This Week In Class - Stronger Arms


Hi Reader

Despite the breezy weather on Saturday, I had a wonderful day teaching my retreat day at Aubourn Hall, sharing the day with such a lovely group, thank you for choosing to share your day with me 🙏🏻.

The day included a fabulous garden tour, the perfect combination of nurturing movement to come home to ourselves and the healing qualities of being in nature.

This week in my Somatics classes we move onto more weight bearing through the arms, we’re getting closer to being on hands and knees and crawling. This may seem like a basic movement but being able to do this with knees off the floor is where we’re headed and it takes strength, ease and coordination.

Last week’s classes are now in the library and I’ve split the class into two halves in the “Short & Sweet” library and it’s in full in the “Zoom” library. If you want a challenge and want to feel stronger, begin with the rhythmic and developmental movements and practice daily, try doing them daily and see how you feel! All the details are below.

Classes resume at Central Wellness this Friday for both the 9:30 am Pause and Nourish class and Somatics at 11:00 am. Drop in option available for both classes.

Coming up on the 11th July I have an intro workshop at Central Wellness, “Back Care Basics” which includes upper and lower back, neck and shoulders, so if you’ve been telling friends and family about trying Somatics, this is a great workshop to try.

Have a wonderful week, from my heart, soul and soma to yours.

Liz 🧡🙏🏻

Reconnection Retreat 2027

Following two successful retreats in 2025 & 2026 I am returning to the amazing Noka, Curlew and Avocet lodges in January 2027. These are the perfect venues that offer stunning accommodation and facilities in the lovely town of Woodhall Spa just 15 miles south east of Lincoln but a world away from your life.

The intention for my retreats is to create a supportive space for women to find time to nourish, nurture, heal, express, rest and reconnect. I am always humbled, grateful and in awe of everyone who joins me for embracing both the weekend and more importantly, themselves and each other.

Hi Reader Firstly, I want to thank everyone who came on Saturday to my Back Care Basics class, it was lovely to see some new and familiar faces and those that had travelled from afar 🧡🙏🏻 it was wonderful to take a deep dive into gently restoring moving for the back. Yesterday, I had the opportunity to take a reformer class. A really kind gesture from the owners of Central Wellness as a thank you to the teachers. I thought the timing for me was interesting, seeing as last week I’d finished...

Hi Reader As I walked to the post box this morning there was something that felt really strange, barely any traffic, or children walking to school, it felt like a Sunday, without the Sunday feel. It was a tumbleweed moment, where was everyone, had I woken in another dimension? Then my friend told me the game she was watching was really gripping, game? waited a moment then the penny dropped! I had no idea the re-run of the England v Mexico match was on. I'll admit, football isn't really my...

Hi Reader This week I finally made time to listen to this brilliant podcast with Dr Chatterjee and Dr Howard Schubiner, several of my students, friends and colleagues had already mentioned it to me (yesterday it was Test Match Special, so this morning it was this! 😄). It's not just interesting, it's important and it had me nodding along as someone who has spent years working in the very same territory, just through the different door of movement. Dr Schubiner talks about the difference...
