Blanche Mulholland, originally from Scotland and now based in England, offers Somatic Alchemy workshops and retreats as well as trauma therapy for individuals and groups.

Exploring Continuum has been at the heart of her experiential inquiry into who and what we are, what moves us and orchestrates our organic unfolding and participation with life in its fullness. Her main focus is facilitating movement exploration that supports people to cultivate their embodied knowing, healing, liberation and creative expression. Weaving principles of physiological regulation and trauma healing into her work is a key focus.

Blanche earned an MA in Dance and Somatic Well-being from the University of Central Lancashire (UK), and then went on to study Peter Levine's Somatic Experiencing. She is a Registered Somatic Movement Educator/ Therapist and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner/ Assistant with a background in mental health recovery, having co-managed Lothlorien Therapeutic Community in Scotland for many years and taught on the faculty of Still Flowing Yoga Teacher Training.

Blanche's approach to teaching Continuum is centered around awakening the natural intelligence, creativity and innate healing of the body and allowing this to guide us, to reveal to us our deepest essence. She is passionate about working with the elements and in the landscape, and is informed by her many years of meditation practice, bodywork and creative movement ritual. She is guided by the work of her mentors including Peter Levine (Somatic Experiencing), Fran Lavendel (Authentic Movement), Josh Schrei (Mythic Body) and Atsushi Takenouchi (Butoh).
