Jan 10 "Anti Stress/Anti Aging Workshop" addresses postural issues like sunken chest and rounded shoulders, the results of accumulated stress and/or habits of posture of dentists, body workers, musicians, computer users. When muscles are repatterned, and posture improves, so does lymphatic function, and oxygen intake.

Jan 17 "Fluid Forward Motion" is about recalibrating the brain to muscle for full movement potential in walking, running, dancing. Tom Hanna's approach takes apart the various planes of motion, changes the muscle function, and gives new intelligence and fluidity to forward motion. This is an excellent class for dancers of all kinds and athletes, but safe for all ages/fitness levels.

Jan 24 "Somatic Conditioning" combines the goals of strength building, mobilizing, and creating more intelligent movement. This class offers some new ideas to bring to the gym as well as strength building sequences done with a gentle, somatic approach. As we say in Hanna Somatics, "no pain equals much more gain!
