Welcome to Tune-Into-Yourself.com and the home of Franklin Method So Cal  

I've been teaching people about the MindBody Movement connection since 2002. The other term for this is Somatic movement. I practiced dance and gymnastics in childhood but was challenged by chronic pain and muscle tension as an adult. Determined to feel better. I'm certified as a Franklin Method Educator Level 2 and Guild Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner. My fascination with the intersection of mind-body and movement has led to me to also study Energy Work, Continuum, Laban/Bartenieff, and Fitzmaurice Voice as additional methods to incorporate and share. I have a passion for helping people learn how to use the mind-body-movement connection to live healthy, happy lives. I offer these somatic insights to people through clear explantions, metaphorical imagery, and vibrant felt experiences.  I'd love to speak with you more and answer questions you may have about how I can help you.   Thank you for reading and I wish you healthy days. --Tracie

I offer classes and private sessions in the Franklin Method, the Feldenkrais Method, BodyTalk, and Personal Energy Management 

Franklin Method classes focus on using imagery, metaphor, and movement to uncover healthy movement and being in your body as well as peace of mind.  It is a type of moving meditation.  I use simple, clear, interesting example to help you experience YOUR BODY and also to realize the connection how of you feel in your body is completely affected by what your are thinking and picturing in your mind.    

Feldenkrais private sessions and classes include slow movements that direct your attention to the subtlies and connections in movement and is EXCELLENT for building body awareness and increasing sensation in your body.

BodyTalk is an energy medicine that restores energetic communication in the body.  The results are amazing!!  

Personal Energy Management classes include focusing on your energetic self as well as your chakras.
