Barbara's mantra is 'your body is your teacher' and believes her role is simply to facilitate that learning process and help individuals develop their intuition and to learn to listen to their bodies.

Barbara offers classes (open, private & corporate), workshops and private appointments.

Barbara also offers body ball rolling therapy which is a form of fitness & massage rolled into one. Body Rolling goes far beyond random movement & stretch.

Body Ball Rolling re-educates & lengthens muscles, stimulates bone, creating positive changes in the body. It releases tension & energy blocks, creates space & freedom of movement within your body. It enables you to develop a deeper understanding of your body, improves posture, helps to let go of habitual patterning & can help prevent injuries. It can be particularly beneficial for specific conditions e.g. sciatica, back pain, frozen shoulder, sports injuries etc.

Body ball rolling works the way a hands-on practitioner works - only using a ball. The ball replaces the hand as it moves on muscles to lengthen them, dislodge tension & discomfort, increase blood flow, & promote healing. In a class a series of routines are used working the whole body. For specific physical conditions one-to-one tuition is recommended.

Barbara is also an HR, training and development specialist, Coach and Mentor and has been working in this field for a number of years. Barbara is particularly interested in 'wellbeing' and helping and supporting people to make the necessary changes to empower themselves in achieving their goals and maintaining a work life balance. Barbara runs workshops on managing stress, worklife balance and general wellbeing.
