    The Relational Body —Peter Stuart on Somatic Intelligence and Human Potential

    What if movement isn’t something we do — but something we’re in relationship with? In this episode of Anatomical Gangster, Sue sits down with Peter Stuart, a movement educator and somatic practitioner whose work bridges fascia, emotion, and the deeper intelligence of the human body. Peter has spent decades exploring how we move, why we move the way we do, and how the stories we carry shape our physical expression. His approach blends anatomy, awareness, and the subtle art of listening to the body’s internal landscape. Together, Sue and Peter dive into: Why movement is fundamentally relational — with gravity, with environment, with emotion How fascia shapes not just structure, but perception and behavior The ways the body stores memory and how movement can unlock it What practitioners often miss when they focus on technique instead of connection How to cultivate somatic intelligence in a world that pulls us out of our bodies Why healing requires curiosity, not perfection The future of movement education and the role of embodiment in human evolution Peter’s insights remind us that the body is not a machine — it’s a living, adaptive, expressive system in constant conversation with everything around it. If this episode sparks something in you, share it with someone who loves exploring the body as deeply as we do. And make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss the rest of the 2026 season.
