October 4–6, 2024 join us for a weekend of smart teaching & fun learning with Matt Phippen, my fave teacher! Hope you can make it. Gin
Friday, October 4, 6:00pm-8:00pm
Rib Mechanics and the Respiratory Diaphragm Optimal movement mechanics rely on a stable core. Core stability has less to do with strong abs and a “6-pack”, and much more to do with breathing, and something called Intra Abdominal Pressure (IAP). This workshop highlights proper breath and rib mechanics, and emphasizes the way breathing informs the way we move our body. It will break down complex concepts and make them easily digestible and accessible. All levels welcome.
Saturday, October 5, 10:30am – 12:30pm
Core Mechanics and the Pelvic Diaphragm The stability of your pelvis is contingent on the quality of your breath. And the quality of your breath depends on the stability of your core. This workshop highlights proper breath mechanics and pelvic floor mechanics, and emphasizes the way breathing (core) informs the way we move our body. It will deliver complex concepts in a really digestible way. All levels welcome.
Saturday, October 5, 2:00pm – 4:00pm
360 Degree Hip Mobility Learn end-range strength building techniques for the 360 degree circumference of your hips This comprehensive workshop will break down all the actions of the hip joint and offer creative, simple and effective ways to isolate these actions with intelligence and precision. Consider this work as a home practice to help you improve the way you move, on and off the mat. All levels welcome.
Sunday, October 6, 10:30am – 12:30pm
360 Degree Shoulder Mobility Learn end-range strength building techniques for the 360 degrees of your shoulders. This workshop will target the many articulations of the glenohumeral joint, as well as the shoulder girdle. We’ll explore dynamic, effective and isolated movements that increase range of motion. Consider this work as a home practice to help you improve the way you move, on and off the mat. All levels welcome.
