About James

I love my body, it has so much potential to do, to build, grow & change plus many morethings.  Through Rolfing & Yoga teaching I like to help people love their body too.  Always I’m seeking what’s good what’s really working in anybodies body, & what can I help to work better. So often we will focus on the negative, “I hate my feet” instead of loving our feet for supporting & moving us everyday.  Sometimes this is difficult pain, will make it hard to connect with your body & also the wider world around you.

My work is very much a luxury; we can all live our lives without relishing our bodies (many people do).  Often we have been encouraged to not listen to our bodies; children love to fidget but our schools encourage them to sit still.  We are taught maths but not how to walk run or move with ease & efficiency.  Some people figure this out on their own, they are the dancers, the acrobats, the sportsmen & women.  For others learning about walking and allowing it to change can be amazing.

My motivation as a Rolfer is to sharewhat I know with people.  Some of this is knowledge is the conventional brain knowledge; more often it’s about helping someone to feel something in their body.  Helping people generate this body intelligence is very rewarding & I’m grateful that my work is also my passion.
