About Feldenkrais & Somatic Bodywork by Lucia D'Alessandro

Run by movement practitioner Lucia D'Alessandro, this South Melbourne studio is built around somatic, embodied movement rather than high-output workouts. The philosophy is that the way we move shapes not only the body but also our thoughts, emotions and inner sense of self, and every session is designed with that connection in mind.

The practice blends the Feldenkrais Method with yoga and expressive, sensitive dance, offering a gentle yet powerful approach to moving better and feeling more at home in your body. Sessions range from group classes to deeply personalised one-on-one work, so the experience can be tailored to your needs, history and goals.

It is a space well suited to people exploring movement for flexibility, ease of pain, rehabilitation, personal growth or simply a calmer relationship with their body. With a teacher-training pathway also on offer, South Melbourne locals can come purely to move and restore, or go deeper into the craft of somatic practice itself. The focus throughout stays on awareness, self-expression and sustainable, mindful movement.
