Many dance, exercise and mindful movement classes instruct you how to move, where to place your body parts and what you are trying to achieve in these positions. My approach guides you, but is less about following my instructions and more about following your body.
My practice integrates lineages of authentic movement and experiential anatomy. In my all my groups I will guide you to feel where your body is, focus your attention in places or processes in your body and encourage you to feel your body senses coming alive to your attention. Thus your unique body will offer you inner guidance from your body senses as to how to place your body in the space and how or whether to move or not.
The skill and learning is how to unlearn the conditioning that tells you how you should look, move, conform to the norm. The adventure is in becoming more natural, more authentic and embodied which can increase your confidence, creativity and freedom from conditioning in your body.
Resource yourself and explore embodiment at a weekly class; focus on an aspect of applied embodiment at a more specialist workshop; embark on an embodied education course that will take you deeper into knowing your body as you.

Courses
I run shorter and longer courses which allow for a supportive group and ongoing enquiry to become the foundation for your embodied learning.
Embodied Narratives – a closed group held in person in a movement room in Stroud and in Nature near you. Nature and Culture want to influence us in the living fabric of our bodymind and if we become aware of this weave, we can engage choice in the balancing of these very real and important influences on how we experience life in our bodies. The series supports you to explore and relate with both in guided journeys and personal enquiry.
