ABOUT US
Welcome to My Little Drama & Movement Lab
A creative somatic space, founded by Irina Medun-Alimskaya - Registered Somatic Movement Therapist and Embodied Acting Coach. The project supports performers, creatives, and curious movers in reconnecting with their body’s intelligence.
Whether you're looking to deepen your practice, expand your expressive range, or rediscover forgotten parts of yourself, we invite you to step into a space of embodied exploration.
What We Offer
Individual Movement Sessions
Somatic Movement Coaching & Therapy for actors, dancers, and anyone seeking reconnection with their body’s intelligence.
Creative Workshops & Movement Labs
Group explorations in acting and expressive movement—based on Laban-Bartenieff Movement System (LBMS), somatics and artistic research.
Collaborations with Artists & Ensembles
Working with theater groups and dance studios to integrate LBMS, somatics, and embodiment into creative processes.
Why Our Work Matters
In a world that often silences the body, we create space to feel, move, and express freely.
Guided by our approach you can:
– reconnect with the parts that feel dormant or distant in your body
– feel the wholeness of your body again
– expand your movement vocabulary
– trust your body as a source of creativity
– let movement speak before words do
– explore with curiosity, not judgment
– perform without pretending, and create without pressure
Whether you're a performer, a seeker, or someone in transition—our work invites you to meet yourself differently.
What do people say
I always leave Irina’s classes feeling genuinely happy—something my husband noticed even before I did. These gatherings offer more than just social connection: they create space to open up, witness others doing the same, and grow together. I learn by watching others transform and feel joy for myself and for them.
Masha, Amsterdam
New connections became real friendships. I stepped beyond rigid boundaries and encountered moments that made me reflect on my own inner stiffness.
Anna, Amsterdam
I came looking for a break from the daily hustle—and found much more. These sessions helped me reconnect with my inner child and engage parts of myself I rarely use in my work. I gained meaningful emotions, insights, and met fascinating people. If you’re looking to reconnect with yourself, this is a powerful space.
