what is movement work therapy?
integrated movement, exercise science principles
and yoga therapy
-
why is movement work therapy essential?
imagine our quality of living with limited or no movement…
living is movement
movement gives function
movement is medicine
-
our expertise in the principles of movmement and exercise science, together with yoga therapy, we have created a somatic approach for individuals in guiding people like you to establish a healthy relationship with your body and through that to find your connection in balancing the mind and body
-
movement work therapy will prescribe specific regimens of postures, breathing exercises, and relaxation techniques to suit individual needs.
-
this approach aims at the holistic treatment of various kinds of psychological or somatic dysfunctions ranging from back problems to emotional distress
(Georg Feuerstein, Ph.D.)
-
there is an understanding of the human being as an integrated body-mind system, which can function optimally only when there is a state of dynamic balance
(Georg Feuerstein, Ph.D.)

what you can expect from a movement work therapy session
to work with a trained psychosomatic therapist also specialising in yoga therapy, exercise and sports science with at least 18 years of collective coaching and teaching experience.
to practice in a trauma-informed space meaning that the therapist will have the experience to professionally guide or challenge you at your pace based on your needs in a therapeutically safe environment,
that you do NOT need to be physically active or experienced in yoga to do sessions with us,
to grow and embrace your personal journey with your soma with the guidance of our compassionate therapist.
-
what you will not see...
being forced into a maximum range of flexibility (because this is not okay long-term) or extreme poses or high-intensity exercises (we will guide you based on your present moment capabilities and will build things with you from here),
expectations of having to mould into a set form or look in your practice (all our body is differently made in a unique way and we embrace self-acceptance).
