You will get written copies of the exercises and a practice schedule for working on your own at home, and I often supply audios of the exercises to listen to as you do them.<\/p>\n<p>\u200b\u200bSomatics movements are done slowly and gently giving you time to sense and release tight muscles. You work at your own level of comfort, never pushing into pain so that it makes you cringe.<\/p>\n<p>Face to face classes also give you the opportuntity to discuss specific issues that you have and which movements will help the most. I can often provide some time at the start or end of classes to look at your posture and see how that might be causing pain or dicomfort.<\/p>\n<p>\u200bDress is casual, you only need loose clothing and a pilates or yoga mat.
