You love July and August. But they can disrupt your sense of well-being.
With holidays, visitors and travel, the self-care routines that sustain you can slip away.
And the heat can leave you feeling slower than usual.
But the season's script says: get outside, be more active, enjoy nature at her fullest.
So you feel guilty when your body craves shade, quiet, rest or a slower rhythm instead.
Or if – when you do go out and move – it asks for gentler care for a vulnerable knee, hip, shoulder, back or foot ...
The truth is, if your self-care looks different during the hotter months, that isn't failure. It's body awareness in action.
For many of us, there is much more to this season than relishing its long, balmy days. There's overheating, fatigue, disrupted sleep, travel challenges, sensory overload or the need of more rest.
That's why we designed the new round of Body Renewal to give you a kind, adaptable way to care for yourself as your routine shifts.
Body Renewal Summer 2026
Over 9 weeks, Body Renewal will help you adjust your self-care and movement to real summer life – whether you're staying in to keep cool, lifting bags onto train or planes, walking on the sand, or simply trying not to lose touch with yourself as routines dissolve.
Somatic Movement Classes
Ease the Load Your Body Carries
The Easing Physical Stress classes guide you to release tension and restore comfort in areas that often carry most tension in summer life.
Across this round, you'll explore support for the spine, pelvis, core, legs, breath, shoulders and arms.
This will help you move with more awareness, whether you're walking in different shoes, carrying luggage, gardening, travelling, or simply noticing where heat and activity create strain.
Instead of pushing through discomfort, you'll learn to listen more closely. And respond with movement that supports your body.
Restore Flow & Responsiveness
The BodyMind Dancing™ sessions blend somatic awareness with expressive movement, helping you stay connected as your routines change.
Summer can interrupt the structures that keep you grounded. These classes offer a place to return to your body, restore flow and honour your inner timing.
We'll guide you with movement cues - and invite you to respond freely. This allows your nervous system to react to choice in an easeful way.
Many people also find these sessions rekindle a sense of playfulness and curiosity, tapping you into the joyful energy of summer.
See The World with New Eyes
The Eye Renewal classes rest and rejuvenate tired eyes – and boost your powers of observation.
Whether you're walking in nature and travelling somewhere new this summer, these simple exercises help you notice the little things you might usually miss.
But their impact goes far beyond your vision.
Because the eyes link to the nervous system, these subtle movements also shift mood, settle anxiety and send a wave of release through your neck, shoulders and whole body.
Refine Your Inner Listening
The Authentic Movement sessions offer a contained, reflective space for deeper listening and self-connection through movement.
Summer's expansive energy pulls attention outwards – towards people, plans and activity.
These classes give you a counterbalance: time to explore your inner impulses and allow your movement to emerge from within.
Through this practice, you can strengthen trust in your body's signals and clarify what kind of care you actually need.
Live Coaching Sessions
Personalised Support for Your Summer
Two small-group live coaching sessions offer you a space to bring your personal summer self-care questions to Martha and her team.
Perhaps you want some tips for keeping moving when it's too hot to go outside. Or how to stay connected when you have a house full of guests. Or how to lift your travel bags more safely with an aching back.
Whatever your challenge, we'll explore it together and find embodied solutions that work for you.
This is where the practices become personal, translating body awareness into your actual summer.
Body Renewal is the opposite of a summer fitness challenge that urges you to push on through. It's a guided embodied immersion that invites you to listen in and follow what your body really needs this summer
"Finding ways to release stress and bracing in my body and invite in more ease, flow, peace and joy was so worth it. I'm so happy to have found such a supportive program"
- Kristen M., Educator
