The Free Your Spine Method

" Free Your Spine is for the creative rebels, the change makers, the dreamers and the next level creators who are yearning for an alternative movement method in order to love, live and lead from an embodied and powerful sense of worth and wellbeing"

Part of my motivation with this method is to inspire people to FEEL more.

I use the body as a metaphor for how we would like to navigate and move through our life- a life that is full of flow, ease and freedom from back and body pain.

Free your spine method mission

As our lives have got busier and busier, we’ve fallen into roles we think we should fit into to conform to society.

We’ve forgotten how to express ourselves and release the playfulness within all of us.

We have become increasingly stagnant and tense in our bodies, and many of us fall prey to the mind cave of overwhelm, stress, depression and anxiety.

My mission is to support, help and empower others to feel stronger, lighter and freer in their bodies, ultimately helping them to connect back into their true creative/empowered self

Empower

After teaching dance, movement and Pilates for over a decade, I saw an opportunity for a new, more flexible approach to moving the body mindfully but playfully.

I wanted to develop a creative way to relieve back pain and bring fun back into the body and spine.

After testing and refining my approach with my students over years, I’ve created a unique Free Your Spine “move little and often” approach to make my method accessible to people everywhere

Nicola ran a Free Your Spine session during a workshop I curated for 45 stressed and exhausted cultural leaders. Despite my misgivings, Nicola had us moving, shaking, dancing and "freeing" ourselves in every way. The session not only offered us simple practical tips on how to stay flexible during an average working day but also gave us a major endorphin shot releasing our energies and raising our spirits. Nicola is skilled, knowledgeable and has an infectious spirit. If only we could bottle her energy.

Nicola is great at what she does. She has formulated her own unique method and it works brilliantly. She knows how to work with someone on individual level and to gently encourage them to move their body and have fun while doing it.

Flow

With FYS we champion the importance of flow massively by tapping into and accessing a continuous stretch in motion, via movement.

This method is another tool to add to your existing toolbox to support you in navigating your way to optimal wellbeing in your mind and body.

Working with Nicola has been the best and most beneficial body movement experiences I've had. She uses her vast knowledge and experience to focus on your individual needs, targeting the parts of your body very few other forms of movement can get to. I learnt so much from Nicola as she explained what and why she was doing each movement with me. She also gave me 'homework' which I can practice at home, thanks to her guidance. This has been one of the best experiences and I highly recommend Nicola.
