Episode 1 – Stabilizing Your Foundation

Join me in this workshop to understand functional movement and apply foundational movements to build strength and stability into your everyday life. You can reduce pain, discomfort, and the strain on the body by learning and applying subtle shifts to your alignment. Understand, feel, and experience your current alignment and the personal alterations to your posture needed to reestablish your innate structure of support. In this workshop, we will reconnect your foundation to move, activate your core, and engage the correct muscles to increase strength, balance, and confidence.

Episode 2 – Standing Tall

You may think you are standing up, but are you really? In this workshop, you will uncover your personal compensations, habits, and return to your innate alignment to be upright. Join me to come back into your power from your center and walk away with your chin up and confidence rising! This is a recording of the live workshop that took place on 5/19/22.

Episode 3 – Letting the Ground Come to You

Research has shown a relationship between longevity and the capacity to get up and down from the floor. If you struggle right now, join me in this workshop to safely tap into your innate functional ability to get up and down from the floor without the compensating habits taking the lead. You will not be forced to go beyond what you and your body are ready for – steps for all stages will be provided. Confidence will develop and your safe functional movement will return! This is a recording of the live workshop that took place on 6/16/22.
