MELT workshop: MELT your core

Have you been doing traditional core exercises but your back still hurts and your belly has not gotten flatter? MELT Core might be the answer.
MELT works with your connective tissue and nervous system to provide upright support for your spine and organs…which is what your core is really supposed to do! Common aches and pains disappear when the connective tissue is hydrated. Hydrated tissue is also more supportive, so your muscles work better, your organs detox more efficiently, and you feel great.

This workshop will introduce you to the basic MELT Core program, including MELTing the ribs, and pelvis, decompressing the lower back, and releasing the neck.

All participants will receive a printed “MELT Map” to take home containing all the exercises, illustrated and with detailed instructions.
MELT Your BodyFit!

All are welcome, and no previous experience is required.

MELT Workshop: MELT your legs

Do you have tight hamstrings that never seem to release? Do you have frequent foot cramps? Do your knees or hips hurt? Are you training for a marathon? Or are you just hoping to climb yourstairs without pain?

Bones for Life® Introductory Workshop

Bones for Life® (BFL) is an exercise program created by Ruthy Alon, senior trainer in the Feldenkrais® Method, as a method for improving bone health, posture, balance, walking and preventing osteopenia and osteoporosis.

In this workshop, you will learn through movement lessons to use weight-bearing postures to teach safe transmission of force through your skeleton without causing shearing stress to vulnerable joints. The more your posture improves, the stronger your bones become. BFL uses weight-bearing in the context of proper body alignment to teach ergonomically sound ways of sitting, standing, walking.

This workshop will help you access a more efficient and effortless way of moving, restore improved posture through awareness and enhance your balance to improve overall ease of walking.
