What is HANDS ON about?

In keeping with the integrative and interdisciplinary approach of the Somatic Academy, in this training we give a focus to various individual somatic treatment approaches.

Often Somatic Methods impart their knowledge in the context of movement and sensory education classes or group instruction. In doing so, some methods have also developed a large treatment vocabulary for one-on-one sessions.

Each module and the method(s) it contains has its own focus. Direct, sensing and 'listening' touch play a central role. The numerous, concrete skills and techniques that are taught meet the conscious participation of the recipient. The experience of being touched and being treated thus intertwine in individual somatic work. They are interdependent and thus become more deeply effective for the person being treated - as well as a source for personal learning and change through the felt body.

Methods

1. Rolfing®
2. Funktional Integration - Feldenkrais
3. Body Mind Centering®
4. Elements of Embryology
5. Elements of Cranio Sacral Therapy
6. Elements of Laban/Bartenieff
7. Breath Dialogue - Middendorf
8. NeuroAffective Touch
9. Sensory Experiencing
