Roger Bowden

Feldenkrais practitioner

Roger discovered the Feldenkrais Method when seeking relief from chronic shoulder bursitis. Now, ten years later, he supports others in improving their physical and mental well-being through gentle, mindful movement practices. His work is especially impactful for those navigating chronic pain, neurological conditions such as autism or Parkinson’s, and anyone simply looking to move and live with greater ease.

His sessions are gentle, deeply restorative, and accessible to all ages and abilities. Whether you’re an athlete, artist, or simply someone looking to reconnect with your body, Roger’s guidance offers a profound path to greater balance, energy, and inner awareness.

Functional Integration

This hands-on, personalized session addresses individual concerns through gentle, guided movement while fully clothed on a padded table. The goal is to bring unconscious movement patterns into awareness and offer new, more efficient alternatives. These improvements often extend beyond the physical—enhancing emotional balance, cognitive function, breathing, and overall vitality.

Awareness Through Movement® – Group or Private Class

Guided in a safe and calming environment, participants explore structured sequences of movement—usually lying down but also seated or standing. By becoming curious and attentive to their own patterns, they discover smoother, more efficient ways of moving through life. The practice fosters mindfulness, presence, and resilience from the inside out.

Workshop Intensives

For a deeper dive, Roger offers themed workshops focusing on key areas such as the hips, shoulders, spine, or integrated full-body movement. These include three shorter Awareness Through Movement sessions and open discussions. Workshops are ideal for those looking to refine daily actions like walking, sitting, surfing—or simply sensing the body with renewed clarity and ease.
