Hello, I am Ana Barretxeguren, I am the creator of Moving Fascia®, a somatic movement method that has helped hundreds restore ease, minimise pain, and enhance fluid movement and breath.
I am a movement educator and myofascial release practitioner fascinated by the transformative quality of a somatic approach and its positive impact on health. My own experience of living with catamenial pneumothorax, a rare condition of repetitive lung collapses, has led me to a continuous investigation of fascia, focusing on the visceral space and its connections to breath and movement.
“The study of embryonic origins and the cellular world of fascia can have a huge impact and relevance on how we explore the body in movement”
I hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Anatomical Sciences from the University of Edinburgh and have taught embodied anatomy to movement teachers for more than a decade. I hold a PgDip in Anatomical Sciences and was determined to find an relatable approach that would blend somatics with the latest research.
Whether you teach movement or practice manual therapy the Moving Fascia® method brings fascia theory to life, unlocking the potential of fascial connection to transform your own movement and that of your clients.
The MFF online library is a comprehensive resource for deepening your understanding of fascial theory and bringing it to life within your practice.

Moving Fascia® students often include Pilates and yoga teachers. They are usually very interested in deepening their knowledge of anatomy but are seeking a more interactive experience, that resonates deeper than reading books on their own. We also teach other bodyworkers who are already working with the fascial body but want to introduce more movement into their practice to pass onto their clients.

Tightly packed with info yet elegantly and innovatively presented. Loved the visuals!!
Very professional, beautiful images and explanations. Ana is a fabulous presenter. Content was very engaging.
The course compares very highly with any other online course that I have studied - in fact it's the best from many points of comparison. Ana's knowledge and enthusiasm and commitment shine through; the huge amount of effort invested by the the EME team to give a high quality personal experience to students is really evident. I have begun applying my learning from the course to my personal practice and it is adding new dimensions to the way that I approach my teaching. Huge gratitude to you.
Very accessible and beautifully illustrated; I was able to stay interested and did not drop out!
