Welcome to the Eastward Moving Somatics online studio!
I am happy you are here. I invite you to join me in this community setting to tune in to your own embodied powers! This studio was created in 2021 with love for all my amazing students past and present. I hope that these offerings inspire and enable you to find the strength, grounding, and ease you need to keep moving. Slow down. Listen to your body. Take great care. Stay curious!
In welcoming you, I also want you to know I am here to support you. I know that the online interface sometimes creates a strange sense of disconnection. It is important for you to know that I am here! I am also learning how to be online in this way and I hope to share the space with you! Please book in for a free 20 minute consultation/check in when needed!
All the best in dancing, moving, and thinking together,
Sally
Eastward Moving Somatics offers a variety of functional, therapeutic, restorative, and somatic, live streamed movement education classes, pre-recorded movement offerings of varying lengths (5-120 mins), workshops, and live/online individual and small group sessions. Eastward Moving Somatics is created by movement educator and interdisciplinary dance/performance artist Sally Morgan. That’s me!
More about me:
I am a movement educator, dance artist, and certified Pilates and Yoga instructor with 30 years of teaching experience. My practice and teaching are inspired and influenced by my professional background in contemporary/modern/post-modern dance, contact improvisation, and multiple somatic movement modalities. Extensive studies in restorative practices, embodied/experiential anatomy, developmental movement, mindfulness, Authentic Movement, Body-Mind Centering, and embodied Environmental Education round out my teaching practice and pedagogy.
My teaching emphasizes an experiential ’work in progress’ somatic approach to the body, using the ‘body as manual’. I teach and guide from my heart, highlighting grounding, listening, safety, care, and quality over quantity.
