The MELT Sessions: 4 weeks Exploring the Body in Motion

Based on Miranda's popular weekly MELT class, this Course takes things a little deeper over four weeks.

Each week we'll travel along a different fascial line — the long chains of connective tissue that run through the body like slings, linking muscle to muscle.

These are often where tension quietly

gathers, sometimes far from where you actually feel it.

We'll explore the lines themselves, but

just as much how they feel — and how they can shape not just the body, but how we see and react to the world around us.

Fascia isn't separate from muscle — it's a continuous web running through the whole body, and where it forms long chains, we call them fascial lines. Pull one end and you'll often feel it somewhere else — tight calves showing up as a stiff lower back, say.

This is the FAMO thinking behind the sessions: rather than isolating one muscle, we work the whole line, combining

movement and self-massage so the tissue can soften and reorganise naturally.

Expect a mix of qualities across the four weeks — moments of yielding and surrender, and

moments of dynamic, springy movement. It's less about stretching and more about discovering how tissue shapes the way you move.

Throughout the four weeks you'll start to notice these lines really do cross over and connect with one another — but for focus, we're structuring each week around one specific line at a time, as a way of presenting the body more clearly.

Week 1 — Superficial Back Line

Up the entire back, from soles to scalp. We'll work the feet, backs of the legs and spine —

releasing what gathers there from standing, walking, and holding ourselves upright all day.

Week 2 — Superficial Front Line

Up the front of the body, from feet to skull. We'll work through the shins, quads, hip flexors and abdomen — tissue often tightened by sitting and screens. Expect more length through the front of the body and an easier breath.

Week 3 — Lateral Line

Down each side, ear to ankle — keeping us stable side-to-side. Focus on the outer hip, ribs and obliques, essential for balance and rotational movement.

Week 4 — Spiral Line

A favourite for anyone who's done Garuda — it wraps diagonally around the body, linking

opposite shoulder and hip, and gives us our springy, coiled quality in walking, throwing and twisting. Freeing it up builds rotational strength and coordination — and simply feels wonderful.

These four lines are just a starting point — a rounded journey through the body's front, back, side and spiral.
