Somatic Dance and Movement Therapy opens the way for people to experience full mind and body connectivity, bringing the unconscious to consciousness through simple somatic exercises, movement meditations and physical and psycho-education. In terms of trauma and working with people who are nonverbal, SDMT is ideal as verbalisation is not always necessary. We specialise in working with trauma related conditions with a focus toward post traumatic growth.

Research over the past 80 years has shown the connection between whole body connectivity and a healthier life experience, body image, confidence, emotional regulation, pain relief and overall well being.


In terms of trauma treatment, SDMT offers an opportunity to process emotions without the painful re-traumatisation that can occur from a regular retelling of the story relied on in more cognitive or talk based therapies.

No movement experience necessary

No movement experience necessary

Don't be put off by the word dance- all we do is move...in the way that feels comfortable for you.

All exercise programs are individually structured for you, for your body type, mobility, experience and modified along the way to support your individual experience and felt sense of safety.

Individual sessions, Classes and Workshops

We feel passionate about bringing this important therapy to people in the way that feels best for each individual. Whether that be in an individual session in either our Bannockburn or Geelong Spaces, a class, a workshop, and soon to be in video format. If you'd like to keep in contact about our classes/workshops or video sessions, or to make an appointment, let Mia know, your information is never shared, or used for any other purpose than you have indicated.
