Description

Embodied Philosophy of the basic developmental efforts 

YIELD- PUSH-REACH-PULL

We learn relationship through our movement engagements as babies - these patterns are laid down into the physiology of the muscles and coordination of the spine and brain - even our prediction centers in the brain rely on these grooves. What if, though, we did not learn all the ways we can interact with the world then? Do you tend to work hard and push your way into solutions? Do you dream and effortlessly reach beyond your current place? Do you hesitate? Are you ever feeling confident in yourself as you negotiate change and as you engage with other people?

The Yield, Push , Reach and Pull cycles offer huge potential for you to find new ways of interaction without strain, stress or doubt. These are the KEYSTONES of embodied action! Join us for 5 classes starting Feb 3, 2021
