Patricia Hopper

As a massage therapist and movement coach, Patricia Hopper believes everyone has the capacity to rediscover full-body balance, stability, and coordination. Patricia's specialty is a gentle approach that helps people cultivate body awareness and practice safe full-body movement. Patricia has been teaching somatic movement since 2019 when she completed Essential Somatics' 200-hour somatic movement teacher training program. Somatic movement in the tradition of Thomas Hanna is an important part of her own wellness and fitness routine for resolving discomfort in her body by learning to sense and release tension. She practices Bowenwork and movement coaching at Be Fluid Bodywork, a private practice in Seattle's Roosevelt neighborhood.
