Drawing on ideas found in Awareness Through Movement we will work in guided lessons with the emphasis on independent process, always finding our own pace.             
The workshops aim to be as accessible and inclusive as possible - an opportunity to take some time and space to explore. No particular training is necessary, just an interest in discovering through your own movement experience - whether your focus is to inform your own work or to find more ease and spontaneity in everyday actions. Bring a mat and/or blanket for floor work and warm clothes.

Come and join us in explorations with a focus on:

  • each working at our own pace with ease and enjoyment
  • sessions designed to be open for each person to explore and to feedback
  • reflections on our own individual movement practice
  • reflections on potentials for inclusive group work
  • strategies for finding creative solutions in physical exploration
Bring a mat or blanket if you can.

Louise Coleman is a Performance Maker and Inclusive Practitioner. Working across the boundaries between theatre and dance, her work uses movement and autobiographical stories to experiment with challenging different understandings of the body, including (dis)ability. The Feldenkrais Method influences all of Louise’s work.

Fiona Wright has been making performances and teaching for over twenty years, working through choreography, writing and installation. Awareness Through Movement (Feldenkrais Method) has been her main route and influence towards somatic practices and experiential anatomy.
