Whether you are an athlete who feels tight, or you have a mobility restriction, lack of flexibility or persistent pain, this workshop will provide you with easy and enjoyable daily self-care strategies to keep your back, hips, legs and feet flexible and comfortable, and restore fluidity of movement.
Learn to undo habituated patterns and muscle guarding that can contribute to a host of conditions such as sciatica, piriformis syndrome, knee and foot pain and a feeling of heaviness or labouring in your gait. Fun and simple Somatic movements to ease tension and help restore mobility and comfort.
*Improve your ability to do the sports and activities you love
*Feel lighter, free-er and more supple
*Run, dance, hike, walk, climb stairs, tie your shoes and generally move with more comfort and ease
*Easy-to-do movements to get you going in the morning, give you movement snacks during the day and to ease tension at the end of the day
This workshop focusing on hips and legs (but actually affecting and benefiting the musculature of the whole body) will start to give you real relief from the discomfort that is associated with muscular restriction and tense muscles. We'll do some of the Somatics 'big hitters' in the first half of the session - movements that are effective, easy-to-learn and begin to remind the brain of the real estate in your body that it is in command of. The latter parts will concentrate on the pelvis, legs and feet. You will begin to apply what you have learned and sensed to give you greater ease and comfort in walking.
Places are limited.

Hi. I’m Cheryl and I can help you to :
⬤Ease pain ⬤ Move better ⬤Lean to Relax ⬤Feel well ⬤Get back to activities that bring joy to your life
I know what it means to hurt in your body. To feel terribly restricted and limited. To fear movement. To suffer the anxiety, mental anguish and retreat from life that so often accompany physical pain.
I also know how it feels to get better.
Yet that is just personal experience. What is more important is having an understanding of the mechanisms that drive pain, stress and trauma - and how to dial those down, and understanding how movement works. THAT is how I got better.
I can help YOU make sense of your pain, turn down the volume on it, develop resilience to it and pursue the things that give you joy. My number one goal is to empower you to help yourself.
