Somatic Yoga classes are based on the mindful movement work of Moshe Feldenkrais, Thomas Hanna and Eleanor Crisswell. Somatics is an interesting movement form that uses a range of simple, repeated movements to explore and release deeply held patterns in the physical and emotional body/mind. Many somatic movements are performed lying down so it’s important that you are comfortable getting up and down off the floor if you’d like to join this class. Somatic Yoga practice is ideal for those who want to deepen their awareness of their body and mind patterns, or who wish to slow down and benefit from a sense of increased spaciousness and ease of movement.
