"Jonathan is an extraordinary practitioner, bringing sensitivity and technical skill in natural movement and land-based embodied training. He leads with generosity, carefully supporting others to discover and liberate their potential to move through the environment with confidence, offering an important remembering to our essential animal body."

Henry McGrath, Co-Director of Eden's Cave

"I attended an outdoor workshop with Jonathan after 2 years out of the creative industry.

​

Jonathan provided a safe and fun space to explore movement in the great outdoors. As a teacher, he is very welcoming and encourages the participants to let go of any inhibitions to push the boundaries of movement in a new and ever changing environment.

​

I thoroughly enjoyed learning with other creatives, and really look forward to the next workshop!"
