The Love of Movement

The Love of Movement Method is a culmination of Lila Heller’s 20 years of studying mindbody practices which include, Pilates, Yoga, Breathwork, Applied Neurology and from working one on one with her clients. When we move and breathe better, we feel better. 

The Love of Movement Method is for the novice and expert mover. This method teaches you how to retrain your habitual ways of moving and being in the world. It is an eye opening method (literally) that uses the latest brain science along with mobility and mindful strength to improve confidence, posture, balance, a feeling of well-being and excitement for living. The Love of Movement Method aims to break down the myths that surround “working out” as hard and off limits after a certain age. This method merges the physical, spiritual and brainy bits into a playful and accessible methodology.

As Lila so fondly states,”It’s all the body, all the time.”

Retreats

Retreats offer you the ability to escape from the daily rush of life and reset and connect with community. We need three main components to living a balanced life: connection to self, connection to others and connection to nature. Through gathering on retreat each of these components is met, everyday. It is my honor and pleasure to guide you to experience ease in your body, mind and spirit through re-connecting and remembering who you are. You'll escape the hustle of daily life in order to rediscover what's important. In community, nature, and fully nurtured, these retreats are my gift to you.
