Continuing Essential Somatics
In this class, we will use the skills learned in Introduction to Essential Somatics to go deeper into movements that restore balance and relieve muscle tension and chronic pain.

Exercises are performed on the floor using a yoga mat. We provide mats, but you’re welcome to bring your own if preferred. The Introduction to Essential Somatics class is the required prerequisite.
