Somatic ATM Class

Using a gentle, somatic education approach that uses mindful movement and attention to improve how you move, feel, and function in daily life.

Rather than stretching, strengthening, or pushing the body, Feldenkrais works by engaging the brain’s natural neuroplasticity — helping you discover easier, more efficient ways of moving through awareness and exploration.

This session is suitable for all abilities and will finish with a short guided meditation to help integrate the experience and leave you feeling settled and grounded.

You’ll be verbally guided through slow, gentle movement sequences designed to:

• Increase awareness of how you move
• Reduce unnecessary effort and tension
• Improve coordination, comfort, and ease
• Support recovery, learning, and overall wellbeing

Movements are often done lying down, sitting, or standing, with plenty of options to rest and adapt as needed.

We’ll close the session with a guided meditation, allowing time for integration, rest, and reflection.

This class is free to welly members, check out www.neonlifeacademy.co.uk/gisw for more info, or feel free to drop in for £10.
