These free introductory classes are a different topic each week and over the 6 sessions will cover the basics of alignment and skills required for the exercise and movement classes.

Previous attendees are welcome to attend again to revisit these concepts and get personalised feedback.

These 30 minute classes are part presentation and part movement class learning the fundamental exercises and concepts for my wider range of studio based and outdoor classes. No requirement to sign up for further classes. Come along and see what it is all about!

Throughout the series you will learn:
- where your skeletal alignment markers are so you can better observe how you are moving during the exercise classes.
- standing and lower body alignment points
- upper body alignment points
- bolstering techniques and concepts for adapting exercises to meet your current mobility
- the difference between exercise and movement and why this matters
- important concepts that will help you move beyond exercise and think about movement in a different way...and why you will start wanting to carry your bags and clean the floors!

Bookings preferred, drop-ins welcome

A movement multivitamin! This class will use alignment-based corrective exercises targeting the under moved and sedentary parts of our body.

No prerequisite required but attendance to the free Alignment Essentials sessions will supplement your understanding.

One hour classes $15
Drop-ins welcome

* Please check Wellness Movement's timetable to see if this class is on before you come. Due to casual weekend bookings in the studio we may have to occasionally postpone this class.

This class is literally on the move! We will be walking for a bulk of the class (because we all need to walk more!) but will stop along the way to utilise movement opportunities that the terrain offers in the moment. A portion of the class will be doing some corrective exercises as well as learning about gait mechanics and other combined natural movements.

Park benches, hills, logs, rocks, trees, beach, textures, playgrounds- each week will be different. All activities are voluntary and scalable for every body.

Prerequisite is the ability to walk 5 km ( about 1- 1/4 hours) and a sense of fun and adventure.

Depending on the time and day chosen- There is the possibility to finish with a cuppa or BYO breakfast. A great start to the day!

*Location changes each week. Book in here to find out process to confirm attendance and find out location. Carpooling options are possible if not starting at Wellness Movement.

Corrective exercise focused class utilising alignment points to bring new movement nutrition to undermoved areas of our body building flexibility and strength. Set of cards available as take home reminders of the exercises so you can continue to practice at home.
Great preparation for the tissues of the core, pelvis and lower back for general summer activities and for next season's Summer Moves series.

Prior attendance to Alignment Essentials is useful *

Bookings preferred, drop-ins welcome

*Free Alignment Essentials recap sessions at 5:30-6:00 pm before each class.

This next level class series is focused on the integrated movement mechanics involved in natural human movements with a focus on core, pelvis and lower back.

The class will be a mixture of corrective exercises covered in the previous season's groundwork sessions* as well as layering these into the particular movement focus of the evening.

If you feel uncertain whether this class is for you- please call and we can talk it through.

*This class assumes you have been introduced to the alignment reference system we use to observe movement and have had some preliminary experience in managing your alignment within exercises or daily life. Mastery is not required as these are still foundational classes but we will be practicing some key movement strategies covered in the introductory and groundwork series so we can cover more ground than teaching from scratch.

If you haven't attended any previous series or introductory classes before then attendance at a private session is necessary to catch up on the alignment essentials and the reference system we use so you can be more mindful about working within your current parameters and adjust or bolster the positions to safely improve your movement capacity.

Catch up private session could be shared with others also.

These studio based workshops will be focused on the movements of gardening and corrective exercises to help restore mobility and strength.

Lower body- the mechanics and exercises to help with lifting buckets and wheelbarrows, shoveling and digging, carrying, weeding positions, squatting preparation etc

Upper body- the mechanics of being on hands and knees, wrist flexibility and strength, lifting and pulling, reaching, tool use etc

We will discuss other hot tips for looking after your back, neck and shoulders in the garden.

*There will be an afternoon tea provided. Bring along any surplus seedlings/ opened packets of seeds/ home saved seeds if you have some to share at a seed swap during the afternoon tea time.

$50 for a 3-hour workshop, afternoon tea and handout summarising the exercises and handy tips for staying pain-free in the garden.
