Amerta Movement is a free-form movement practice developed by Suprapto Suryodarmo (pictured).

It is difficult to describe in English, as its very nature is "to open the point rather than fix the point." To experience life through movement rather than fixity.

The quotation below from the book Embodied Lives sums it up well.

As Bloom, Galanter, and Reeve (2014)

describe:

"Amerta Movement may be seen as cultivating an embodied approach to life through the practice of movement as a skilled art. It seems to reach beyond 'movement meditation' or 'dance' into a movement world that is uniquely sensitising and integrative.

Amerta Movement differs from most other traditional movement arts, like Tai Chi or Yoga, or somatic practices like the Feldenkrais Method or Alexander Technique, because Amerta has no set form, no pre-existing patterns or series of movements.

There is nothing to follow except one's own experience on all levels, but especially sensory-motoric -our bodies, on the Earth, and responsive to gravity."
If you feel drawn to this work, Claire Osborne and I are hosting an in person workshop in May in Cork.See the link in the bio or DM for details.

Allowing ourselves to soften is sometimes the only way forward ✨️

Restriction or holding stops the natural flow of movement and the body's ability to regulate. What we do in our minds is reflected in our body and vice versa. It may feel vulnerable at first, but it can also be a source of dynamic strength and resiliency.

Explore this concept and more at my somatic movement workshops . The next workshop is this Saturday at 11.30 .

Come home to the body .....
Staying grounded and connected to ourselves has never been more important. Our lives are busier than ever and it can be a challenge to create the space for slowing down and just being.

resource us with the tools to stay connected to ourselves, nourishing body, mind, and soul.
During a session, I often find energy that was buried beneath all the busyness and noise of day to day life and relationships. The body just needed to fall back into its own rhythm.

If you feel drawn to trying this work , giving yourself this space and time , then I am now available for online one-to-ones and also have some in person workshops . 20%Discounts available on March and April workshops by signing up to my mailing list. Info is the links or DM if you prefer
