Our culture and modern lifestyle habits simply do not support good posture and healthy, happy shoulders. This leads to a lack of mobility and strength in the shoulders and thoracic spine, an inability to move functionally, and, often, to chronic tightness or pain in the neck, shoulders, and back. If you want to improve your posture and develop more healthy and functional shoulders, this workshop is for you! It will include: 

 

-       Functional movement screening to assess and guide individual shoulder mobility and stability needs

-       Mobility work to improve range of  motion in the shoulders and thoracic spine

-       Exercises to strengthen the shoulders safely and effectively

-      Breath practices to show how breath affects the shoulders and posture, and simple breathing techniques to improve posture and feel more energized

 

This workshop will teach you how to improve the health and function of your shoulders and to begin the process of improving your posture for the long term! We will begin with a functional movement screen to assess individual shoulder mobility and stability needs – Asymmetries and/or mobility and stability problems unique to you will be uncovered in the screen. We will then teach safe and effective corrective exercises to help you increase both shoulder mobility and strength. Proper breathing mechanics will be taught and practiced to affect an immediate positive change to posture and help you get more energy from your breath.

 

You will leave this workshop standing up taller, breathing more deeply, and feeling more strong and free in the neck and shoulders!
