Root and rise

A Movement Practice for Women in Midlife & Beyond

Private/Workplace Classes

Entering midlife and the menopause transition doesn’t have to mean you lose your energy, clarity, or confidence. In fact, with the right kind of lifestyle tweaks, you can feel more powerful than ever. I promise you….

I’ve designed a new practice that anyone can do (particularly those of you who haven’t exercised for a while) that will leave you feeling a greater sense of vitality but also a deep sense of calm and contentment.

Root and Rise blends dynamic Chinese Exercises with the transformative energy of Qigong — a 4,000-year-old practice that restores your balance, clears emotional tension, and recharges your life force.

The first half of the class the is designed to gently increase your heart rate and get your muscles are working - but not so much that it stresses your body or makes you want to walk out the door! Unless we have eaten good levels of protein and exercised regularly we may have lost up to 20% of our muscle mass by the time we hit 50. So we need a different kind of class that strengthens our bones and keeps us fit and toned but we just can’t expect our bodies to work out like they might have done in our twenties - not straight away anyway!

The second half of the class is all about getting in touch with your body, your energy, how you’re feeling and quietening your mind. Honestly it’s the perfect combination.

But if you need more convincing here is what a couple of my participants have to say:

Alison Redgrove from Equine Shiatsu said:
“A powerful experience leaving me with a sensation of the utmost tranquility. You have a true gift, Caroline, and I can highly recommend you”

Sam Dingle from Young Fire Academy said:

“I felt so held by the space that Caroline creates in the Magnificent Menopause sessions. I particularly love how movement and Qigong is integrated into the sessions. I always come away from our sessions feeling that by giving time for this, I have been very kind to myself. ”

So…

Whether you're feeling emotionally overwhelmed, physically depleted or you would like to bring a bit more peace into your world - Root and Rise gently guides you back to balance. No previous experience is needed — just curiosity, willingness, and a desire to feel more at home in yourself.
