Movement to make you feel good
Learn how with the Feldenkrais® movement method

I love to help people discover joy in their movement possibilities. And become more comfortable in their own skin. I use the Feldenkrais Method® to do this.

I am totally non-sporty, with a lifelong sense of being clumsy and with constant niggles and aches. So, I can understand my students who are in pain or fed up with hurting themselves in a bid to stay fit and active.

This method is practical and gentle, suited to any age or ability. We use small moves for big gains.

Whether you want a looser, pain-free body, calmer mind or more alert brain, you can bring the benefits with you off the mat and into the rest of your life.

Classes & Workshops

The guided mat classes and workshops for groups are called Awareness Through Movement®.

These sessions are based on comfort, ease for all and step-by-step improvement at your own pace.

• There is a general weekly online class in Awareness Through Movement® – Sat 10am
  • It is *free* to join your first online class, to try it out and ask me questions. I want everybody to enjoy it before they sign up for more!
• There are monthly online series on specific topics – Sat 11:30 am
• Workshops take place in York on occasional weekends – topics include  Movement to soothe & de-stress & Restore your back 
• As Covid restrictions ease, I hope to start a weekly class in York again soon
