Single session bookings £11. Somatics is natural movement, which is movement that is co-ordinated through the centre of the body. The aim is to release tension, which helps relieve and prevent pain. Tension builds up over time and becomes habitual. Then it can no longer be felt. If it can’t be felt it can’t be released. Somatics helps you to find the tension. You contract into it, just enough to feel it, and once you feel it you can release it. You release slowly, which gives your nervous system time to reset the tension in the muscles. It’s the experience of slowly contracting and releasing that is “somatic” - it’s an inner experience, an experience of letting go. Over time you get more and more in tune with your body and so you keep improving. This course is for everyone and especially for people who have pain, discomfort, aching issues. The exercises are done lying on the floor. By the end of the course you will have a daily routine to practise. Sessions Include: 1. Exploring pandiculation: Exercises include shoulder releases, “arch and flatten”. 2. Moving from your centre: Exercises include “the flower” 3. The red and green light reflexes.
