Description

Clare is a dance movement therapist, yoga teacher, early childhood educator, forest school teacher and mother. Over the years, she has found joy and solace in movement practices and supports the premise that we can be bodyful, as well as mindful. Clare values non-verbal communication and the memories, wisdom, emotion and somatic knowing that our bodies hold and can directly and authentically express. Having studied ballet and contemporary dance at the Royal Academy of Dance in London, she continued to study Dance at Surrey University, Roehampton Institute in the UK. This love of somatic movement and communication, in particular sign language, enabled her to get involved in integrated community dance projects which lead to a career in service management, education and advocacy work within the Health and Disability sector in NZ. She has been teaching yoga and somatic movement for well over a decade and continues to seek out opportunities to study and learn from experienced therapists, teachers and movement practitioners. She is currently working as a dance movement therapist with neurotypical children and children and adolescents with ASD and ADHD in both clinical groups and individual settings. She also runs annual restorative movement retreats and offers individual sessions for adults.
