Somatic Movement Practice

09/03/2026

🌟 A few spaces remain for this upcoming Somatic Movement Exploration of Body & Mind🌟

Hi, I’m Sandra — a trainee psychoanalytic psychotherapist with over twenty years of experience teaching and studying yoga and somatic movement.

Beginning March 29, I’ll be offering a series of six monthly Sunday immersions exploring the relationship between body and mind @ Fours Swans Therapy and Wellness.

The work draws on the Body–Mind Centering® lineage, somatic movement, yoga, and psychoanalytic curiosity.

This first immersion, The White, Silent Forest, explores the skeletal body as living support — and how, when support becomes available, sensation, feelings, and thought can begin to come into relationship.

No prior yoga or somatic experience is needed.
Just a playful curiosity.

⭐ Sunday March 29 · 10.30–12.30
⭐ FourSwans, Duleek
⭐ €45

A small group is already gathering and a few spaces remain.

Sharing something that’s been quietly taking shape…

Re-emergence

It has been a while.

Before COVID, I taught yoga and somatic movement.
Then life interrupted.
I turned towards study, towards psychology, towards psychoanalytic psychotherapy. I kept learning, thinking, feeling, questioning. I stayed close to the body, even when I wasn’t teaching it.

Now I feel the pull to bring these strands back together.

As a somatic movement educator, yoga teacher, and trainee psychoanalytic psychotherapist, my work has always been rooted in one question:

How do we live in our bodies, in relationship to ourselves and others, with more honesty and care?

Somatic work, for me, is not about fixing, stretching, or perfecting the body.
It is about listening. Witnessing. Being with what is.

“Somatic” speaks to the living body — the biological, psychological, and social self, inseparable and constantly in dialogue. In movement, stillness, and shared space, we begin to notice how we carry our histories, expectations, and relationships within us.

I am interested in how we become who we are through relationship — how we show up differently in different spaces, how our bodies remember, adapt, protect, and reveal.

These practices are not about self-improvement or body beautification. They are about awareness, tolerance of self, and gently expanding what feels possible.

Over the coming weeks, I’ll be sharing reflections and details about a new series of workshops weaving together somatic movement, psychoanalytic thinking, and embodied inquiry.

My first workshop will take place in March.
If this speaks to you, stay close.

More soon.
Sandra 🤍

"Because of the dog’s joyfulness, our own is increased. It is no small gift. It is not the least reason why we should honor as well as love the dog of our own life, and the dog down the street, and all the dogs not yet born. What would the world be like without music or rivers or the green and tender grass? What would this world be like without dogs?" Mary Oliver

Over the Christmas season when it all gets too much, your attention is divided and you feel like you are going crazy; stop what you are doing focus your attention on your breath. Take 10 mindful breaths, and then step back on the treadmill of life. Repeat often!!
