Learn the ABCs of Somatic Practice
Anchor, Balance, Center
In this program you'll learn the ABCs of somatics. You'll receive skill-building tools and practices that cultivate AWARENESS, BREATH & COMMUNITY.
Find Your Somatic Sparkle invites and equips you to step into the possibility and freedom of a new approach to life. One where you meet external change, chaos and confusion from a stable internal center --
with clarity, connection and courage.
The program is designed and delivered by Panya Walker, who has explored, studied and practiced the art and science of somatics for over 30 years, and run a private practice serving others for over 15. She has helped thousands of people achieve greater health and vitality so that they can serve at their highest level.

Breath
You'll learn somatic practices that help you deepen and connect internal awareness with external experience for greater joy, balance and positive impact.
Awareness
You'll receive tools and practices that tap into an often neglected "intelligence" in the modern world, for enhanced awareness, focus and responsive capability.
You'll find your somatic sparkle over the course of two months of synchronous group experiencing led by Panya Walker, and asynchronous practicum. All synchronous meetings will be held by Zoom during the summer of 2025. We will decide as a cohort on meeting dates and times. DOWNLOAD SCHEDULE

I joined during the pandemic when we were dealing with uprising and lockdown at the same time. Being able to work through my personal trauma while still being able to manage what was happening outside was vitally important to my health.
