Takaya Institute of Somatic Healing Arts This page is dedicated to Clinical Somatic Education. Like this page to stay tuned for Somatic Movement classes and workshops in Southern California.

This page is dedicated to Clinical Somatic Education or Hanna Somatic Education or just "Somatics" for short. Somatics is a highly effective form of movement-based therapy whereby the knowledge of neurophysiology is used to help to release chronic pain and tension through conscious movement. Somatics goes to the root cause of muscular pain and tension which is in the habit-forming brain. By retraining the brain to release unconsciously contracted muscles one is able to restore full function and control of the body, release pain such as lower back and neck pain, move more easily, reverse "aging", correct unhealthy posture and relax the nervous system. Somatics can be done as a form of movement practice similar to yoga or group exercise or can be done on an individual basis with a Somatic Educator. It is very gentle and calming and requires no special gear, equipment or gadgets. Recommended for the elderly and those with chronic pain or neurological conditions, Somatics however is easy to learn and can be done by any'body'.

Hello friends, I am emerging from my hermits’ cave to once again help people heal their chronic pain the natural way.

I am teaching my first Somatic Healing workshop in Southern California at MPower Yoga Rancho in Claremont on April 14th 2-4pm. This workshop will be recorded and anyone who joins will receive the video for FREE.

I’m posting the link to sign up below in the comments.
If you want to secure your spot you will need to create an account, will take you only 2 minutes, tops.

It’s exciting to bring something I believe holds incredible value to any person’s life. Not only is it incredibly easy to use this method once learned, it’s super practical when life puts us through intense trials.

Feeling calm, relaxed and pain free is an essential aspect of a happy life.

I hope to see some familiar faces at this workshop as I haven’t been around the Southern California area for quite some time and I always love a happy reunion.

Today Seiji OshenZa demonstrated Assisted Pandiculation live on our online show “Somatic Secrets” on
Assisted pandiculation is a hands-on Somatic healing technique with which we can help your brain release deep seated habitual muscle patterns that keep us locked up, tight and in pain. Seiji shows us that it’s actually quite easy to help someone release neck and shoulder tension, lower back pain and knee/hip problems. You can watch the replay on our YouTube page. Look for Somatic Secrets Episode 7. Link to YT account in bio.
