What is Solaris Strong Motion?
The Strong Motion initiate programme is a 60-day remote-training system based on iMoveFreely Muscle Energy Techniques plus strength and movement work, dance practice and mindset / habit tips. I aim to keep-to-date with the latest pain neuroscience research and will incorporate this into your programme if necessary.
It’s tailor-made to motivate people who love to dance get strong and flexible, create the practice habit of their dreams and learn to manage their aches and pains in order to continue to experience the joy of dancing!
I am a certified Biomechanics Coach, have trained in pain management through movement with Back 2 Roots and I’m working towards my L4 PT qualification.
The iMoveFreely system is different to conventional training methods in that we work through a series of assessments looking for areas to enhance in the body’s mobility and improve function using Muscle Energy Techniques designed to release and re-activate muscles, which may be working inefficiently due to our lifestyles or perhaps compensatory movement patterns trained into the body as a result of previous injury.
Whilst these techniques are not commonly known outside of clinical practice, they are not new - this specific programme has been in research for over 25 years and has been tested on thousands of people from the general public to Olympic athletes. I think it's the first time it's been used on belly dancers though so I'm really excited to see what we can achieve!

Happy Hips, Serpentine Spine & Killer Shimmies
My preferred way to work with clients is to begin in the pelvis as issues here can have effects further up and down the chain.
We will carry out a series of assessments online and I will create for you a bespoke programme of release and strengthening work in the pelvic area.
I will also show you how to truly find your core to create stability in motion and a keep your spine safe for longevity in dance and all daily activities!
If you are interested in refining your dance technique practice, we will go back to basics with hip isolations and shimmies in order to see how this movement practice can improve our dancing.
Strong Shoulders, Relaxed Neck & Amazing Arm Undulations
Although I recommend beginning this work in the pelvis, I understand that your priority may be the upper body area.
I have a variety of assessments that we can do online to look for nerve tethering, restrictions in shoulder mobility and wrist strength and mobility.
Of course, core activation will be an integral part of the programme. Hint: we won’t be doing Planks"!
Our dance technique practice will focus on fluid and elegant arm undulations and precise ribcage isolations to compliment the movement practice.
“Absolutely loved doing Charlotte's programme. I felt it helped me introduce good habits. I really value that the programme is tailored to me as a dancer, not just exercise for general fitness and health, whilst it is also addressing this. Will keep coming back to fill my cup of Solaris Strong Motion.”
