Feldenkrais Method® Educator
Aruna Padmanabhan is a guild certified Feldenkrais Method® teacher who leads Awareness Through Movement® classes. Centered around slow, gentle movements and guided attention, these classes create a space for us to listen to ourselves, in a way we may not have since childhood.
Bringing her own interest in body awareness, Aruna encourages students to be curious about themselves and in the process uncover small, largely unconscious patterns that restrict movement and influence behavior. During the lessons, movements done with awareness engage the neuroplasticity of the brain to create new patterns, new habits and new ways of being in the world.
Aruna’s classes, taught in a warm and friendly manner, allow each person to discover that finding ease in small movements can have a profound effect on the entire self.

Life Alignment Practitioner
Chiara Prato is a Life Alignment practitioner. Life Alignment is an extraordinary system that assists you to release the intense energetic and emotional charge that has accumulated in your body over your lifetime. It helps you to re-write your past, re-wire your brain and balance your auric field and move into alignment with your true essence.
Chiara’s path started casually with an Aikido lesson, where for the first time, she experienced energies in a conscious way. Curious and enthusiastic about this new discovery, Chiara first began her studies of Naturopathy, focusing on Chromo-therapy and Touch for Health.
But the real change occurred when she discovered Life Alignment in 2010. Chiara no longer felt alone and no longer thought “it was me against the world.” As a result, Chiara felt the connection to the energy and support of her ancestors and found her place in the Universe.
Chiara became a Life Alignment Practitioner in 2016. Since then, her love for this technique continues to grow, as the system evolves. She shares this precious technique with the rest of the world, and lives in Italy where she is training to become a Life Alignment teacher.
