Heal your over-worked hands in this fun and transformative class!  

We use our hands all the time, for work, play and all of life’s routines. It’s easy to acquire tension and habits of effort. But when was the last time you mindfully cared for our valuable hands?

Discover how to release and mobilise your hands, wrists and fingers to create grace, ease and flexibility. Learn gentle, relaxing explorations of movement and sensible self-management.

  • Improve coordination of fingers, thumbs, hand, wrist and whole body
