2012 SCHEDULED WORKSHOPS

Restoring Somatic Function

Deeper than exercise, Hanna Somatics targets the muscular patterns of stress, anxiety and injury that get stuck in all of us over time (we experience this as the aging process). The subtle movements engage your brain to receive sensory stimulation and restore muscle function.  You will be lying on the floor with your eyes closed as you are guided through slow, simple movements.  The less effort you use, the more you will achieve.  No stretching or force is involved.  Beneficial for all fitness levels.  You will:

• Relax Tight Back, Neck and Shoulder Muscles
• Rediscover Your Spine and Your Waist
• Release Stress and Anxiety
• Improve Breathing
• Expand Flexibility
• Relieve Pain

And…learn a brief movement routine to serve you throughout life
