Don’t Suffer with Painful Muscles: Try Somatic Movement

The leaves are beginning to fall and the days are becoming shorter; autumn has arrived. It’s a new season and a great opportunity to do something new for yourself – Somatic Movement!

What is Somatic Movement?  It’s a slow, safe and gentle form of therapeutic movement developed to re-educate your brain to safely release, lengthen and relax muscles. It helps you discover muscles that have become habitually contracted, learn how to release them, and reduce muscular pain.

Join expert Carole Marshall for a six-week programme to raise awareness of the way you move and respond to stress, and the impact that it has on your body. We will address a different area of the body each week, learning movements that encourage relaxation and and realignment. Building week by week, Carole will encourage and enable you to develop your own 10-15 minute daily practice.

Mastering Black and White Drawing with Michael Ajerman

Our super-popular drawing course with expert Michael Ajerman returns in autumn 2019 with a focus on the exciting Felix Vallotton exhibition currently held at Royal Academy. In this 4-week course, students will explore how blacks and whites are used powerfully and poetically in his paintings, along with looking at Vallotton’s interiors which skilfully carve line in a flawless fashion.

Vallotton’s exhibition at the RA has caused a shudder amongst those whom have seen it. Art lovers say that it’s an exercise in disquiet; powerful; poetic; and haunting.

Under Michael’s expert guidance, this is a rare opportunity to study a master of the Belle Èpoque, learning skills which explore line, form and the power of the line on paper.

Absolutely no skills nor expertise is required, and Michael will provide all materials for you. He’s hosting this class at the wonderful OSO Arts Centre, easily reached by public transportation.
