This is a hands-on class where we explore the body’s naturally efficient design for movement and understand how we interfere with it through ingrained habits. We will use practical experiments to learn how to notice tightening, release muscle tension, re-establish better balance and move with ease. We will use visual, verbal and kinaesthetic (hands-on) cues to teach better movement. Participants should be able to do gentle movements of walking, sitting and lying on a mat.
