Bio

I’m Juan Pedro, a wellness coach offering a unique somatic movement ecosystem in Sydney. My work integrates Feldenkrais (awareness, restorative), Yoga/Calisthenics (body mechanics, vitality), and Capoeira (dance, musicality). A holistic approach to movement so that we can cultivate a deeper bond with ourselves, connect with others and enjoy more this beautiful planet.

I'm certified Awareness Through Movement® practitioner and a Capoeira Angola Social Educator. I’m currently delivering Feldenkrais and Capoeira programs. And I’m also continuing my studies in Feldenkrais to become a Functional Integration® practitioner. Broadening my knowledge in a space I love.

Feldenkrais

Is a universal method for improving movement, sensation, posture and breathing. These improvements can be directed towards assisting problems like pain, injuries and neurological issues, as well as assisting peak performance in sports and the performing arts.

I’m a Feldenkrais practitioner with around ten years of personal practice in the method. In January 2024, I commenced formal studies with the Feldenkrais Institute Australia, and I’m currently a Certified Awareness Through Movement® practitioner.

Capoeira Angola

Is an Afro-Brazilian art form that combines culture, music, movement. It’s a way of living, rooted in individual freedom, respect, cooperation, and joy. Thus, empowering individuals to grow and flourish within society.

With Mestre Roxinho & Institute Bantu I learned how the practice could be a resource for social justice, a method to heal trauma, a tool to empower and help people thrive.

Capoeira has given me so much in my life, it fills me with pride and joy to be able to share the practice I love with the people that need it most. I am a Capoeira Angola practitioner and educator.

Over time Feldenkrais has lightened, refined my relationship with Capoeira. It has given me tools to navigate the practice’s physical intensity. Allowing me to find even more inner joy and deepen my connection with others.
