Off the mat • Fiona Flecken • Somatic Practice

17/08/2026

I asked AI what Little Roots might look like and somehow it came pretty close to what I have in my head. (I prompted my vision very detailed). 🌱

Moving, exploring, feeling, noticing, breathing, resting… and probably a good amount of chaos in between.

Mostly, I want to create a space where kids can stay curious about their bodies, emotions and needs, and collect a few things along the way that might support them in everyday life.

But apparently, AI also thinks I’ve been working really hard on my arms lately. 💪 😉

The course will start on Monday, 7th September at 4.30pm.
A few spots are left.

🌱 Any questions or not sure that this is the right course for your kid? Please feel free to message me via WhatsApp at 79520661.

This one has been sitting in the back of my mind for a long time.

Before my work moved more and more towards stress, somatics and nervous system support, I spent quite some time working with pregnancy yoga and mama + baby yoga. And I always loved working with that very honest, curious energy that comes with having little humans in the room.

Then, not too long ago, I had a private mama + kid session in the studio. We moved, explored, played, talked about the body and simply followed what was interesting in the moment.

And afterwards I thought: okay, I think it’s time.
So for the first time, I’m officially opening my space to the little ones. 🌱

Little Roots is a 6-week body-based wellbeing + yoga course for children aged 4–7.

It’s not about teaching children that they need to be calm. And it’s not about sitting still and doing everything “right”.

We’ll explore what it actually feels like to have a body.

🌱What happens when I’m angry, excited, nervous, tired or frustrated?
🌱How does my breathing change?
🌱What feels good when everything gets a bit too much?
🌱Do I want to move, shake, squeeze something, make noise, breathe, rest or have some space?

We’ll use movement, breath, sensory play, simple body awareness, creativity and plenty of curiosity to explore all of that together.

And every week, the kids will collect some of the things we discover in their own Little Roots folder — including little tools and sensory ideas they can take home and try for themselves.

🌱 Starts Monday, 7th September
4.30 PM · 45 minutes
6 weeks · ages 4–7
Small group in San Ġwann
€75 for the full course

I’ve wanted to bring this part of my work to life for such a long time, so it feels pretty special to finally put Little Roots out into the world.

And I’m very curious to meet my first little group. 🤎

...that pure happiness and joy of seeing an orca in its natural habitat. 🫍

(And not having a phone in my hand, but taking a mental picture of this once in a lifetime moment.)

i’m so overwhelmed by this social media game. Find a good hook, a trending audio, create a perfect video, write the on-point caption, share knowledge (…but not too much), show your face and speak into the camera, and make it look like “i woke up like this”…all of this to promote your work, passion and love for what you do.

Honestly, this is why i opted out on this. It’s not that i want to share or feel uncomfortable doing this, but i feel distracted from what’s really matters: working with human beings as a human being.

The most human thing for me feels like writing the newsletter at the moment. 2 times per months writing from the heart and it never feels hard to find a topic to write about, do some research, share knowledge.

What about you?
Do you feel the same?
How do you handle the social media game as a small business owner?
