Change and movement happens frequently with clients on the table. Yet, how do clients transition from recipient into active mover, and continue their healing beyond the table? By using movement, sound, images, and dialogue, we are able to maximize participation and deepen the sensed experience of the client in session. These simple tools for coaching clients on the table become resources for on-going body process work in daily life.

Somatic Expression is a holistic approach to movement education and creative expression, a synthesis of kinesthetics, imagination and improvisation. In this approach, we work with the five elements of somatic experience – breath, vocalization, movement, contact and stillness – to support stability, mobility and agility on all levels.

In this workshop, you will explore a unique combination of movement, alignment, and expression and add creative resources to your toolbox. This workshop is an introduction to the 200-hour Somatic Expression Training for bodyworkers, movement educators, and fitness trainers.
