Yoga and Somatic Movement pioneer Tanya Fitzpatrick is returning to Sydney to offer the first training in this method in July. We asked her to tell us more about what to expect from her training and this method which she has shared around the globe.
“One question I get asked all the time is “How is this method so effective at eliminating muscular pain?“

Through specific movements you learn how to sense where you are holding tension. This habituated state of forgetfulness whereby we forget how to relax our muscles is called sensory motor amnesia.”
Pain management without pills
Actively lengthening and releasing muscles from a constant state of contraction sends the message to the brain that it’s OK to let those over- taxed muscles relax. This creates a feedback loop between body and mind that dissolves the compensatory pattern, thereby reducing pain and letting the body remember what natural alignment feels like
