🟡Hi Movement peeps,

Recently, I’ve been keeping my movement practice gentle and focused on nervous system regulation, especially through breath work. Most of my time has been spent on soft, restorative routines that leave me feeling refreshed and balanced. I find that dedicating even 10 to 20 minutes a day to these practices helps me stay uplifted.

🤗Here’s a quick look at what I’ve been doing:
- **Myofascial Release:** Gentle movements to keep tissues nourished and fluid. I’m focusing on the lower leg to maintain mobility and comfort.
- **Weight-Bearing Exercises:** Simple four-point kneeling positions, sometimes with a dome or rolled-up towel under my ankle or foot for support. This helps build dynamic stability in my arms and shoulders and connects body and mind to the DFL (Deep Front Line—the body’s myofascial core).
- **Sidelying Exercises for TFL Lubrication:** Targeting the Tensor Fasciae Latae (TFL) on the outer hip and thigh helps release tension in the IT band and improves hip mobility. This is especially useful for runners, cyclists, or anyone with tightness in the lateral hip.
Tone Regulation: Fluid flow. Including Movement sequences that promote tissue hydration and glide. Breath work. Spinal movement, Focus to introducing gentle exercises neck massage. Easy and gentle twist that feel good for my hip and spine. Inviting calm.

🟢I make sure to keep everything slow and mindful, focusing on gentle breath work and meditation as my main priority. When I have the energy, I add a short mat routine, but I always listen to what my body needs.

🟣I’d love to hear what movement routines you’re enjoying this summer, or if you’ve discovered any new practices that help you feel your best! Sharing our experiences can inspire and support each other, and I always appreciate hearing what everyone is working on.

🟢Remember, small consistent steps make a big difference—keep moving and enjoying summer! Looking forward to connecting with you all and hearing about your movement journeys.

💫Hello everyone,

I just wanted to drop a line to say thank you so much for the wonderful wishes, phone calls, and thoughtful messages. Your kind words truly lifted my spirits during a tough time, and I’m so grateful for the support from each of you.

I wanted to share a quick update and thank you all again. On Saturday, December 27, 2025, while walking barefoot along the local beach and boardwalk, I unfortunately stepped on a large piece of wood that lodged itself between the third and fourth toes of my right foot. The pain was immediate and intense, and I quickly realized I couldn’t remove it myself—definitely not an activity I’d recommend for anyone’s weekend plans! After a few minor hiccups at the first hospital, where I experienced some delays in being seen, I decided to try another hospital and was relieved to receive prompt care.

Just a few days later, on December 30, I had my first surgery, followed by a second on December 31, during which they removed a substantial piece of wood. I am now on the road to recovery and feeling optimistic. My next appointment is scheduled for next week, and for now, I’m taking it easy, catching up on sleep, and enjoying plenty of healthy smoothies—Danny has truly been a champion in keeping me well-nourished!

Your support has been a real source of comfort, and I’m grateful, thanks to all of you. I’m looking forward to getting back to my favorite activities and driving again soon.

Thank you again for all your care and encouragement. I’ll be sure to keep you posted on my progress.
Thank you for your heartfelt wishes and kind words shared on the Create Movement and empower_para_sempre_claudia platforms. Your encouragement means a lot to me, and I am truly grateful for each and every one of you and your unique contributions. 

Wishing everyone well, and sending love to all.
Claudia 💕🌺

✨ Farewell 2025 — What a Year of Movement, Healing & Growth! ✨

The final days of 2025 didn’t quite go as planned for me. I spent the last four days of the year in and out of hospital — and was finally discharged on New Year’s Eve. While it’s been a rocky road, I’m on the mend now and, true to my nature, I’m choosing to see the positives and the lessons in it all.

As we step into the new year — and into the Year of the Horse (a symbol of forward movement and strength) — I’ll be taking a couple of weeks to rest and heal my foot properly. I’ll keep you updated on the January class schedule, and I’ll also be sharing some of my rehab Pilates along the way through my socials and newsletter.

⭐️Thank you for an absolutely incredible year of movement, joy, and healing therapies. From new classes, group and private sessions (both in-person and online), running retreats in Queensland, launching SOMA VITA in Mornington, and supporting older generations with home-visit rehabilitation Pilates , FAMO Fascia Movement — it has been a true privilege to guide so many of you through injury recovery, health goals, wellbeing journeys, and of course plenty of fascial-focused, science-informed movement.

⭐️This year also included beautiful Reiki, Pellowah and Crystal Therapy sessions — along with personalised crystal gridding and mentoring to support spiritual transformation. And somewhere in there… I even managed to complete five new courses in 2025 — keeping the brain switched on and inspired!

To everyone who trusted me with your health, healing, movement and spiritual journey this year — thank you from the bottom of my heart. 💫

Wishing you a healthy, prosperous and joyful start to 2026.
I look forward to seeing you back in the studio very soon.
With gratitude, always. 💖 Claudia

💫Life overall will begin to slow down in the Christmas holiday season and the excessive busyness will be a thing of the past. This period will remind us that we don’t have to do much I order to recharge. Today’s practice was tailored to nurture the body in a way that feels like a rejuvenation. Just 10 minutes of myofascial release each day or committing to a few simple stretch and flex exercises, breath work rather than procrastinating and distraction on the phone or 💻, can make all the difference!
💫If your body & mind is graving for some movement in this festive season, listen to your body, roll out the mat and go with that flow!
If movement is not your thing and you might find an increased desire for time alone to explore your inner landscape, good move! I think a little ‘alone time ‘ is not going to hurt after all the Christmas functions & gatherings 💫
Enjoy your Christmas & holidays 😍🎄

💫Reflections on 2025
I am truly blessed to have amazing clients, supportive colleagues, and a fantastic team. Your enthusiasm for learning about the human body and posture has made this year unforgettable. 
Special thanks to my Reiki Master Jeremy for his ongoing guidance as I continue my studies in Reiki, Mediation and Chi- Activation.

💫This year has brought new friendships, enriching meditation lessons and courses like FAMO 1,  Reiki, Chi- Activation, and memorable trips to beautiful destinations on the peninsula. 
💫A recent getaway to Sydney with my husband Danny allowed me to recharge and reflect on future dreams. 
I am also thankful for the opportunity to run a retreat in the Sunshine Coast Noosa Hinterland at Amara, a place that holds special meaning and marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter.

💫SOMA VITA practices offer a warm space for self - healing journey. 2025 events have been a great success. I am very grateful for being able to host those events in Mornington at Elisabeth’s place.
