Serene Shoulders & Wrists
Are you sick of feeling crappy in your shoulders, wrist or neck? This workshop is a unique opportunity to get to know these body parts in a very intimate way. Every day we make choices (consciously or not) about how we move. The more compensatory our movement is, the more we create patterns that lead to pain, stiffness and problems. The more "pure" (compensation-free) our movement is, the more we create ease and health – and get to enjoy our bodies and our lives! This workshop will give you the skills you need to identify your unique shoulder movement patterns so you can quiet down what isn’t working and nourish what is! You'll learn simple, gentle shoulder movements and key mindfulness principles that will help you take good care of your shoulders for life. A handout with photos and descriptions will be provided.
Cost: $58 per session.
Purchase one or both.

Feel Fine in Your Spine
Joseph Pilates said, “You are only as young as your spine is flexible.” He was not wrong. Over time, everyone's spine gets tight in some spots. The goal of this class is to show you where your tight spots are, and give you the tools you need to loosen them up. Often people move their shoulders or head or pelvis in order to create movement in their spine. This workshop will teach you to move more "purely" (without compensation) from your spine, so you can create or maintain spinal flexibility and health. Which means you get to feel good in your body and enjoy your life! A handout with photos and descriptions will be provided.
Cost: $58 per session.
Purchase one or both.

Happy Hips & Knees
Are you experiencing hip or knee pain? This workshop is a unique opportunity to get to know your knees, hips and ankles in a very intimate way. Every day we make choices (consciously or not) about how we move. The more compensatory our movement is, the more we create patterns that lead to pain, stiffness and problems. The more "pure" (compensation-free) our movement is, the more we create ease and health – and get to enjoy our bodies and our lives! This workshop will give you the skills you need to identify your unique hip, knee and ankle movement patterns so you can quiet down what isn’t working and nourish what is! You'll become your own best teacher in knowing how to approach exercise and movement in a way that is both kind and effective. A handout with photos and descriptions will be provided.
Cost: $58 per session. Purchase one or both.

Adore Your Core
This workshop is not a “core workout” in the typical sense. You are not going to do tons of crunches and planks or Pilates “hundreds” until your abdomen screams. This is a workshop that will start with very basic, subtle and gentle core movements so you can experience and learn about all the amazing pieces involved in the magic that is your core. Then you’ll move onto more challenging core movements with the wisdom of how to do them with the same pure, effortless integrity that you found in the simpler exercises. My goal is to teach core work as an exploration of the sensation of core and how it can be evoked with ease and integrity, as opposed to the typical gripping, striving and compensation that often accompanies core workouts. You will receive a handout with photos and descriptions of what we learned in class.
Cost: $58 per session. Purchase one or both.

This powerful system is a wonderful tool for helping you understand yourself and others, so you can more deeply understand and navigate challenging relationships for the rest of your life.
