Soma Yoga Classes
Our Somatic Movement Classes focus on your potential to improve your internal awareness and physical control of your body. This enables you to relieve pain caused by muscular tension, increase your mobility and brings a profound sense of ease to both mind and body.
Classes are open to all levels of ability and experience.
About Somatic Movement
Over the course of our lives our muscles become stuck in patterns of habitual involuntary contraction, caused by repetitive tasks, injury and physical or emotional stress. The brain and nervous system lose the ability to sense and release this involuntary contraction, this results in tired, tight muscles which in turn cause pain and discomfort. In Somatic Movement we call this Sensory Motor Amnesia (SMA).
The practice of Somatic Movement re-educates the mind to muscle connection, this re-education enables the brain to re-establish voluntary control of the muscles thereby releasing the involuntary contraction and erasing the SMA.
This re-education restores natural movement patterns, erasing pain and allowing you to move more freely, efficiently and easily.
Somatic Movement is a very gentle and mindful practice and as such classes are open to all levels of physical ability and require no previous yoga experience.
