Gentle Movements with Moniek

After this long hot summer I am very much looking forward to starting the Gentle Movements group sessions again.

The Tuesday sessions, 1.30 - 2.30pm, are face-to-face and take place at the beautiful, light and warm room at the Friends Meeting House, 91-93 Hartington Grove, Cambridge CB1 7UB. The Thursday sessions, 11.30am - 12.30pm, are online. Please get in touch to get the zoom link.

The group sessions cost £42 per half term (6 sessions), £10 per drop-in session and £5 for low income earners.

You are very welcome to join and people who are new to my sessions can do a free trial session!

I have a new event coming up on Saturday 10 September. I will be joined by two other wonderful practitioners, Carole and Maggie, who dedicate their time to coaching and teaching qigong. You can read more about them in the event link.

We felt compelled to organise this face-to-face event after two and a half years of living with Covid as many people have felt a sense of disconnect. Our approach on the day will be experiential and we will offer different ways to recreate a sense of connection with our bodies, others and nature.

If it's for you, please do book quickly as there are only six spaces! If you like, invite a friend to come along as there is a discount if you book for two.

Here is the link for more information and to register: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/bringing-back-a-sense-of-connection-to-ourself-others-our-surroundings-tickets-336520561057

Let me know if you'd like to find out more about it before going ahead. It would be lovely to see you there!

Just a gentle reminder that the face-to-face Gentle Movements sessions will start again. The first session will be on 26 April and will be free of charge for everyone! The sessions will take place at St John the Evangelist Church, Hills Road, Cambridge CB2 8RN on Tuesdays 12 - 1pm.

Someone who joined my sessions for the first time yesterday said: "It is so gentle, but also profoundly relaxing. My body feels so much more relaxed and softer, and my posture is better without having to try to force my body to correct it. Amazing!"

There will be another Saturday session on 9 January, 11.30am - 12.30pm. The weekly classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 11.30am - 12.30pm, are starting again next week as well. All my Gentle Movements sessions are online at the moment. Let me know if you would like to take part!

Here is a taster video as a little Christmas present. This short Gentle Movements session focuses on your shoulders. I have used lockdown to try out a new venture, feedback would be very much appreciated. Merry Christmas!

If you are interested in the weekly sessions or one to one sessions, please contact me. The sessions are donation based. Please pay what you can afford/think the sessions are worth. If you can’t afford much at the moment, you would still be very welcome to join the sessions.

Some feedback I received after the Gentle Movements session yesterday: "I enjoyed it so much and feel it was like having a delicious ‘movement bath’. My nervous system feels so soothed and calmed! I thought it was great and am looking forward to the next session."

I will continue to run weekly online Gentle Movements sessions on Tuesdays 1.30-2.30pm and on Thursdays 11.30am-12.30pm and also offer online one to one sessions. The sessions are donation based. Please contact me if you are interested, I will then send you the Zoom link you need.

I now offer live online Gentle Movements sessions, using Zoom. Please contact me if you are interested in these sessions and I will send you more information.

All my Gentle Movements sessions are cancelled until further notice. Stay well!

Feedback I received after the Gentle Movements session yesterday: 'This was so good for my spine', 'Subtle, but very effective', 'You have worked your magic again'
Many thanks to those who came to this session or to other sessions this year. It has been a wonderful pleasure to work with you!

The last weekly Gentle Movements sessions of this term will be on 3 and 5 December. After the Christmas break the sessions will start again on 7 and 9 January and run until 31 March and 2 April (with a half term break on 18 and 20 February). Do get in touch if you are interested!

Today I did a Gentle Movements session at Arthur Rank with the Day Therapy patients. Some comments: 'I have never done anything like this before, but really enjoyed it', 'Invigorating, better than relaxation'.
It is a beautiful place to be with lovely people and I hope to do sessions there regularly.
