Would YOU like to MOVE SKILFULLY, or learn how to TEACH OTHERS to become skilful movers?

Two Paths to Moving Skilfully

Movement Mastery for anyone & Practitioner Mastery for practitioners

Exercise safely, effectively and successfully

Pilates-Evolved exercise can have a wonderful effect on your body when performed wisely. Expert guidance from a musculoskeletal specialist can help you achieve your goals, so that you know which movements will bring you the results your body needs, and how to perform each movement with focus and awareness.

Yoga practised at home can bring a unique dimension to your physical and emotional wellbeing, without the need for long routines or extreme postures.

Pilates-Evolved exercise – for Osteopaths, from an Osteopath

Being an Osteopath or manual therapist doesn’t keep you in good physical condition, it highlights the need for you to be in good condition.

Strength and flexibility. Alignment, balance and coordination. Stability, proprioceptive awareness and mobility. How well you integrate these to perform movements needs effective control. Not just motor control, but sensory-motor control, to continually respond to stimuli throughout a movement. And not just physical stimuli, as previous experience and expectations affect how you move, and your thoughts and emotions create an embodied experience. Maybe it is time for a new experience…

Having a direct, first-hand experience of knowing how to move more skilfully will enhance the way you teach others. If you are an Osteopath you will then be prescribing from a place of authenticity, of knowing in the body.
