Eric’s work has impacted me in both subtle and profound ways. I honestly believe his somatic practices are evolutionary - the simple practice of contraction and opening, consciously bringing breath to the places that have been stuck or unrecognized for too long. His work is soft and heart centered and also straight to the point. I was moved to tears from being able to touch places inside of myself that needed my attention for a long time.

I had been practicing Feldenkrais for a while before discovering Eric’s work and he opened a new door in my practice and healing. He has been so generous with his time and energy, I am beyond grateful and will continue to work with him.
I have been struggling for many years with health issues.
I was interested in Somatic exercises and found Eric on Youtube.
