Cultivating Resourcefulness and Ease in Movement

Hello, I’m Katrin Neue, an interdisciplinary movement educator and mentor. 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!

I had the chance to visit one workshop at Woollinn Dublin. It was Somatic Movement for Crafters by the brilliant Katrin Neue from SOMAdublin. I can recommend to make an appointment with her. I have a lot of back and shoulder problems and the way I knit does not make it better. She gave good advice and saw with one look what was wrong with me and my movements. After this 45min workshop, I was able to help myself with simple movements for the right body parts. Thank you again. You changed my life! And everyone with knitting back and shoulder problems should contact her!

My favourite movement teacher! â¤

I have had the pleasure of both learning with Katrin and attending her taught sessions. I know her to be a committed student, a consummate professional and a passionate advocate of dance and somatic movement. Katrin knows and loves her field and routinely updates and expands her professional knowledge. She has a confident and reassuring presence in the classroom or with clients, and is playful and creative with subject matter, delivering with dynamism. Katrin’s taught sessions go beyond simply teaching movement, weaving other skills and knowledge seamlessy into her lessons.
