This is part 2 of the workshop, Just Hanging Around, designed to develop our ability to hang from our arms. In this class we work on more exercises for both mobilizing and stabilizing our parts to make our hanging more efficient as well as introducing Natural Movement techniques for swinging and climbing.
Read MoreFinding the coordination to stabilize the core as you move your hips will not only save you from strain in the lower back and develop better hip flexibility, but it will also give you better balance.
Read MoreA common adjustment for better "posture" is often to lift the chest.
In this class, we'll identify a healthier alignment of the ribs in relation to the pelvis and then explore some movements to help this adjustment become our new normal.
Immobility and tension in the hips can pull on the spine whenever you need to move on the legs thereby putting unnecessary wear and tear on the spine. AND not knowing how to keep the hips stable when the spine needs to move can keep the tissues of the trunk stiff and unmoved. So in this class we look at the difference of moving the spine and hips both together and separately. EQUIPMENT NEEDED: Block (or book or blanket) and a strap.
