[NewsLady]

o have exercises you can do on your own and an instructor to motivate, monitor and guide you according to your abilities? If so, then this may be exactly what you're seeking.

 

Personal Training without Machines. Utilizing stretchy Bands, wall stretches, Pilates, Yoga, Clinical Somatics & other Somatic Exercise Modalities to stretch, strengthen, balance and integrate the total body. Experience how the entire body interconnects. For students who have an exercise history and are seeking ways to soothe problem areas, align the muscles and bones, restore good posture and improve the shape one is in. To supplement one's self-care routine, so to cross train with what one is already doing. Recognizing walking doesn't cover all we need as we age and that being fit and having good health is multi- faceted.

 

About the Instructor- Suzanne Clare has been a devotee & instructor of exercise for over 30 years. She is a Certified Pilates Mat & Bal Instructor, a Certified Integrative Yoga Therapist, former Personal Trainer and  a Fl. State Licensed Massage Therapist.

A year ago mid- August, Suzanne, slipped in a puddle on a patch of slime, cracked her kneecap & had surgery. Fortunately, she has restored her movement abilities extremely well. Ms. Clare feels she owes her success to the addition of Clinical Somatics & other Somatic Movement Exercises into her exercise regime. 

Now, she would like to share her latest passion with other exercises from her diverse background with students who want to reduce pain, restore whole body movement and relearn natural ease of motion. Through a whole body range of Somatic Movement Exercises, Suzanne not only restored her knee but undid the back & hip inflammation she had experienced prior to her accident. "More centered, I feel as though I'm walking better, and am less vulnerable to slipping...a great and necessary skill to have in Boquete."

 

Student Comment-

"Great Classes! Diverse, interesting. Both a good work-out and thoroughly relaxing. Exercises cover the total body. I've learned that problem areas stem from many places, not only where I feel tension. The exercise instructions sent afterward are terrific, as well as the online course I subscribed to.

 All in all, Suzanne provides an effective and reasonably priced package for in-person private instruction. After just 2 classes, I'm already feeling a lot more at ease and less tense, and look forward to continuing on a weekly basis.-  J.P.B.

 

And One More-

           "I’ve been actively exercising in one form or another since relocating to Boquete from the US.

Building upon my experiences at the US Naval Academy, I’ve done cross country running, swimming, Pilates, Zumba, several types of yoga, mountain hiking (still do this) and now Somatics.

Each has its place and function, however the only one that puts it all together for the whole body in a gentle non-injurious way is Somatics. 

In the short time I’ve done Somatics my hiking stamina & speed has increased. I highly recommend Somatics from Suzanne Clare for those who want a life of enhanced, pain-free quality with a feeling of health & control. I feel Somatics is the ultimate – but not the only – activity one must embrace for a healthy life; an aerobic activity such as dancing, running, biking or hiking is recommended as an adjunct to Somatics.

Somatics is a viable solution for anyone with problems with specific body parts such as neck, back, shoulder, hip, knee, ankle, etc. I particularly like the freedom to vary and alter the exercises to suit the individual and keep it interesting. - Roger  Imerman, Leader- Hike Boquete

Private Classes are at a central location in Bajo Boquete. Mat exercises are done on a futon with 2 extra thick, extra wide exercise mats on a platform at a convenient height. Classes may also utilize wall stretches, standing and stretchy band exercises & chair movements. 

The first class is $20, followed by one class a week [or less often] for $20, and 2 or 3 classes per week are $15 each; to be paid once weekly. 

Private Classes focus on specific problem areas of the student in addition to giving him or her an experience of how the whole body is interconnected.  Written instructions for the wall, standing and stretchy band exercises are emailed to help one recollect the exercises given so to practice movements in-between sessions. An inexpensive and effective, online Somatic Movement exercise program is also recommended to supplement the in-person instruction.
