Begin Movement classes have helped me in so many ways: Stress management, sleep, pain management and overall maintenance of mobility and pain free living with a chronic back issue. They certainly have helped me through acute situations with my lower back pain, where I have been unable receive passive therapeutic care.
I commit to the movement patterns that I have learnt from the classes and within days my body restores my body where I can move freely again. An unexpected benefit is that my body has been more responsive to manual treatment having more immediate and integrative effects. The body heals itself and finds its normal through the developmental patterns of BEGIN MOVES.

I have been attending Begin Moves classes for over ten years. The movement patterns and how we practice them have assisted me in many ways over the years. Improving my body awareness, focus, postural changes that have helped my regain strength and mobility.
I sustained a neck injury years ago and Begin Moves classes has been a gentle but effective approach to reducing pain. So much of what i learnt through attending these classes has impacted my daily lifestyle and how i move through life.
Elementary Teacher
Begin Moves classes have been a mainstay of my life for more than a decade. I have benefitted in numerous ways.
Body awareness and mind body connection is key for my reasoning to attend classes regularly. Over the number of years this has translated into the ability to be able to use my breath and attention to help me understanding the importance of grounding.
I continue to improve my self awareness of my mind body and movement.

What do I need for an online Session?
Its simple, a floor space large enough you can stretch out your arms and legs with ease and your digital device for the online meeting.
Here is what we recommend: Find a quiet space. Place a mat or area rug on the floor. Place your technology device at a level that gives a bird’s eye view of you and your mat. In this way I can observe your movements and guide you in performing them correctly. Note a smooth mat or area rug is preferred (yoga mat is not ideal).
