Somatic Movement Therapy involves working with clients to improve physical
function and holistic expression in movement and life. The key goals of
Martha Eddy's Dynamic Embodiment Movement Therapy Training (DE-SMTT) are embedded
in Eddy's "cycle of intervention" which is a therapeutic model of effecting
change in health and lifestyle through observation, support and exploration.
Martha Eddy and other renowned faculty teach DE-SMTT through Moving On Center
in California, in Massachusetts, and in NYC. Eddy has carefully combined
principles of Body-Mind Centering© (BMC) and Laban Movement
Analysis (LMA) as well as her own to create a practical approach to
individualized therapeutic practice and performance enhancement. This
program teaches how to use Eddy's systems of Dynamics of Touch©,
Dynamic Movement, Dynamic Health© and Dynamic Embodiment©. Discussion
also centers on larger global issues that limit peace and community building,
and how to foster creative solutions to engage in community wellness.
The DE-SMTT is an approved training program of the International
Somatic Movement Education and Therapy Association.
DE-SMTT students can also gain academic credits in Somatic Psychology or Interdisciplinary graduate studies if matriculated with Santa Barbara Graduate Institute and the State University of New York/Empire State College.
