KellyMcShaneSomaticPractices

Hi, my name is Kelly.

I'm a movement coach.

I support and encourage you to find your own body's knowing through self awareness and intuitive movement.

We explore how you want to feel as you move through the world.

We find ways of moving mindfully that that are within your capacity, so you feel energized and accomplished, not depleted.

We invite a relationship with yourself that centers context, choice, and connection.

I help you feel better, move better, and develop a deep regard for the experiences of your body.

Body Trust

We notice our body's experience and make adjustments for our needs, increasing awareness and connection to the present moment.

Mindful Movement

Choice-based movement practices and training to support you in your movement goals focusing on agency: learn the how and why.
