Any of the FM workshops will leave you with your feet firmly balanced, your spine long and your posture buoyant and rejuvenated.
Relax your Neck and Liberate your Shoulders
Release tension from you neck and shoulders by learning imagery exercises to melt away shoulder and neck tension. Release holding patterns in the upper body, learn the experiential anatomy of the shoulder girdle, and benefit from an increased awareness of the function and interaction of joints and muscles. We will use Franklin Balls to increase circulation and touch to improve shoulder and neck motion while improving pain.
Happy Healthy Knees
In this workshop you will learn the internal structure and design of the knee joint and how it really should be used. Imagery, experiential anatomy and touch will clear the path for great overall posture and better functioning of the knees to walk, run and jump with ease.
Diaphragms of the Body
Did you know that we have more then one diaphragm in our body? We have other horizontal structures that work in synchronicity to the thoracic diaphragm to improve obviously the breath but also posture, alignment and strength of the over body. Come explore the links between the pelvic floor, knee joint, sole of the foot and the diaphragm.
Organ Movements Help Posture??
YES!! would be the resounding answer here. We will learn how the to use of touch and imagery to specific organs can change the function of muscles and joints. Learn and explore how connective tissue links muscles and organs and impacts structural support and movement. For all you teachers out there It is a great way to cue clients to improve their motion…especially if you’ve tried it all and nothing is working!
Feet for Life
Our feet carry us throughout of lives… yet are you aware of them unless there is pain? In this class learn about the amazing design of the feet and how they propel us forward, adapt to terrain and serve as a foundation and sensory organ. We will use exercise bands to strengthen the muscles of the foot and ankle to improve the efficiency of the bones, tendons, muscles and joints for standing, walking, running, and jumping.
