Nov 13 “Pandiculation plus water” uses the lovely weightiness of water imagery to find a fuller release into gravity and out of tension patterns, habits, that the nervous system and muscles tend to collect over time. This response to emotional, physical trauma and stress can be reversed with these gentle but powerful movement techniques.
Nov 20 class postponed to Dec 11
Nov 27 “Connecting the Feet to the Center” Freeing the central body effects the way the weight moves into the feet, and the opposite is true as well. We will use a variety of foot, lower leg movements, listening to the response in the center, and creating a more intelligent conversation between the two for more sensual and easeful walking, running, or any activity you enjoy.
Dec 4 “Exploring circular and spiral movement” is about liberating the potential for those movements in many joints of the body, including the hips, shoulders, spine. We will “lubricate” these joints by freeing the muscles that interact with them, and notice how that affects our breathing and many everyday movements.
Dec 11 “Somatic Face Lift” offers specific and fun pandiculations for the face muscles and what’s connected to it, including the scalp, neck, shoulders, torso, and extremities. Free up your smile, the tension around your eyes, forehead, jaw, and more!

Online somatic movement classes: Learn these gentle but powerful self-care techniques to bring new mobility, intelligence, sensation, control to the muscles, and teach the brain to bring muscles to their optimum resting length. We will avoid stretch and pain, and approach the nervous system in an entirely different way. This movement technique, based on the work of the late neuromuscular pioneer, Thomas Hanna PhD, reverses and releases the contractive patterns present in your nervous system, the imprint of your history, both emotional and physical trauma. You can teach your nervous system a calmer setting, excellent for stress reduction. If your nervous system is more calm, your intelligence is more available to you, perfect for what we need right now, which is to be more resilient, adaptable, and better creative problem solvers!
Wear comfortable, flexible clothing, and have a chair, mat or padded firm surface, and several folded towels and/or 3 yoga blankets ready as elevation, props.
Location: Online Zoom platform. (if you are new to zoom, you must download the app at zoom.us prior to class. It takes about 10 min to do so, and is free, but don’t leave it to the last minute.)
Policy for Late Arrivals: Kindly arrive no later than 5 min prior to the start of class. The zoom is open 15 min early. Late arrivals after the start of class may not be admitted. It is distracting to the class, teacher, and recording process. If you are late and not admitted, you will have access to the recording the next day. Thanks for your support and understanding with this issue!
