This series is comprised of 8 individual lessons, teaching you to release unconsciously held muscles beginning at the core of the body out to the periphery. You will also learn the "Daily Somatic Essentials", a sequence of exercises that can be done anytime, anywhere, in as little as 5 minutes, in order to maintain better flexibility, coordination, and balance, resulting in a decrease of the aches and pains commonly attributed to injury and aging. Because this is a progressive class, please make every effort to attend all the classes. Missed classes can be made up at a later time, as we re-run this class regularly.
$90 per 8-class card, or $14 per class. February 12 - April 2.

Are you new to Somatics or have you taken classes with us before? If your answer is yes to either of those questions then this class is for you! We have designed this class with the student in mind. This drop-in class is good for beginning or advanced students.
This is a great way to:
take your practice deeper,
customize your routines,
learn new movements for different areas of the body that can be done sitting, standing, and on the floor
bring in your concerns and get individual attention and instruction.
Do your shoulders and back ache from long hours at the computer? Do you get a tight sore neck or tension headaches? Do your hips and back hurt at the end of a long day?
This series of six classes will address a variety of postural imbalances that cause chronic pain throughout the body, with a special focus on upper body issues. Through gentle movements and increased internal awareness, class participants will gradually acquire an array of tools for effective self-care.
