grounded sense of self is important. Perhaps one of the best things to do in the world right now is to lie down and fine tune the art of listening to ourselves. The better to listen to how we meet our own and others’ needs.
After class, there is often a marked increase in your sense of wellbeing; you will find that you move more easily through life and often make surprise discoveries!
