SOMA Circle

Experience & learn somatic tools of embodiment in our monthly SOMA Circle for women.

Soma is a Greek word meaning body and is the root word for Somatics; a field within bodywork and movement studies concerning internal physical perception and experience.  At SOMA, we focus on the internal bodily experience with emphasis on learning from and through the body. Our belief is that we are spiritual beings having a somatic experience. We harmonize Body, Mind, & Spirit through embodied and authentic feeling states to instill love, acceptance and pleasure at the core. 

SOMA Circles are a hybrid women's circle, meaning the circles have the elements of sisterhood, community and heart-centered sharing and include a focus on somatics.

SOMA Circle in-person gathering will be an opportunity for you to come into deeper connection with yourself, your emotional body and in relating with other women.  Each circle there will be one or multiple somatic (body-based) exercises like conscious movement, breath practices and/or sound play that assist and guide you in various ways, like regulating your nervous system, toning the vagus nerve, becoming connected, present and aware of your lived body and experience and more.  There will be invitational opportunities to connect with the other women one to one and with the whole circle at the gathering.  We will be sharing from the voice of the body.  

Allowing the body to have a chance to sit in the drivers seat of your life builds trust, confidence and emotional fluency, effecting your choices, decision making process, confidence, relations, and so much more will ripple out. 

If you are curious about somatics & embodiment, your nervous system, feeling harmonized and awakened, meeting other like-minded women, or my work in general, attending a SOMA Circle is a spring board into living a more authenticly, expressed YOU!
