Welcome to Move into Life

Move into Life teaches you the art of being in movement. 

There is so much to be learnt through moving – and it is so much a part of our lives that we can often disregard it. Our movement has a whole rich vocabulary that we scarcely notice: 
  • the rhythms and patterns of our walking
  • the way we stand and sit
  • how we move our hands as we talk
  • how our movement changes in different places and situations (when we're alone or in company, for example).


I can explore my body in motion: 
  • how the structure of my body negotiates the environment 
  • the senses, alive in each movement, informing my perceptual life 
  • the many variations in movement, as I begin to understand flow and weight and move through space and time.
  • how to ‘follow my line’ in movement, that is to say a sequence of physical sensations in my body.

I can learn:
  • how my embodied perception can surf the wave between my inner life and the outer environment, alive to myself, alive to the environment and alive to others.
  • about my movement patterns in communication with others.  
  • how to play with change, and study the response when I put a different quality of movement in the space. 
  • to reconnect with the movements all around me in nature by realising that my movement sequences are part of the symphony, and not separate from it. 
  • to listen through the body, to gently rekindle the instinctive, kinaesthetic sense.

I can be constantly amazed by how precisely the body reveals me to myself and I can delight in finding my own way of moving through all these different modes. 

Moving touches the feeling sense of my embodied selves-in-motion in the environment. It is simultaneously a way of cultivating awareness, a direct expression of how I am in that moment and an art form. It's creative, versatile, fun, unique to each person, revelatory and transformative.

Move into Life is a foundation programme for embodiment. From it you can choose just an introduction to the Body in Movement (the first workshop of the year), or attend several workshops to get a stimulating personal practice for the whole year and a thorough understanding of movement as ‘the skill of skills’.

My life’s work has been to learn about, study and explore the way we move in daily life and, in parallel, to engage with movement as an art form.

I have studied with movement (notably Amerta Movement for over 24 years, with Suprapto Suryodarmo - Prapto), explored movement as a form of meditation, worked as a movement psychotherapist, completed a PhD on ecological movement and I have created an annual programme of movement workshops and courses that I call Move into Life®. The next cycle of workshops will begin in May 2014.
