Movements We Will Explore in Class
Beginner-friendly mindful movement lessons, suitable for newcomers.

These lessons will continue to form a primer for easier movements top to toe. We will be…
Turning with ease
Swimming motions for a better back
Walking with ease through a longer spine & mobile hip joints
Smooth transitions sitting up from lying down

Who Enjoys These Classes
I have a mix of people who enjoy my classes. You may be…
A movement fan → looking to add new skills and nuance to existing sports or leisure abilities
A meditation student or teacher → keen to experience this embodied version of mindfulness or meditation
A lifelong learner → with a mind wide open and an appetite for personal development
A quester after comfort, seeker of pain reduction → someone journeying through rehab or physical capacity building
You’ve lost some confidence → and want to hone your ability to tune into your body’s sensations and signals… so that this body awareness can give you a taste of enjoying yourself in motion again
What Happens in Class - Nuts & Bolts?
Live sessions on Zoom (60 mins each) → the 45-minute lesson followed by optional Q&A with discussion
If you book the whole course, you get downloadable audio versions of the lessons to keep & use as many times as you like
For all ages & abilities, even with pain, injury, fatigue or anxiety
Mostly lying down - with a big focus on how to maximise your comfort & receptivity
Once we start, you listen to my voice guide you → you follow along, moving as I describe for you → you don’t have to look at the screen
Each lesson is an exercise in curiosity, novel movement exploration and ease → surprisingly, this helps you to move with more skill and less effort than before
If you have a challenge we can talk before the course starts to figure out a bespoke plan for you & your situation
Do I need any special kit?
No.
Warm, loose clothes
A mat or rug to lie on
A couple of small towels or pillows for optional padding
A phone, tablet or computer connected to the internet, so you can click on the Zoom link I send you to join the class → there is no charge for using Zoom
