About
Our Core Values
EDUCATION
We prioritize high-quality and effective training and rehabilitation. Our experiences as professional dancers and movement educators make us stand out in our community. With years of experience and education working with Master Teachers in our trades, we have created broad network of professional resources to help you find strength, stamina, vitality, and suppleness.
EMPOWERMENT
We are here to meet you where you are and provide the tools for you to better understand your pain and work towards true healing. We prioritize embodiment practices that put you in touch with your own learning style in order to help you read your body's signals. We love to watch you learn and your body transform.
WHOLENESS
Uncovering our vital health is a process of remembering that we are, at the core, already whole. We are here to support you in mind, body, and spirit. We work to balance the nervous system, address structural postural imbalances, and leave space for psycho-somatic processing. We find joy in seeing you walk out of the studio and pursue your dreams!
COMMUNITY CARE
We are in this together. Together we heal, strive, love, and create safe/brave spaces for deeper connection and healing. We celebrate the individual healing in order to build a stronger network of community-minded change-makers.
OUR METHODS
The GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® Methods:
We were meant to move!
With the GYROTONIC® and GYROKINESIS® methods, our highly experienced trainers help every body feel supported, energized, and awakened to their fullest movement potential. You will discover a unique balance between strength and mobility as you move through three-dimensional circular and spiraling pathways. Our focus is on spinal health, joint support, and integrated breathing possibilities, crafting a one of a kind workout that is fun, challenging, and surprisingly relaxing. Grounded in foundation, we explore with joy the endless movement possibilities available to us all.
Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy
Our intelligent bodies carry an underlying blueprint of health throughout our lives. Pieces of this health get covered up by physical injuries, emotional challenges, overwhelming experiences, and chronic pain. BCST can help integrate these experiences, allowing more of your essential self to thrive. During a session, you will lay or sit comfortably fully clothed while the practitioner uses gentle hands on, guiding verbal cues, and pure presence to support you in slowing down the pace of life, balancing the nervous system, and safely guiding your body to release what is not serving it any longer. We work with the body as a whole, yet tune into the wavelike flow of cerebrospinal fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord. Our practitioners hold their extensive knowledge of anatomy along with a curiosity of what is arising in the moment to determine what the body might need. A session can leave you more relaxed, more supported, and in less physical pain.
Pilates
Breathe. Concentration.
Control. Centering. Flow.
We are classically trained instructors with a contemporary spirit; our classes focus on alignment, rhythm, balance, whole body integration, and joy!
We stay true to the foundations of Joseph Pilates's Principals while incorporating our own creativity as appropriate.
Massage Therapy
Working with the many layers of the body, Studio Soma's varied bodywork has something for everyone. Our practitioners are trained in deep tissue, shiatsu, and myofascial release techniques.
Feldenkrais® Method
The Feldenkrais® Method is a gentle, exploratory approach to improving movement, posture, and overall ease in the body. Through slow, attentive exploration, the method helps you shift habitual patterns, reduce unnecessary effort, and expand your capacity for coordinated, comfortable movement.
Using Awareness Through Movement® lessons and one-on-one Functional Integration® sessions, Feldenkrais works with your nervous system’s natural ability to learn and adapt. It is especially supportive for chronic tension, pain, coordination challenges, and for anyone seeking more efficiency, balance, or resilience in daily life.
At Studio Soma, Feldenkrais complements our other modalities by enhancing body awareness, coordination, and movement clarity — helping you get more out of what you practice in the studio and bringing those benefits into your everyday life.
