The fascia is a densely woven fabric of connective tissue within our bodies that holds us together. It wraps around every muscle, tendon, ligament, bone and organ. When the fascia becomes tight it can inhibit movement and cause pain.
In this practical workshop you will learn about fascia, the role it plays within the body and a variety of fascia release techniques. We will use tennis balls and other props to work into all of your tight spots, releasing the fascia and getting you moving freely again.
In addition to the physical benefits, fascia release has a calming effect on the central nervous system which will leave you feeling calm and centered.
Learn to identify and address fascial stiffening, adhesions, and deep scars that can restrict movement or cause pain:
● Understand how to use tools like rollers or balls to directly target fascia while avoiding pressure on bones or tendons
● Safely practice a variety of compression holds, rolling, shearing, and oscillation or micro-movements
● Understand the best ways to incorporate fascial release techniques into a yoga class and/or how to use them to complement your yoga practice
● Feel a difference in your asana practice after fascial release and experience improved proprioception (awareness of where your body is in space)
