UPCOMING WORKSHOPS & RETREATS
WELLNESS RETREAT AT SAKURA RIDGE
Has been cancelled due to the Pandemic. We plan to see you next year and give you a proper hug - in person!
GLUTES 101 WORKSHOP
We sit on these guys most all day every day, and yet they're supposed to be working! Of all of the muscles in the body, our glutes are one of our main sources of power and support. Countless times over the years while teaching a class or a private session, I will ask someone to fire their glutes. But, instead of their glutes firing, their low back fires or their deep hip muscles fire...and the exercise that was supposed to heal their back and their hips is now just making it worse.
You see, we absolutely need our glutes to be working optimally. The glutes act like tires on a car - they buffer us from gravity and give us the power to climb hills, walk miles and pick our kids up off of the ground. They protect our low backs and prevent hip degradation.
In this workshop, you will not only learn how to fire your glutes, but you'll also learn how to mobilize your hip joints so that your glutes can engage through broader ranges of motion. And! You will receive a handy workbook to guide and to support your home practice.
Cost:
$55
Can be paid to me directly via Venmo, cash or check.
When:
March 29, 2020
3pm - 4:30pm

SHOULDERS 101 WORKSHOP
The shoulder girdle is arguably the most complicated joint in the body. The scapulae have only one bony attachment and are therefore almost entirely dependent on muscles for support and function. The balance between the muscle complexes in the front and the back of the body have a profound affect on the health of the shoulder girdle. In this workshop, you will learn exercises that help to bring the torso back to center which in turn helps to align the shoulder girdle in neutral. Once the shoulder girdle is in neutral, refined exercises that target the rotator cuff help to stabilize the shoulder joint and protect it from future injury.
Every workshop I teach comes with its own manual to supplement your home routine.
Cost:
$55
Can be paid to me directly via Venmo, cash or check.

ABS 101 WORKSHOP
This is an all-levels workshop that will cover everything you need to know about strengthening your core. The abdominals are a complex and integrative part of our biomechanics. An ab curl might seem like a simple thing until you realize that your neck hurts and those ab curls you're doing aren't making your back feel any better...and your tummy still isn't flat.
Strengthening the abs is an integrative practice that involves five key elements: breath, pelvic floor engagement, transversus abdominus engagement, oblique engagement and most importantly - isolation. In this workshop, you'll learn all of my tips and tricks and take home a handy workbook for your home practice.
Cost:
$55
Can be paid to me directly via Venmo, cash or check.
When:

REST & REJUVENATE WORKSHOP
In this workshop you'll learn gentle yoga, fascia-based Pilates exercises and meditation/breathing exercises to restore balance to the body and mind. Stress has a profound affect on our adrenals, nervous system and muscular body. Learn how to reduce the affects of stress on your body with some easy tips and tricks you can reflect back on throughout the holiday season. Every workshop I teach comes with its own manual to assist you in your home practice.
Cost:
$55
