Somatic Movement Educator

The Somatic Movement Educator (SME) programme runs over 2 years. See Courses for a breakdown of the units.

Through the study of individual body systems and the developmental movement process, participants learn the fundamental layering and interweaving of principles that establish the richness of embodiment practices; we touch and are touched in partnering hands-on techniques; we use sound, vibration, verbal dialogue and more to access the body's wisdom.

The SME material has immediate applications to movement based disciplines - such as dance, yoga, sports, martial arts - and to other therapeutic modalities such as physiotherapy, occupational therapy, psychotherapy, bodywork and massage. This 500+ hour program requires two years of study. Graduates are qualified to use the work in educational context.
