Somatic Breathing Courses
Explore breathing through sensation, movement and awareness, opening up new ways to breathe, move and feel.
What is Somatic Breathing?
Somatic Breathing is an invitation to become curious about your breath, rather than trying to control or perfect it.
Simply bringing more awareness to breathing can begin to change how we experience it. As you begin to notice where your breath moves in your body, what is involved and how it responds to movement, position and attention, breathing itself can begin to change. There is no need to force it or decide how it should be.
Through sensation, awareness and gentle movement, we can explore breathing as a whole-body experience: the movement of your ribs, diaphragm and pelvic floor, the changing spaces within your body, and the natural rhythms of your own breathing.
There is no right way to breathe and no particular state we are trying to achieve. Instead, we create space to notice what is already happening and allow different ways of breathing, moving and being to emerge.
