TOWARDS YOUR MOVEMENT POTENTIAL & ENJOYMENT

I offer private and small group movement sessions in York to suit all ages and levels. We can start where you are at.

Regain confidence after illness or injury; improve co-ordination and agility for leisure or sports; or build resilience for vibrant ageing & future adventures.

WHAT WE DO

Restore all-round natural movement with scalable practices, drawn from a number of disciplines, including:

Warm ups
Balance training & games (from The Foot Collective)
Mobility work
Basic bodyweight moves for strength
Agility drills
Foot-focused practices
Body/mind awareness training (based on Feldenkrais).

WAYS TO WORK WITH ME

- One-to-one coaching, with take-home practice programme & optional self-assessments to guide your progress
- Monthly York workshops, small groups for personal attention

BENEFITS OF APPROACH

Smooth Moves Lab

“Smooth Moves Lab is me - Julie. We are all the experts in our own laboratory (ourselves) & with guidance can find our own unique path through curiosity, trial and error – like a scientist does in a lab. Smooth, fluid movements are what I strive for as a marker of ease, quality and efficiency.”
