Natural movement coaching online | Live classes, replays & mini movement videos | Mobility & Strength

A person's ability to move well is the sum of the quality of their entire day's movements, every day - not just in 'exercise' sessions. Natural movement helps you become aware of the quality of your movements all the time. Classes teach you good technique in everything from sitting on and getting up and down from the floor, stepping up and over, lifting correctly and other daily movements. They also introduce other skills you are less likely to practice during your normal day, that reinforce healthy movement patterns like squatting, crawling and balancing and up to jumping & hanging. The benefits are helping protect against injury, strengthening the body in good alignment and healthy movement patterns. It also increases and maintains good mobility which gives you the confidence to move more throughout your day, whatever your age and for the rest of your life - we all want that, don't we?!

This is the hidden truth about balance training!

It isn’t just a timed test - it’s a skill that improves when you move more, not less. Especially when you move in varied, practical, real-life ways.

The more ways you move, the more confident your body becomes at responding to the world around you, whether that’s on uneven ground, in unpredictable situations, or just getting up and down from the floor with ease.

…because when you do, things start to shift.

Not just in your joints
but in your confidence, your energy, your outlook.

Movement doesn’t have to be big or perfect.

It just needs to be yours again.

That’s what I help people find: one small move at a time.

It’s not rocket science (thankfully!) - but it does take a little creativity.

Every time I unpack my groceries, I use it as a chance to practise one of the most foundational movement skills: lowering all the way to the ground (and getting back up) in different ways.

With each trip to the bags (and let’s be honest, there are usually plenty), I intentionally change the shapes I make with my lower body.

This builds strength, resilience, mobility, and real-life capability - one movement at a time.

Want to learn more about movement stacking?�
📩 Comment SUBSTACK below to get this week’s Wendy’s Wanderings post.

In my coaching, I teach a whole range of ground-to-standing shapes so you can learn to mix it up with confidence in daily life. Send me a DM to talk about the ways I can help you.

“If you don’t think you have time to get strong, flexible and balanced you haven’t done this!” - Lynda’s words

Lynda asked me to share her story and I was so pleased to, because sometimes you need to hear it from someone else.

What’s interesting to me, is that Lynda was already very active, so for her it wasn’t about moving more, it was about embracing the importance of moving ‘differently’.

We never know what’s around the corner and I’m just so pleased for her that she had already built a more resilient body - and when we rebuild those foundations, they serve us in so many ways.

If, like so many, you’re struggling to get started? Unsure how to fit it in? Or wondering if it’s too late for your body, then I’m here to help you.

If you don’t already (and thank you so much if you do and especially if you have been for a while 💜) - follow me for regular tips of how to make small, sustainable changes that can have a big impact on your movement in everyday life.

And for even more tips, make sure you’re on the list for my weekly newsletter (‘Everyday Moves’) for tips, encouragement and to get advance notice of some exciting ways I can help coming up later this year (by commenting 👇NEWS in the comments below).

I absolutely love to hear how everyday movement has changed your life for the better and messages like these make me (cry! &) make me more passionate (if that’s possible) about getting the message out about the importance of how we move in everyday life.

Thank you .dill for sharing your story and I can’t wait to hear about life after recovery - you’ve got this!

Sometimes we just need to spread some love on here, when there’s so much happening in the world that’s doing the opposite.

If you’re lucky enough to have someone like this in your life, send this to them to let them know how grateful you are for what they do for you…

and to get that festive walk in the diary that you know will do you both SO MUCH GOOD!

Wishing you a wonderful festive break whatever you’re doing & see you on the other side!

Follow .movement for the positives of moving more naturally - and especially sharing the love of moving more together 💜

“4 years ago, I never thought about doing these things.” Marie sent me these photos from her morning run, referring to the time before she started moving in my classes.

Before class yesterday she said, “You’re with me all the time!”

I take that as a compliment (especially given that she’s still moving with me!), because my overarching aim is to help people move differently throughout their whole days, not just in classes.

That’s why I post ideas & encouragement on here, why I record podcasts with inspiring & informative people & why I coach a wide variety of natural movements to be used outside, inside and everywhere you spot an opportunity.

My personal ‘why’ is because I never want anyone to go through the pain I had, if it’s at all possible to avoid. Having recently had Covid & having felt very low & been physically exhausted, it reminded me of some dark days I went through, when trying to stay positive felt an impossibility.

If I’m able to help inspire you to think differently about how you move during the day, whether through free resources or membership, then I will keep going, for you & for me!

I also got a lovely message from my sister-in-law this week that said, “My mum’s been going down the stairs on her bum, and she tells me it’s all your fault 🤣🤣 she saw a video of yours xx”

Messages like that give me the biggest smile!

We all need accountability, so showing up for the classes ensures some beneficial natural movement training in the week, but you also makes you think about how you move differently, helping you have a wider variety of movements to choose from in daily life.

Join me in Wednesday classes online & immediately afterwards by replay:
‘Practical Movement Skills’ 09:15-10:00 GMT
‘Midweek Movement’ 13:00-13:30

Christmas term classes start again on Weds 6th November for 5 weeks (6 terms per year)
All classes are accessed through the Reclaim Movement monthly membership (with 150+ classes available & 100+ mini movement breaks).

I’d love to see you in there!

This really gets my 🐐(goat)!

To move our bodies, even in the simplest of ways, requires the co-ordinated movement of multiple parts and systems.

We also use movements in many different ways; in different environments & with different challenges & loads.

EG…. take the movement of the ankle.

It involves movement of structures in the foot & lower leg, but it can also involve the knee & further up the chain. The ankle is used differently during balancing, kneeling, walking, running, jumping etc.

So it would be amazing if 1 specific exercise could completely ‘fix’ pain.

Wouldn’t that be great?!

These promises are aimed at the vulnerability of those in pain, & having been there myself, having felt pretty desperate on many occasions, I can see why they gain traction.

Every person’s pain is so individual & there’s never a one size fits all solution. Yes, we do need to ‘fix’ ourselves at the end of the day, but we can rarely do that without the relevant therapist looking at your whole ‘picture’.

It’s not possible to ‘fix’ everything sadly, for example for those with lifelong conditions, particularly auto-immune, but I believe that focusing on healthy, gentle movement at your personal level is always better than no movement. Meet yourself where you’re at with kindness.

Be wary of promised quick fixes or hacks, they are rarely a long-term solution!

I hope this resonates with those who need to hear it. You are not alone and embracing a movement rich life can help create wonderful change. Sending you 💜
