Somatic Movement Class with Therapist, Susan Roberts

Join therapist Susan Roberts for a series of three gentle somatic movement classes designed to help you reconnect with your body, move with greater ease and freedom, and feel more grounded in everyday life.

Who is it for?

These classes are suitable for anyone who would like to spend less time caught up in a busy mind and feel more connected to their body. They may be particularly helpful if you:

• carry tension in your body and are looking for gentle ways to release it
• would like to move with greater ease, comfort and freedom
• are interested in supporting nervous system regulation through mindful movement
• want to feel more grounded, present and at ease in yourself

No previous experience is necessary.

Accessibility

The classes are mostly mat-based, so participants should be able to get down to and up from the floor independently. You’re very welcome to use an aid if that helps.

Do I need any special clothing or equipment?

It’s best to wear comfortable, stretchy clothing that allows for a ease of movement. Layers are good so you feel warm or cool to suit, socks to keep your feet warm.

Please bring a yoga mat, a warm throw and a pillow.

Do I need any previous experience?

No, this class is for adults of all ages. Beginners are welcome, as are those with more experience.
