Your Inner Movement is the natural flow of vital energy (Prana or Chi) that keeps you alive and in balance. When this natural river of energy, nutrients, and flow is interrupted, we experience dis-ease—a lack of ‘ease’ in our bodies. This discomfort can manifest on different levels: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. Many approaches and healing techniques have been developed and practiced over centuries across the globe and in various cultural contexts. Most ancient traditions have always recognized the body as a whole, targeting discomfort by considering all the aspects that contribute to imbalance.

My name is Gaetano Badalamenti, and I am a Holistic Bodyworker and Space Holder. I am also a professional dance artist. Dance has been a natural part of my soul since I was 7 years old. I have worked in dance companies and productions for almost 20 years across Europe and internationally.

I have always been intrigued by the human body’s functioning in movement, and eventually became a ‘geek’ about movement (both inner and outer), health, healing, and well-being. This journey led me to become a physiotherapist in 2017, graduating from the University of Applied Sciences in Amsterdam (NL).

My interest in holistic healing has been the focus of my research, both as a dance artist and therapist. It started with a glimpse into my own healing journey, where I saw how everything in our body is interconnected. In this sense, I see myself as a bridge-maker between the scientific approach and holistic, energy-aware bodywork.

Movement, in my experience, is one of the keys to healing. It acts as a catalyst for transformation, shifting, transmuting, and spreading the inner stream of vital energy that is ever active in our systems.

We are living, breathing, dynamic organisms.

Healing Movements has landed in my heart as a way to bring MOVEMENT into our bodies, as inner and outer flow (movement) plays a crucial role in the healing journey. It supports the maintenance of balanced well-being, where all aspects of the SELF (Physical, Emotional, Energetic, and Relational) can integrate organically as one.

Healing Movements is a hub of healing approaches I’ve gathered, studied, and practiced both on myself and with others to address different aspects of the body as a whole. I offer a combination of elements that, together, may help bring you back into harmony and balance.

In individual sessions, I facilitate Somatic Bodywork through Movement , Breathwork, and Coaching.
