WHAT IS SOMATIC-MUSIC?
Somatic-music is the term for a method of learning music that brings us out of our heads and into our bodies. By focusing less on the maths of music, we focus on our own emotional and subtle-body-sensation response to music, as a way to imprint and learn the laws of music theory.
​​
​
My courses and workshops equip you with the tools you need to advance your musical knowledge, grow your confidence jamming with other musicians and express your own inner-worlds, as a way to regulate your nervous-system and support yourself to process the normal emotions of life.
​​
​
​
My exploration of the connection between somatics and music theory came about from my background of learning to dance alongside learning to create sound through the cello and songwriting guided by sensations in my body to find the right chords, harmony and melodies that felt they could match somatic sensation inside.
I have always been drawn to the emotional power of music, and through my highly sensitive nature and thirst for noticing patterns, I have drawn links to how bodyyyyyyyyyyyyy sensation YAY YOU GOT THS KATIE. good work xxxx

I have developed 'Somatic-Music Education' as a new approach to learning Western Music Theory, guided by an embodied inner-experience of the subtle sensations we feel in our bodies in response to hearing different notes, harmony, melody and other elements of music. Somatics helps us to fine-tune the resolution of how our bodies, thoughts and emotions relate to one another.
Somatic-Music aims to enhance your ability to translate your body sensations into music following the physical-science of patterns set out in Western Music Theory.
​
​
It aims to give you agency in choosing notes and chords guided by your inner-somatci landscape, as one approach to expessing your inner emotions for your own pleasure of music-making.

It is my belief that writing or composing music is a form of self-healing where the tools of music theory can support us to meet and process our intricate inner-worlds of sensation and emotion. << GET SCIENCE PROOF

SOMATIC-MUSIC EDUCATION
WHAT IS SOMATICS?
Somatics comes from the Greek word 'soma,' meaning 'the living body in its wholeness,' or 'the body as a sound whole.'
​​
The practice of somatics is a wide field that works to deepen the relationship between the body and the mind through developing self-awareness of sensation in relation to movement, sound, physical and emotional experiences and thought. Somatic practices can improve well-being, self-esteem, setting healthy boundaries and generally feeling a sense of fulfillment in life.​​​​
