The story of
Moving Fascia
The Moving Fascia® method applies self-release tools and movement techniques designed to soften unnecessary tension, restore mobility and elasticity and improve strength through whole body integration.
Ana Barretxeguren created Moving Fascia through her extensive experience as a movement educator and her clinic practice as a Myofascial Release and Visceral manipulation practitioner.
Her commitment to help people recover from injury through healthy movement led Ana to develop a method that is based on the latest scientific research on connective tissue, and the way fascia impacts our movement.

Try it freeHi, I’m Ana Barretxeguren,
creator of Moving Fascia®
I am a movement specialist, Pilates teacher and myofascial release practitioner. My practice explores the fluid and transformative quality of breath and movement.
Through self-enquiry, a passion for anatomy and my extensive work helping people recover from injury, I have created Moving Fascia®.
I believe that anatomy needs to be experienced through the felt sense, so I developed a programme in which we explore the fascial architecture through theory, embodiment, self-myofascial release and movement techniques.
I suffer from catamenial pneumothorax, a rare condition where I experience repetitive lung collapses. This has led me to a continuous investigation of fascia, focusing on the visceral space and its connections to breath and movement.
My passion for anatomy has led me to study Anatomical Sciences at an academic level
I hold a Postgraduate Certificate in Anatomical Sciences from the University of Edinburgh and have over 500 hours of human dissection research in the dissection lab.
I have extensive clinic practice as a Myofascial Release and Visceral manipulation practitioner and have been an educator in various Pilates teacher trainings for the past 12 years. I founded Evolve Movement Education in 2013 and I am the owner of Brighton Pilates Studio, a Pilates and health centre in Brighton, UK.
