I am passionate to support people to make change at the level of neuroplasticity for deep and lasting impact. I am especially love the participatory aspect of the Feldenkrais Method, meaning, you bring a question to the session and we explore together in the direction of your goal respecting your agency, your intelligence and your creativity. You are already creative, resourceful and whole and our work supports you to move in the direction of aliveness.
I have a back ground in the performing arts and my first training is as an actor. I first encountered Feldenkrais in my acting training following 14 years of classical ballet and came to it with hyper mobility and hyper extension issues, a chronic ankle injury, chronic back pain. It changed my life. I always knew that some day I wanted to become a Feldenkrais teacher so that I could help people in the way it had so profoundly helped me.
These days I integrate my Feldenkrais practice with my work as a somatic coach as well as broader nervous system education and creative practice. My own modality Integrative Somatic Feedback brings weaves together all these elements. I also train coaches to work with embodied intelligence at the ICF accredited Somatic School.
My private practice spans 1:1 work as well as online group facilitated process for supporting aliveness to happen. Some of these group processes are collaborations. Including with Trauma Therapist Kate Daisy Grant (the Aliveness Lab) and Poet and Zen priest Brooke McNamara.
Parallel to this, I am also a theatre practitioner. My latest piece You Aren't Doing It Wrong If No One Knows What You Are Doing is a solo performance about failure, feeling like an idiot and music. It is a Brighton Festival commissions and supported by Arts Council England.
