Katalyst Move

Breathe, Move, Live


"Breathe (with ease) move (with efficiency) live ( with compassion). Our intention is to make a difference. Patience is our test, our isolation is our gift. Minimise plans and expectations. Use what is here now to connect with the world. One moment, one breath, one step at a time."- Karl Durrant (Founder and Facilitator)


In exploring limitation, self-acceptance provides a platform for expanding potential. Katalyst Move provides a physical and emotional forum to explore the self through martial, somatic and bodyweight drills.

Movement and Awareness Training

The world lives outdoors and provides all the resources required to build awareness, ability and skills, enhancing the natural resilience that we already possess. Katalyst Move training sites provide the necessary environments to explore mobility, co-ordination, psychological drills promoting well being and personal safety.

Sessions are relaxed and informal to allow learning to be absorbed in a safe, controlled environment. Loose clothing (e.g. tracksuit, long-sleeved t-shirt) is recommended to maximise freedom of movement. Awareness of personal hygiene is essential. Sessions will begin by focusing on solo breathing, movement, relaxation and structure in preparation for movement, locomotion and partner based exercises.

Karl Durrant

With 15 years of martial and movement disciplines, I discovered that movement is the currency of connection. Learning and instructing Aikido, Tai-chi, and Russian martial arts provided stepping stones into a deeper personal movement practice. A practice of playful and explorative exercises that bridge the physical and emotional self. Deepening my habit to build good habits I actively participate in training programs from disciplines of animal locomotion and bodyweight exercise to expand deeper understanding of my somatic self.
