Somatic Sunday: The world on your shoulders

January 17, 2025

📅 Sunday April 26, 2026, at 10:00-12:00 (CET).
An in-depth Somatic Movement workshop online via Zoom. This time, we’ll give extra attention to our shoulders and neck. Do you sometimes feel pain or tension in your shoulders in daily life, or perhaps when leading or following in dance? Maybe you are prone to tension headaches when there is a lot going on around you? Or do you simply wish to give yourself a little extra care so you can move through your days with greater ease and comfort? We will begin by exploring how the shoulders and neck are connected to the rest of the body, and then continue with gentle movements to release tension you no longer need to hold on to.​ All you need for the workshop is a mat, comfortable clothes, a quiet space, and an internet connection. Fee: SEK 450 (Euro 42). The Zoom link will be sent upon registration. The workshop will be held in English.
Warm welcome! Sign up here

Somatic Sunday: Hips don´t lie

January 17, 2025

📅 Sunday May 24, 2026, 10:00–12:00 (CET).
Join us for another in-depth Somatic Movement workshop online via Zoom. We will explore the anatomy and unconscious muscle tension in and around the hips and legs. This workshop is valuable for everyone, but especially if you experience pain or tightness around your hips, legs, or knees. Perhaps you have osteoarthritis or suspect you might? Or maybe there are certain movements you avoid because they cause you pain? All you need for the workshop is a mat, comfortable clothes, a quiet space, and an internet connection. Fee: SEK 450 (Euro 42). The Zoom link will be sent upon registration. The workshop will be held in English.​

Workshops on request

Do you have a passion for tango and want to be able to continue dancing? Are you planning for workshops and are interested in themes about tango and keeping healty as a tango dancer?

I hold workshops on demand. Here are some examples, but you are also very welcome to contact me for suggestions.

Anatomy of the Tango

Are you looking for a deeper understanding of how you can use your body in a way that is more optimal both for your tango and for your health? I go through the anatomical structures and show models of skeletons to give an understanding of how it all fits together. We search for and experience how the structures feel in our own body. In this way, you first get a theoretical understanding which is then deepened by the experienced anatomy of your own body. We conclude by seeing how the anatomy affects us in our tango and how we can create the best conditions for a comfortable and sustainable dance.

The body's fascia (connective tissue) - what is it and what does it have to do with tango? 

This is how it works.

Our fascia is what actually holds our entire body together. It is found in and around our muscles, our joints, our organs and our bones. When the fascia becomes stiff, it's like wearing a sweater that's too tight, we can't fit. It makes our dancing uncomfortable and it often leads to pain that can prevent you from dancing or make you limited in your repertoire. I go through methods that are both effective and gentle to take care of your fascia and you get the opportunity to try it yourself and ask questions.

Resistance Stretching

An effective way to maintain and increase your mobility.

Many of us have been told that we should stretch...but not so much about HOW to do it in the best way. Stretching often involves bringing a muscle to its most stretched position and holding it there for a certain period of time. Does that sound familiar? What happens then is that we increase the mobility around our joints. Contrary to what many people think, it is not where we want increased mobility, our joints do well with stability. What is required, however, for our muscles to quickly shorten in a boleo and then relax and lengthen is that we take care of our connective tissue inside the muscles. Come and try it and you will discover the difference yourself.
