Somatic Movement Classes

for Teens

Reduce stress | Relax mind | Process emotions | Regain balance

Starting June 2025, Constantia, Cape Town

All classes include guided meditation, somatic movement practices and or Innerdance therapy.

There is something about Music that can shift one’s entire perspective and mood.

Sound impacts every facet of our being. It touches us physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. It can be a meditative tool and a source of pure joy.
Just like adults, teenagers and children respond very well to music. How it can support them is entirely dependant on what one is tuned into.
  • Does it make me feel good?
  • Does it energise me?
  • Does it relax me?
  • Does it inspire me?
If you are a parent with a teenager who resonates and loves their music – you might like to learn more about these new classes I am starting next month.

More information

Somatic movement means moving with full-body awareness, focusing more on how one is feeling in each moment and being present with oneself through the movement of the body. This is not a dance class with “steps”.

We will be using somatic movement as mainly an outward expression to actively express and expand energy. There is a potential to transform energy with intention here through our conscious movement.

We will use Innerdance as an inward, receiving experience. You don’t actively do anything. We essentially allow the sounds to inwardly affect us. No output. An allowing and almost spontaneous surrendering.

Each class will have a theme. Some classes will invite more free movement and outer expression while others will be more internally focused where participants will get to lie down on a yoga matt and receive sound healing. Some classes will offer a combination.

My intention behind these classes is to offer a space for teenagers to still their minds with no distractions. They don’t need to speak if they don’t want to. If many are moving but someone wants to lie down, they can. It’s essentially a safe space to be themselves, express how they feel, unwind, self-regulate, distress, process emotions, access more joy, find inner balance and reset their nervous system.
