Our Values
"Be persistent, patient, and positive. Somatic Exercises change your body by teaching your brain. Your learning grows steadily and solidly. You must be persistent—determined in your practiice of these movement patterns. You must be patient—looking not for a 'quick fix' on your body, but a genuine, lasting change in your comfort, range of motion, posture, and general functioning. Most importantly, you must be positive in your expectations, envisaging and aiming for the improvement you know your somatic system is capable of."
—Thomas Hanna
