Dvodnevna radionica Essential Somatics - Move With Ease s Marthom PetersonZagreb | 2.–3. svibnja 2026.
Ova dvodnevna radionica pruža praktičan i iskustveni uvod u Essential Somatics - pristup koji pomaže razumjeti kako kronična mišićna napetost, nelagoda i ograničenja pokreta nastaju kao rezultat naučenih obrazaca u živčanom sustavu.
Radionica je posebno vrijedna za sve koji rade s tijelom - terapeute, somatske praktičare, trenere, učitelje pokreta, plesače; kao i za osobe koje žele bolje razumjeti odnos između mozga, mišića i pokreta te poboljšati udobnost i kvalitetu kretanja.
Središnji pojam u kliničkoj somatici je senzorno-motorna amnezija (SMA) - stanje u kojem mozak postupno gubi dio sposobnosti jasnog osjećanja i svjesne kontrole određenih mišića. Kao rezultat toga, mišići mogu ostati kronično kontrahirani, što može utjecati na držanje, pokretljivost i opći osjećaj lakoće u tijelu.
Ovi obrasci često su povezani s prirodnim refleksnim odgovorima na stres, ozljede ili ponavljajuće obrasce kretanja koji s vremenom postaju nesvjesni i automatski.
Kroz Essential Somatics pristup moguće je ponovno razviti svjesnost i dobrovoljnu kontrolu nad mišićima, djelujući kroz proces učenja i svjesnog pokreta.
PRAKTIČAN RAD KROZ SOMATSKE VJEŽBE
Radionica je prvenstveno praktična i temelji se na izvođenju polaganih, precizno vođenih somatskih pokreta.
Kroz ove lekcije naučit ćeš kako:
– prepoznati vlastite obrasce kronične mišićne napetosti
– poboljšati sposobnost osjećanja i svjesne kontrole mišića
– naučiti pandikulaciju, temeljnu somatsku tehniku koja pomaže obnoviti komunikaciju između mozga i mišića
– smanjiti nesvjesnu mišićnu napetost i poboljšati udobnost pokreta
– poboljšati pokretljivost, koordinaciju i kvalitetu kretanja
– razviti praktične alate i somatske vježbe koje možeš koristiti samostalno
Ovaj pristup ne temelji se na istezanju ili forsiranju, već na ponovnom učenju mozga kako regulirati mišićnu napetost kroz svjestan, kontroliran pokret.
ZA KOGA JE RADIONICA
Radionica je otvorena svima i nije potrebno prethodno iskustvo.
Posebno je korisna za:
– somatske praktičare
– fizioterapeute
– trenere i učitelje pokreta
– yoga, pilates i plesne instruktore
– terapeute koji rade s tijelom
– osobe s kroničnom boli, napetošću ili ograničenjem pokreta

🎓 O VODITELJICI
Martha Peterson je certificirana klinička somatska edukatorica i osnivačica Essential Somatics, s više od 30 godina iskustva u radu s profesionalcima iz područja plesa, tjelesne terapije i somatskog obrazovanja.
Nakon dugogodišnje profesionalne plesne karijere, suočila se s kroničnom boli u kukovima i koljenima uzrokovanom ozljedama. Tek kroz kliničku (Hanna) somatsku edukaciju naučila je kako trajno ukloniti bol i posturalne neuravnoteženosti.
Za Marthu, ponovno učenje osjećaja vlastitog tijela postalo je ključ za život ispunjen većom slobodom pokreta, svjesnošću i unutarnjom lakoćom.
MOGUĆNOST DALJNJE EDUKACIJE (ESMTT)
Trenutno istražujemo mogućnost organizacije **Essential Somatics Teacher Training programa (ESMTT) u Hrvatskoj**, potencijalno već na jesen 2026.
Ovaj program namijenjen je svima koji žele produbiti svoje razumijevanje kliničke somatike i integrirati ovaj pristup u profesionalni rad.
Sudjelovanje na ovoj radionici predstavlja obavezni preduvjet za prijavu na ESMTT program.
Program je još u fazi planiranja, a njegova realizacija ovisit će o interesu sudionika.
ŠTO PONIJETI
– udobnu odjeću
– prostirku za kretanje ili jogu
– bocu vode
Ako nemaš prostirku, može se osigurati uz prethodnu najavu.
ČESTO POSTAVLJANA PITANJA
**Trebam li prethodno iskustvo za sudjelovanje?**
Ne. Radionica je otvorena svima i ne zahtijeva prethodno znanje ili iskustvo.
**Hoće li radionica biti fizički zahtjevna?**
Ne u uobičajenom smislu. Pokreti se izvode polako i nježno, uz stalno poticanje slušanja vlastitog tijela.
**Moram li prisustvovati oba dana?**
Da. Za cjelovito razumijevanje i iskustvo somatskog pristupa važno je sudjelovati tijekom cijele radionice.

ENGLISH
Two-Day Workshop: Essential Somatics – Move With Ease with Martha Peterson
**Zagreb | May 2–3, 2026**
This two-day workshop offers a practical and experiential introduction to Essential Somatics - an approach that helps you understand how chronic muscle tension, discomfort, and movement limitations develop as a result of learned patterns in the nervous system.
The workshop is especially valuable for anyone working with the body - therapists, somatic practitioners, trainers, movement teachers, dancers; as well as for individuals who want to better understand the relationship between the brain, muscles, and movement, and improve comfort and quality of movement.
A central concept in clinical somatics is **Sensory-Motor Amnesia (SMA)** - a condition in which the brain gradually loses part of its ability to clearly sense and consciously control certain muscles. As a result, muscles may remain chronically contracted, affecting posture, mobility, and the overall sense of ease in the body.
These patterns are often connected to natural reflex responses to stress, injury, or repetitive movement patterns that over time become unconscious and automatic.
Through the Essential Somatics approach, it is possible to redevelop awareness and voluntary control of muscles through a process of learning and conscious movement.
PRACTICAL WORK THROUGH SOMATIC EXERCISES
The workshop is primarily practical and based on performing slow, precisely guided somatic movements.
Through these lessons, you will learn how to:
– recognize your own patterns of chronic muscle tension
– improve your ability to sense and consciously control your muscles
– learn pandiculation, a foundational somatic technique that helps restore communication between the brain and muscles
– reduce unconscious muscle tension and improve movement comfort
– improve mobility, coordination, and quality of movement
– develop practical tools and somatic exercises you can use independently
This approach is not based on stretching or forcing, but on retraining the brain to regulate muscle tension through conscious, controlled movement.
WHO IS THIS WORKSHOP FOR?
The workshop is open to everyone and no prior experience is required.
It is especially beneficial for:
– somatic practitioners
– physiotherapists
– trainers and movement teachers
– yoga, pilates, and dance instructors
– body-oriented therapists
– individuals with chronic pain, tension, or movement limitations

🎓 ABOUT THE FACILITATOR
Martha Peterson is a certified Clinical Somatic Educator and the founder of Essential Somatics, with over 30 years of experience working with professionals in dance, body therapy, and somatic education.
After a long professional dance career, she faced chronic hip and knee pain caused by injuries. It was through Clinical (Hanna) Somatic Education that she learned how to permanently eliminate pain and postural imbalances.
For Martha, relearning how to sense her own body became the key to a life filled with greater freedom of movement, awareness, and inner ease.
FURTHER EDUCATION OPPORTUNITY (ESMTT)
We are currently exploring the possibility of organizing the **Essential Somatics Teacher Training program (ESMTT) in Croatia**, potentially as early as Fall 2026.
This program is intended for those who wish to deepen their understanding of clinical somatics and integrate this approach into their professional work.
Participation in this workshop is a mandatory prerequisite for applying to the ESMTT program.
The program is still in the planning phase, and its realization will depend on participant interest.
WHAT TO BRING
– comfortable clothing
– a movement or yoga mat
– a bottle of water
If you do not have a mat, one can be provided with prior notice.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
**Do I need prior experience to participate?**

**Will the workshop be physically demanding?**
Not in the usual sense. The movements are performed slowly and gently, with continuous encouragement to listen to your body.
**Do I need to attend both days?**
Yes. For a complete understanding and experience of the somatic approach, participation throughout the entire workshop is important.
