Jane Basley
Movement Specialist at Bodymanoeuvres Ltd
I’m Jane Basley and I’m the founder of Bodymanoeuvres, which I set up with the simple goal of keeping people moving.
I typically work with successful professional men and women on a one-to-one basis who are looking and feeling older than they would like to and want to rediscover the superhero inside themselves.
I’ve not always done this though. My professional life started in corporate HR, as a change management consultant, and remained so for 25 plus years. My true passion however was always in the realm of physical fitness and I subsequently retrained in fitness and movement.
There have been numerous periods in my life when I was not as active as I should have been, so I fully understand the challenges in finding time to look after one’s self physically, as well as working out what is it that we need to do to remain active.
We were all born to move, and my aim is that we all live our lives to the fullest and be independent for as long as possible.
“We should see movement as an opportunity, not an inconvenience.” (Dr. Paul Batman)
