What is movement?
Movement is a practice of noticing rather than performing—an exploration of the subtle language of your body. It is an act of self-advocacy, a way to reclaim agency, and a gentle reminder that you already belong to yourself.
What does movement make possible?
Movement creates room for choice, where you can explore not just how you move, but how you experience yourself.
Through embodied movement, you may become curious of the stories you tell yourself and the experiences you encounter. You develop self-awareness, and through giving yourself the permission to explore and experiment, you begin to develop an ever-growing toolkit for witnessing your mind-body connection.
Movement offers pathways to play and experiment with the ‘boundaries’ life imposes upon our bodies. It invites periods of integration, where you meet your needs, expectations and emotions.
What makes movement accessible?
Within this approach to movement, there is no right or wrong. However you show up, whatever you are experiencing or feeling – you are valid.
Your right to be is never questioned.
We are all human beings – bodies made of bones, muscles, blood, cells. Our entire experience is shared. Perhaps our lived-reality differs, yet our shared essence of humanness exists.
What is at the core of Connie Moves?
Guided by the belief that movement is more than a physical state of ‘doing’, rather an integration of our physical, psychological, emotional and spiritual layers of being – to ‘move’ becomes an expression of our inherent humanness.
As such, our approach is grounded in trauma-informed, somatic and embodiment principles, creating spaces where you are met with authenticity, given choice, and enabled to meet all that you feel, sense and believe.
Movement is an expression of our right to be and to hold space as ourselves on earth.
Movement is more than ‘doing’, movement is a way of being.
