When you move with awareness, you update the map.

Slow down.
Feel the habit.
Interrupt the unconscious pattern.
Create choice where there was autopilot.

In the quiet of slow movement, your nervous system learns something new.

March Class Series - Wake Up & Feel the Aliveness in Your Body

If you’ve been feeling stiff, tired, or like your body isn’t quite yours, this 4-week series is an invitation to slow down, tune in, & begin to move again. To notice the little signs of life returning, in your body & around you.

Over 4 weeks, we’ll explore:
🌱 Week 1 – Noticing & Sensing - Tune in. Start to feel again.
🌀 Week 2 – Coiling & Gathering - Awaken spinal & core elasticity.
🔥 Week 3 – Gentle Activation - Bring movement back to your body.
☯️ Week 4 – Integration & Exploration - Expand with full bodied awareness.

This is about feeling more awake in your body.
More responsive.
More like yourself again.

Spring doesn’t require a dramatic transformation.
It asks for small, consistent shifts.

If that feels timely for you, I’d love for you to join us.

You’re warmly welcome to drop in for individual classes or book the full 4-week series to move through the progression together.

Do you live your life on auto pilot?

What if there was another way?

One that gave you choice, agency & autonomy

What then 🤔

What do you think?

What Your Body Already Knows

Your body doesn’t need fixing.
It needs listening.

In Somatic Yoga we practice staying with sensation, without pushing, without shutting down, without overriding what’s there.

We slow down.
We feel.
We reconnect.

I invite you to join me in class

Tuesday morning at 9.30am online, or come and find me in person in Frome.

I’m tired of dogma.
I’m tired of catharsis being mistaken for healing.
I’m tired of transformation being marketed like a product.
I’m tired of six-week resets, twelve-step reinventions, fixed timelines for becoming “better.”

I’m tired of people claiming they have the answers.
And I’m deeply tired of being told what to do.

What I’ve learned, through teaching, through working with nervous systems, through living in a body, is that regulation does not respond well to force.

The nervous system does not reorganise because someone insists. It reorganises when it feels safe enough.

And safety is built through:
💚repetition
💚permission
💚slowness
💚choice
💚relationship

Not intensity. Not certainty. Not charisma.

The quiet path isn’t passive.
The subtle path isn’t weak.
The gentle path isn’t less effective.

It’s just harder to sell.

And those of us who choose it often feel we have to explain ourselves, as if we’re lacking ambition, or edge, or power.
We’re not.
We’re working with biology, not branding.

I’m so excited to share this series of workshops ✨

Each one will be a deep dive into somatic movement, embodied anatomy, and mindful motion.
A space to slow down.
To feel from the inside out.
To move in a way that is body-led rather than shape-led.

📍 14th - The Fundamentals of Somatic Movement - SOLD OUT - JOIN THE WAIT LIST

An experiential and immersive workshop laying the foundation for a body-led practice. We will explore how to reconnect to sensation, reawaken muscular intelligence, and move with greater awareness and choice.

📍 April 18th - Somatic Breath: Exploring the Breath from the Inside Out

A conscious exploration of the breath.
Together we’ll sense how the body can become a more open and responsive channel for breath and vitality, not by controlling the breath, but by creating the conditions for it to move freely.

📍 May 9th - Fluid Body: Moving from Your Centre

In this immersive workshop, we return to the body’s deep centre.
We’ll explore how movement becomes fluid, connected and whole when it is supported from within rather than driven from the surface.

📍 June 6th - The Skeleton: Feeling the Architecture of Movement

An exploration of bones and joints through yield, push, reach and pull.
By sensing the skeleton, we discover greater ease, alignment and intelligent sequencing in our yoga practice, supported by structure rather than effort.

These workshops are experiential, spacious and inquiry-based.

They’re for you if you’re curious about:
• moving with more ease
• developing balanced muscle tone
• reconnecting to sensation
• refining your practice from the inside out

If one of these speaks to you, I’d love to have you there 🤍

Message me for details or to book your place.

It’s half term.
Routines are different, the house is busier, and there’s often more noise and juggling than usual.

School holidays can be great, and they can also be overstimulating.
A simple reminder: movement supports nervous system resilience.
When things start to feel overwhelming, do one thing to move your body.

Go for a short walk.
Stretch your arms overhead.
Roll your shoulders.
Lie on the floor for a few minutes.
It doesn’t need to be a full practice.
Just move, and then notice what you feel.

🌿 Theme This Week
Resourcing from Within - Steadiness that arises internally
In class we’ll explore the idea that steadiness isn’t something we force, it’s something we sense.
Instead of bracing or pushing through, we’ll ask:
Where do I feel a sense of quiet strength or steadiness?
Is it in your feet?
Your breath?
Your back body?
Your centre?

Learning to notice and build from that place changes how we respond, especially in busy weeks like this.
