Moving Soma

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at moving soma. Amanda is so welcoming, I felt comfortable with new people within a new space straight away! I learnt so much from attending classes and speaking to individuals involved in the course, which I will definitely take onto my further learning. I will go back at any opportunity that I can, I feel very grateful to have been welcomed into such an open and enriching space.

I am in my first year of my Somatic Movement Therapy and Education training with Dr Amanda Williamson at Moving Soma. Amanda's depth of knowledge about the body and the science that underpins Somatic work is incredible. The work gives you space to explore your body and mind as one. It can help with pain, anxiety, depression and more. I always leave Moving Soma in a different state of mind than when I arrive (feeling much calm and relaxed) The studio has a very calming and relaxing atmosphere and Amanda is so friendly you feel at ease as soon as you walk in the door. There is no judgement there so you can really let your fears and emotion come out in words or in movement. 100% recommend visiting the studio!

Moving Soma was a wonderful experience. A way to disconnect from modern world. Amanda was so welcoming and put you at ease. She facilitated the healing tools with her extensive knowledge which allowed me to release emotions and physical symptoms manifesting within my body within 1 session of working together. It was a brilliant way of bringing calm to my body. I enjoyed it thoroughly and Id definitely go back. Id recommend anyone whos thinking about it to give it a try. You wont be disappointed its a unique experience and Ive never experienced anything quite like it even after many of my own experiences and knowledge of what Ive learnt along the way of mind-body. Its something you have to experience for yourself to understand.

Finding Moving Soma and being introduced to Amandas work through her community sessions has been transformational for me. The studio is a sanctuary that holds a safe space, full of light and nature where I can unfurl and begin settle into a slower more natural rhythm, drop to gravity and come home to my body. As someone without a dance background Ive found this process very liberating. Both the space and my experiences during our sessions have been profoundly nurturing and healing. Amanda is knowledgable and inspiring, helping me to develop a deeper awareness of my joints, tissues and nervous system and gain new perspectives. I am also grateful for the opportunity to witness and connect with other likeminded people and reengage with my creativity and the natural world through mindful movement.

What an incredible practice Dr Williamson has created and what a gifted and sensitive teacher she is. Having just attended my first weekend of training I am blown away by how Amanda has created such an instrinsically intelligent and intuitive practice which is rooted in the science of understanding the delicate complexity of our bodies neurology and physiology. Moreover, it is an unbelievably effective healing modality! After a lifetime of trauma, accidents and chronic pain and a lifetime of searching for relief, I am deeply moved by how such a seemingly "simple" practice offered me such a profound and life changing experience in such a short space of time. After a few short training sessions, my physical body (and so all of me! ) felt so happy, so relaxed, so connected to my innate self and so in tune with, well, the unified field, or Source. It feels like this work is genius and perfect for these time we are experiencing. Only through individually healing the broken and missing connections buried within us, allowing us to find our own wisdom and truth, can we ever hope to heal others or our beautiful planet home. As I reconnect to myself, so I reconnect to everything, to Love. Moving Soma is the key to the unlocking the door to another reality, what a gift.
