About me: 

Sonia Pastrovicchio is a dedicated movement educator and therapist specializing in supporting children with special needs through an innovative and integrative approach. 

Born in Rivoli (TO), her lifelong passion for movement began at the age of five through dance, evolving into a deep fascination with the connection between movement, learning, and well-being.

Her desire to explore movement beyond traditional dance led her to the Feldenkrais Method in 2015, where she discovered how mindful movement could enhance adaptability, self-awareness, and neurodevelopment. 

She became a certified Feldenkrais practitioner and later specialized in the Jeremy Krauss Approach (JKA), refining her skills to work with children with special needs.

Drawing from her background in dance and contact Improvisation, Sonia developed Functional Playground™—a unique approach that blends Feldenkrais, JKA, and improvisational movement to create playful, sensory-rich experiences that foster harmony, security, and a sense of freedom in children. 

Through gentle yet profound interactions, she helps children develop coordination, communication, and confidence in a way that feels natural and empowering.

Her expertise has led her to international collaborations, where she conducts intensive movement sessions, helping children and their families unlock new possibilities for growth, learning, and joy.
