Movement Workshops
Rehabilitate injury, improve mobility and decrease discomfort
Join us in our beautiful Selkirk studio space for a variety of movement workshops taught by our passionate health care professionals. Small classes and knowledgeable instruction work together to provide you with a supportive environment to explore movement.
Classes change regularly! Current movement workshops can be found here.
Foundations of Core Strength: For anyone who says “my core is weak”, this is your opportunity to rebuild from the ground up! Before there was plank and sit ups, your body knew how to move with a foundation of core strength and control that came naturally as a child, when balance and fluidity of movement were second nature. This workshop will help you regain those feelings!
Fascial Stretching: Fascia, the connective tissue that covers the entire body like a web and connects every bone, muscle, and organ, can be the source of much of our pain and tension. By learning to restore range of motion to the fascial lines that run through the body, you can move with more ease and less restriction.
Hip Reset: Undo the tension and pain caused by sitting. Your Kinesiologist Mischa will help you regain mobility through the front of your hips and rebuild strength and stability through the glutes and core. Put these things together and you’ll notice better posture, less low back and knee pain, and an easier time doing any and all activities!
T-Spine Mobility: Regain the natural and free movement of your spine, ribcage and neck. Many people suffer from neck, shoulder and low back pain simply because the spine can no longer move as it was built to move, so other areas start to compensate. With a combination of myofascial releases, breath training and deep fascial stretching, you’ll start to feel the ease of movement you’ve always dreamed of.
Shoulder Reset: Improve shoulder range of motion and strength to help alleviate nagging shoulder, neck and upper back pain. These classes will use a combination of mobility techniques from foam rolling to breath work to fascial stretching, and then rebuild your strength through your newfound ranges of motion. *For severe shoulder pain and immobility please contact us to determine suitability of the class.*
