Welcome
The Wildflower Way™ is a meditative movement method rooted in spiral somatics, rooted mechanics, and fascia-focused flow. It's about somatic sensing, gentle strength, and the wild joy of showing up fully in your body. Below is a living glossary of terms you'll hear in class, on social media, and within our community. Think of it not as vocabulary to memorize, but as a poetic map back to yourself.
A Glossary of Our Movement Magic
Movement that begins with sensation, not aesthetics. We explore what the body feels, not just what it looks like. This is yoga guided by your nervous system, not a pose or a shape.
Benefits:Â Increases body awareness, soothes the nervous system, improves mobility, and helps release stored stress or emotion.
Connective tissue lines that weave through your body in diagonal spirals. They support your posture, guide your movement, and store so muchof your history ~ physical and emotional.
Benefits:Â When activated, these slings help you move with grace, power, and efficiency. Think: less effort, more ease.
A spiral-based warm-up sequence used in every Wildflower class. Think fascia flossing: twisting, reaching, rocking, and spiraling to wake up your system.
Benefits:Â Improves hydration in your connective tissues, gently warms your joints, and builds a relationship between breath and motion.
A gentle, spiraling posture: one hand behind your neck, the other wrapped behind your lower back. Add a soft twist and some breath, and it becomes a moving meditation.
Benefits:Â Opens the front body, encourages spinal mobility, and supports emotional release.
