Non Linear Movement Method (NLMM) is an inquiry based somatic movement practice. This absolutely non-force method of “moving what you are feeling” sensitizes the practitioner to their inner landscape. The practice is done to music, mostly on the hands and knees. This position allows people to feel safe, grounded and free to move the areas that commonly hold tension. Very little instruction is given allowing the body to unfold and discover what is needed. This provides the opportunity to regain natural bodily intelligence, release tension, soothe the nervous system and open the way to more pleasure and aliveness. NLMM has been used successfully as a trauma release therapy by gently opening the freeze pattern which allows for release to happen.

NLMM is facilitated on a mat or blanket. Participants dress similar to a Yoga or Dance Class, in comfortable, non-restrictive clothing.

The method can be practiced at any age, fitness level and mobility. The movements are designed to be self regulating and can be done in any position, including laying down.
