Jan 24 & 25 | Anatomy with Dr. Jeremy Brook
Foundation and Bony Infrastructure with an emphasis on the spine.
Saturday 11:30am-6pm | Sunday 11am-2pm | $150
This module (the first of two) will focus on The Science of Biomechanics of the bones and the joints.
- Learn what normal alignment looks like based on the science of alignment.
- Learn about the 4 curves of the spine. Honor its intricate design to maximize the expression of postures while decreasing abnormal wear and tear. Work with the body instead of battling against it.
- Explore the “Black Holes” of the body with special attention to transitional zones. A new emphasis will be placed on transitional areas (occipito-atlantal, cervico-thoracic, throraco-lumbar, lumbo sacral). These areas are commonly neglected and can create dysfunction in the pose.
- Finish the workshop with a 2.5 hour scientifically designed full body vinyasa lubrication practice.
Put it all together as we go on an anatomical journey exploring every joint in the body.
