Why we created SOMOVA

We are Clara & Simon, Founders of SOMOVA.

Our individual journeys of inner healing brought us to a shared exploration of how deeply interconnected the mind, body and spirit really are, and how important it is to work with all of these levels.

Our paths crossed through a shared journey of healing, exploration, and a deep curiosity about what it truly means to hold space for others. 

Working within the breathwork and holistic space, we witnessed the profound impact these practices can have. We also began to recognise a gap.

Many facilitators across breathwork, bodywork, coaching, movement, and healing spaces are taught powerful tools to support others, yet are rarely given the foundations needed to truly hold transformation with safety, presence, integrity, and nervous system awareness.

This question became the foundation for SOMOVA.

We created SOMOVA as a space dedicated to bridging trauma-informed practice, somatic awareness, nervous system regulation, embodied self-inquiry, and relational attunement.

Through daily practices, inner work, and experiential learning, we support practitioners to develop the capacity to safely hold transformation, first within themselves, and then for others.

At the heart of our work is a simple belief: 

The body is not something to fix. It is something to listen to.

Through breath, movement, touch, and deep presence, we cultivate the conditions for greater awareness, regulation, and connection, supporting a way of living and facilitating that is more embodied, grounded, and human.
