Practice
My practice in Pt Chevalier, Auckland is diverse and fluid in its scope: my oldest client is ninety, my youngest, newborn. My areas of specialization include children, sports and performing artists, birth recovery, vision and rehabilitation.
I have a particular specialty in working with young people - from athletes and musicians who wish to improve their performance and reduce injuries to children with cerebral palsy who learn to become mobile with grace. And an equal interest in working with adults who wish to restore a function or to develop grace and dynamic comfort in their posture. My work is centred on the needs of the individual, and is of necessity, both precise and creative.
Profile
A native of Miami, I completed degrees in biology and early childhood education, and studied martial arts and dance. I have been teaching adults and children for 25 years, in private practice, in the university and in the community. My personal injuries and recovery has enriched my understanding of human functioning (from babyhood to adulthood and beyond). This has led me to a unique and sensitive application of Moshe’s body of work.
