Cultivating Resourcefulness and Ease in Movement

Hello, I’m Katrin Neue, an interdisciplinary movement educator registered with ISMETA. With over 20 years of professional experience in teaching Dance, Somatics and Pilates, I’m passionate about helping you achieve a more comfortable, aware, and confident way of moving.

Somatics is all about embodiment and melting away the layers of holding patterns that prevent you from moving forward. It’s a collaborative approach to self-care, offering clear movement suggestions that consider your whole being. My approach, rooted in the tradition of Thomas Hanna, is both secular and practical.

Somatics enhances your awareness of how you move, simplifying your movements for greater efficiency, pleasure, and ease by doing less.

Pilates is all about control and strength. My Pilates based teaching has a deep base in somatic approaches and good movement mechanics above aesthetically driven cues. I teach Pilates on the mat and reformer to anyone who wants to feel stronger and more supported in their bodies.

Let me assist you on your journey to better health!

Taking Katrin’s online class due to Lockdown. Katrin is easy to follow, gives knowledgeable instructions and sends a sound recording for week long practice. Booking is easy. Somatics are relaxing, gentle yet subtle. With very little effort the body engages in deeper and deeper stretching until optimum movement is achieved with seemingly little effort. Katrin’s comments lend that extra detail that make sense of or connect what’s happening inside to the movement. Amazing to be able to do all that long distance over a screen. Particularly good for sore or problem bodies.

Thanks for the wonderful class (I was the one who yawned a lot because you were doing such a great job of helping me relax!)
