Feel Good & Other Benefits of Playful Movement
These holistic lessons can help many aspects of your body, mind & brain. And each lesson stands alone.
This movement method always involves gentleness, mindfulness and an exploratory spirit. The goal of the lesson is not paramount. The process is where the magic happens. This mindset is close to ‘improv’ where you have to act and respond in the moment, without having any idea of a specific destination.
There is no clear-cut right or wrong way to move in these classes. You will discover ways of moving that you find enjoyable.

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 taught lessons on Zoom (60 mins each)
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 lesson 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
