A neutral pelvis means that our spine can act as a “spring” in our bipedal form, to provide a buffer for the compressive forces moving through the body as we navigate through space and gravity. A simple approach to finding a neutral pelvis is to experiment with the...

Pelvic Exploration In this class, the focus is on the pelvis to create hip mobility and in turn – lumbar stability. Through visualising and mapping out a pelvic clock, we engage in a series of exercises and movement across planes to find stability and release in...

A lot of tension in the body is often created through accumulative tension in the muscles, either through compensatory movement habits or through our stress response. We tend to forget that our skeletal elements such as the bones and ligaments give us form and...

This week’s focus on #somawithDaphneandLucy are your precious feet 🙂 The relative distance of our feet from our brain often causes us to disregard the health and care of our feet. We tend to ignore the messages coming from this very distal part of...

Navel Radiation is a pre-vertebrate pattern within the Basic Neurological Patterns/Developmental Movement paradigm of Body-Mind Centering® developed by Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen. It is the pattern of radial symmetry and relates to our earliest connection with our...
