Move Better, Keep well
A brand new and exclusive course offering a combination of Somatic movement, Yoga and the principles of the Alexander Technique to help you reclaim movement in your body and release pain and become more active again. Somatic movement, like that of Yoga and the Alexander Technique is about body-mind integration. You will become aware of the way you move, how your body has adapted to your muscles becoming tight or restricted due to habitual patterns, emotional stress, injuries or trauma. The skills you learn will help reawaken movement and flexibility and improve the effectiveness of your breathing. You will be encouraged to approach the gentle exercises and postures as an exploration of your body; moving slowly and consciously. Prosp User 3
Move Better, Keep Well is suitable for everyone. However, you must be able to get down onto the floor and stand up, as the exercises are done lying down, sitting and standing. Prosp User 4
Please make sure you have a suitable space available to exercise in, where you will be able to see your screen easily and safely. Wear loose, comfortable clothing (for example yoga or jogging bottoms). You will require a carpeted floor, or a non-slip yoga mat, and have a suitable upright chair (preferably without arms), a yoga block, or books and a cushion. It is recommended that you work in bare feet. Prosp User 5
