Today's workshop, we were investigating, what happens after standerd assessment procedures.
Following fascial function, exploring the biotensegral body.

This workshop was aimed towards the experienced body work therapists who want to deepen knowledge and understanding.

It was a joy to lead, with lots of reflective practice, questions, thoughts shared......as well of lots of laughs and a true sense of community.

I would like to thank those of you who sent such lovely message after Eddie dog passing,they really did help 💜

Today, my self and Evie dog had the morning . My first visit was in the summer of 1962, sat on my Dads shoulder, visiting as the Abbey began to light up 🌟 its a magical memory.
For me its a place that always sooths my soul. Whatever the weather🌨

Sadly on Saturday we had to say goodbye to Mr Eddie dog.
Its been a real joy the 12 and a bit years.
He was such a playful delight, greeted folks coming to the practice with a gentle hello, and a wagging tail.

He will be missed, it was just his time, in true Eddie fashion, he kinda told me, 'it's time Sue'
The heartbreak we feel is worth all our amazing times and adventures.

Its a new year !
I wanted to start to year, with a updated treatment room.

With a feeling of more space, for my Pilates practice, space for some strength work.

With a chair for reading, thinking, reflecting.

As a side note, the folks have been so helpful when I made a mistake 🙈 ordering too tall shelves......their future so easy to put together and super quality 👍😀

13 years ago I found pilates, , it changed my world. I wanted to stand and feel well.

2016, Claire suggested I became a Mat Pilates teacher to support my work as a physiotherapist.

Okay it took till 2018, to get my body movement in a good place to take the exam 😅

My classes began in 2017, I absolutely love teaching pilates, watching people's journeys, getting to know their bodies, growing stronger, taller and confident.

Last night was our Christmas 🎄 social, full of good chats, laughter, we feel like a lovely community.

I feel very grateful and joyful 🙏

This weekend, we were celebrating twenty years of Flexible-Healing workshops 🌟

It's been quite a journey from teaching Muscle Engery technique, Positional Release. To begin training with Tom Hendrickson to becoming one of Tom's teachers. Then, passing on his Hendrickson Method.

My teaching years have been made special by the therapists who have attended, the friendships that have been formed. The thought-provoking moments, lots of laughs, and shared learning.
It has felt like such a privilege.

Some of us shared a celebration 🍾 meal , with wonderful food, a warm, friendly service.

So here's to a few more years 🥂

Strasbourg, you were so interesting !! and beautiful, thought-provoking, it may have been rather wet !!.....may have had to purchase warmer clothes 🙈.
A city that has swapped between being French and then German and back again throws up thoughts of where you find your identity, had some interesting little chats 🙂💕 rather wonderful art galleries.
