Thursday Lates: Somatic Workshop, led by Ashley Johnson

Somatic Workshop, led by Ashley Johnson

Moving Anatomy of the Heart
This workshop incorporates clay heart models, stethoscopes and somatic movement to sense the internal motion and sound of the heart. Through a process of increasing awareness of the heart muscle, mobilizing the spine and moving in varying relationships to gravity we explore fluid movement and physical strength.

She works with diverse populations in movement re-education, and injury rehabilitation in order to shift postural patterning and increase movement efficiency.
