Madeline Black Workshop!
Let’s take a deeper look at the myofascial organization of your trunk to your feet in this complimentary one-hour workshop, Defining and Discovering the Purpose of Elongation.
We’ll explore the term “elongate” that is frequently used by Pilates and other movement teachers. Elongation is not a narrowing of the body but one of expansion. It is fluid and mobile not a held position.
During this workshop we focus on better understanding the science behind applied biotensegrity movement and discover how the applied biotensegrity movements of the workshop embody the sense of elongation.
Gain a felt sense of how to elongate and learn specific resistance movements you can use on clients and your own body to create the training effect of elongation.
