You’re still standing, though life dealt you a tricky hand.
But … you’re struggling to move forward.
I help people recognise their patterns, have more options to choose from
and take grounded action once more.
Life and Movement Coach (NLP and Feldenkrais) in Christchurch
You want to feel at home in your own body again and:
- you’re managing day-to-day after a health crisis or difficult experience, but your body still holds the tension
- your feel stressed and your body often freezes with overwhelm, and you find it hard to think with clarity or make decisions
- you have physical pain or tightness that doesn’t seem to budge
- you need something on top of talk therapy
- you’ve tried a lot of things and want change that lasts
Move Beyond Habit – 3-session package
Investment: $315 (price goes up in September)
Three sessions to shift what hasn’t shifted yet.
You’ve been managing. You know your patterns, at least some of them. But knowing hasn’t been enough to move you forward. These three sessions work at the level where the pattern actually lives; in the stories and language and in what the body holds. What happens? You leave with more options than you came in with. You get choice, instead of stuckness.You get a combination of:
- Talk coaching (NLP)
- Movement awareness processes (Feldenkrais and Embodiment Coaching)
- Personalised practices you can do between sessions if requested
My approach is a unique mix. I’ve been coaching people since 2019. I’ve navigated my own crises (grief, loss, trauma) over the past two decades. I know what it’s like when your body won’t cooperate with your mind. That’s why I do this work.
Does this sound like you? Let’s talk.

How it works
As a Feldenkrais practitioner and coach, I work with you using words when you enter and leave the room, and your nervous system through slow, attentive movement, helping your body and brain recalibrate. What we are doing is learning, and rewiring your system so that you have more choices and potential. I function alongside both talk and physical therapy, and other movement practices. My work is a complement to them.
“Jane is a good listener and seems to have a natural ability to heal that I cannot explain. Her hands are warm and nurturing. Each session left me feeling refreshed and my body feeling better than when we started.”
Tess
Programmer
“My balance isn’t what it used to be after cataract surgery last year. I felt wobbly on my feet. After our first session I was more confident going down the stairs. I also left with three simple, practical things I can use in life to make me more comfortable. And, Jane has good hands. I felt totally safe with her.”

“I didn’t expect that moving differently would change how I think about my choices. How I can decide and know deeply what I need and to trust that. Her work is very effective and works on the mind as much if not more than the body… my body just responded. “

Self research in a friendly, safe, group setting
I also work with people recovering from injury, managing chronic pain, or those wanting to refine their movement for performance or sport. Come learn about yourself with others.
Come to an Awareness Through Movement lesson. This is a slow gentle manner of deconstructing your unique movement patterns and habits, so you can piece them back together with awareness and using more of yourself. You move towards increased self knowledge in this engaging head, heart hand process, which is not demonstrated but guided through words.

About Jane Hardjono
I’ve experienced traumatic loss, carrying our middle child to full term knowing for the most part she might only live a short while. Ivy eventually died, in fact on the day before she was born. This experience taught me how to hold space for people navigating reproductive loss, infertility, and the grief of a life that looks different than they imagined. I’ve also lived for long periods in three different countries. Because of that I need to feel at home in my body first, before a new land can feel like home.
Accepting that loss is part of life, understanding the nature of change and suffering, being able to progress in life, and learning to do that through movement, has been such a rewarding experience for me that I wanted to bring back an ease of being in one’s body to other people.
I am a certified Embodiment Coach (Embodiment Unlimited), Transformational Life Coach (NZ Life Coaching) and Feldenkrais practitioner (New Zealand Feldenkrais Guild) and Somatic Writing Coach. I run group lessons throughout Christchurch and online, and provide coaching sessions and individual movement treatments to individuals.
