learn to listen without losing yourself

and move more easily with the rhythm of life.


Somatic movement, creative enquiry and relational practice for listening differently to your body, yourself and the world around you.

Our Services

What if you could listen to more of yourself?

We spend much of our lives thinking things through, adapting, analysing and looking outside ourselves for answers about what we should do, how we should feel and who we should be.

Artful Body offers other ways of listening: through movement, sensation, breath, touch, imagination, creativity and relationship. When we slow down enough to notice what is here, we may discover something we hadn't been able to see, feel or express before. Something can shift. A new perspective can emerge. We may find more freedom to respond, rather than simply repeating familiar ways of being.

This is an invitation to explore your experience with curiosity, develop your own way of knowing, and discover what becomes possible when you listen more deeply to yourself.

Meet Nicola

I'm Nicola, an ISMETA registered somatic movement educator, therapist and facilitator.

My work brings together somatic movement, bodywork, touch, breathwork, creativity and relational practice, shaped by more than 20 years of exploring the body, movement, creativity and human experience.

I create spaces where you can slow down, become more familiar with your own experience and explore what becomes possible when you listen differently.

My approach is curious, collaborative and grounded in the belief that your experience belongs to you. My role is to offer presence, skill and space for you to discover what is there.

Learn somatic skills by living them.

Experiential learning through somatic movement, creative enquiry and relational practice.

We learn through immersion; practising, witnessing and being witnessed, exploring movement, sensation, touch and imagination, and discovering what these experiences reveal about ourselves and the way we relate to others and to the land.

Each immersion offers space to experience, practise, reflect and discover what emerges from within ourselves, within a group and from within our relationship to nature.
