~Slow Somatic Flow~
a weekly therapeutic movement class for women
Wednesday evenings 6:15-7:30pm | in-person at Fearless Heart Waterloo
What to expect…
Arrive in the space before class begins (as early as 6pm, if desired) and help yourself to a tea. Lay out a yoga/exercise mat, settle in. There are lots of fun sensory tools in the space that you’re welcome to use for supporting your body in fully arriving.
Ayesha will guide the group (class size limited to 6 people) through a mix-modal movement practice combining organic somatic movement, therapeutic yoga, myofascial release, and partner stretching.
Classes may also include exercises of co-regulation and connection in the group; space to be witnessed in how you’re arriving and what your body is feeling in real-time.
✨ The vibe ✨: nourishing, curious, exploratory, gentle, playful, sensory, connective
Let’s be human together ❤️
Ayesha creates such a safe and welcoming space where I felt really held and free to explore. The practices she shared including breath, movement, and somatic work, felt so soft, feminine, and wild in the best way. I loved how simple and grounded everything was, with tools I can easily bring into my day-to-day life. I’m so grateful for Ayesha and this journey. It really helped me come home to myself in a deeper way. The moments that felt most impactful for me were definitely the somatic movement practices. They helped me drop out of my head and really connect with my body in such a real, gentle way. I also loved how Ayesha brought nature into the space through art and meditation; it made everything feel so alive and connected. And honestly, her playlists are lit! The music added so much energy and emotion to each session.

Testimonials
The experiences I had with Ayesha were incredibly nourishing. My heart feels soothed, and satisfied. I find it hard to experience satisfaction, in general. But with the somatic practices Ayesha guided us through as a group, my system felt safe, supported, and more expressive than ever before. I feel like I've tapped into my self-expression in a new, powerful, and playful way. For the first time, I feel less concerned with how I'll be received, and more in touch with the parts of me that have been playing small for my entire life. I feel free to use my voice. And trust that the right people will meet me there. That, is everything.

I have done a few workshops with Ayesha. Every time I learn so much about myself and how to better take care of myself. I meet amazing people and Ayesha makes you feel so comfortable, safe and seen. It is always an amazing experience.

Ayesha masterfully guided me to deeply connect with my body so that I can more easily recognize my truth. It was great to learn new practices that can help me continue to grow and learn, and to be my authentic self.

Ayesha Nobes
Ayesha is an embodiment and somatic practitioner, guiding women who are deeply engaged in their healing move beyond cognitive-only processing and into emotional alchemy and embodied inner knowing. Having worked in the wellness and embodiment field for over a decade, she brings rich experience and depth.
She prioritizes the importance of resourcing and integration, creating a nurturing container where you can unravel and be held.
Ayesha plays with the therapeutic concepts of both catharsis and titration in her work. Catharsis when pushing growth edges (mainly in group containers), and titration for a slower, steadier, grounded approach to healing (mainly in 1x1 sessions).
In both approaches, Ayesha prioritizes the importance of resourcing and integration, creating a nurturing container where you can unravel and be held.
Her professional foundation and educational background is rooted in trauma-informed yoga therapy, somatic experiencing (SEI), registered massage therapy (RMT), and medical acupuncture. While she is currently not active in her RMT/acupuncture practice, her clinical experience has provided her with a strong understanding of anatomy, therapeutic concepts, and a deep commitment to compassionate and quality care. In addition, Ayesha educates movement and wellness professionals in the topics of musculoskeletal anatomy, somatics, myofascial release, and nervous system education. She has trained over 400 professionals in these areas of study to date. See her work with HealthyHips® and CE programs here.
