A series of Yoga workshops with a Rolfing® perspective.
These workshops are open to all, you can come as a total beginner or as a seasoned yogi. Everything is adaptable to work for you if you are recovering from injury or working with a restriction or in peak health. The material I share may be of use to you in developing a personal practice, understanding your own body better or for developing your work if you are a body-worker, dancer, musician, martial arts practitioner, yoga or movement teacher. It can often be counted as CPD for yoga teachers, check with your professional membership organisation.
January 19th – Diaphragm, discover ways to differentiate the chest and abdomen and feel all the differing ways to breathe and feel buoyant and uplifted, rested and peaceful.
February 9th – Foot Focus. Take some time to explore the delicate mobility of the feet and the powerful forces that move through them. They are extremely adaptable and versatile, we can learn to use them better to support and propel us through life.
March 9th – IT band, hips and side ribs. A deep dive into the structure of the sides of the body from top to toe. Opening awareness of these areas gives a whole new perspective on stability, ease and power in sitting, standing and moving.
April 13th – Pelvic floor and abdominal pressure. What is the normal function of these areas of the body and how does our movement training disrupt or enhance it?
May 11th – psoas, connect legs to torso and feel free to move from a source of huge power located deep in the body.
June 8th – The power of a connected back. Opportunities to use our backs in a fully integrated fashion may be diminishing in modern life. Feel your way towards a more cohesive experience for improved strength and pain-free movement.
July 13th – head case! Fascial structures of the head, and particularly the jaw, influence all aspects of our movement and postural patterns. Unwind tensions and holdings in the head to experience full body changes towards equilibrium and freedom of movement.
September 14th – Diagonally. Movements crossing over the mid-line provide contra-lateral stability and strength, better co-ordination, balance and brain function. And it feels joyful to move this way!
October 12th – Integration. What did Dr. Ida Rolf mean by using the term ‘structural integration’ and to what extent is this derived from or related to ideas in Hatha Yoga.
November 9th – Horizontals. What techniques could we use to seek balance in horizontal structures of the body (floor of the mouth, diaphragm, pelvic floor, inner knee joint….etc)? and what happens when that balance occurs?
