Unravelling the myth of the ‘perfect’ posture. 

This physiotherapist-led movement class is designed for people who have to sit more than they would like. Through movement practices we develop our awareness of posture, and the way we hold our body in space. We balance out the effects of modern working life and time spent at a desk. 

Although improved alignment and ‘better posture’ helps to put our body under less strain, any part of our body being held static for a long time will tire. The perfect posture is one which can and does change. Regular movement is key!

This class incorporates elements of clinical pilates and Scaravelli-inspired yoga. It differs from traditional matwork with it’s specific focus on posture, interweaving ideas from anatomy, neuroscience and human evolution. It aims to help you to understand more about yourself. We open by mobilising the body along with the mind, preparing to strengthen, load and explore postural awareness. We introduce the idea of movement snacks; short practices for you to take home with you, to welcome more movement into your day, and close by re-centring and calming the nervous system.
