Practical Anatomy Classes

For people who wish to better understand how their body moves

Meran Cassidy has also been practicing yoga, dance and meditation for over 25 years.  She has been working in the field of health and movement for 8 years.  Treating people with significant musculoskeletal imbalances and trauma through to people who just want to experience a better kind of feeling good

As part of her training Meran has learnt a detailed and hands on approach to Anatomy and Physiology.  Helping people to understand which structures are involved in movement, where they are located, and how to feel them in their own bodies.

Many of the clients she sees are Yoga Teachers, Dancers and other physical practitioners who use and move their bodies as a part of their living. Her experience has been that they know the kind of stretches and movements that benefit their bodies but not so much why.  When given a taste of Meran’s wealth of knowledge they begin to experience Anatomy in a new way.  They develop a thirst for more, a thirst which can’t be filled by looking at the dry content of an Anatomy text book with complicated names and little relationship to their lived experience of the body. 

So Meran has developed this Practical Anatomy class. Where you can expand your Anatomy and Physiology knowledge in a way that supports your body.  You will feel, locate and experience your body and better understand the reasons why your body works the way it does.

Magic Yoga Mat’s First Book! Like new parents, a little trepidatious and yet bursting with insurmountable pride, Bonnie and I have spent the last months imagining, playing, writing and illustrating a series of Children’s Yoga Stories inspired by the born yogi’s that come along to our classes each week. In celebration of this, Magic Yoga Mat’s first ever book launch, (our shameless plug) available now from our web site www.magicyogamat.com/YogaEbooks , we are running a colouring competition.

Yoga for children should be fun!
Not only is Yoga for kids fun, it works on the body, is good for health, helps children sleep better, build a better body awareness and image ands builds co-ordination and confidence.
Yoga also helps to improve the mind by working on focus and concentration, helping to manage stress and giving children tools to improve better learning in classrooms.

Embodying Rolfing 

Rolfing structural integration has an unequalled and unprecedented ability to dramatically alter a person’s posture and structure.  Rolfing is for you if… you are experiencing chronic pain and stiffness, recovering from trauma or postural imbalance. You have tried every other modality and nothing seemed to work. You are ready to embark on a treatment program that will enable long-term change in the way you feel and move. Rolfing is delivered in a series of 8-12 sessions spaced one or two weeks apart. This treatment program fascilitates not only a decrease in pain and stiffness but also improved body awareness, graceful movement and a generally happier body. More info on Rolfing.

Manual Therapy is for you if… have acute neck, shoulder or back pain. You need some attention to your body after a too much time at the computer, in the garden, after a sporting activity or a long plane flight. You want to feel looser and deeply relaxed. Manual Therapy is like massage but more effective because it treats more than just the muscles. Joint position, postural alignment and appropriate muscular tone are all considered in Manual Therapy sessions.

Movement Therapy is for you if… you want to learn about how your body moves and how to look after it. Together we will develop a series of exercises for you to do at home or work that is individually tailored to suit your needs. Discover how movement can be effortless and fun. Improve your coordination, muscular control and core strength.
