Somatic Training is a holistic approach to body awareness and movement, emphasizing the internal experience of the body. It focuses on understanding how the body is designed to move and visualizing what happens when we move in certain ways. Somatic Training aims to improve movement patterns through heightened body awareness and mindfulness. At the core of this approach is the use of experiential anatomy, education, and imagery.
Mental Imagery is at the heart of Somatic Training – it combines visualization techniques with physical exercises to enhance movement efficiency and body awareness. This approach allows individuals to re-educate their nervous system, leading to improved posture, reduced tension, and greater ease of movement.
Somatic Training offers an educational process that embodies optimal movement taught in a simple, joyful manner that everyone can understand. It includes practices such as Feldenkrais Method, Alexander Technique, Franklin Method® and Body-Mind Centering, which focus on gentle, mindful movements and explorations of the body's capabilities.
