Presented by Mary Bond
This workshop designed to gain body reading confidence, skill in verbal cueing, and success in creating practical and transformative movement solutions for clients. In this 3-day workshop we explore our perceptual relationship with the ground through our feet.
We will:
- study the bony articulations of the feet and the biomechanical relationships between feet, pelvis and spine
- understand the foot patterns and problems we see in ourselves and others
- discover the effects of foot mobility and support on the function of legs, hips, pelvis, and spine
- observe the effects of foot mobility and support on respiration, balance and locomotion
- learn self-help for deficiencies in our foundations
- apply new perceptions to the practice of any somatic discipline, and to daily living
