“I
started using the information I learned in your workshop
immediately. My clients have sensed a difference. The work
is holding longer, it takes fewer sessions to get people out
of acute pain, and those with chronic pain are having longer
period with less pain and more “good” days. It
truly is a great practice builder. I highly recommend this
workshop.”

This is a four-class series that teaches a full body
approach for correcting the structural misalignments that
create pain and joint degeneration and greatly disturb
equilibrium, balance and integrated movement.

3-Day
Class on the Pelvis
|
|
This
class will look at the different patterns tilt and shift,
symmetry and asymmetry that can be found with the pelvis.
We will see which patterns are functional and which are
dysfunctional for each unique structure. There will be a
strong emphasis on various ways to "see" and to understand these
patterns. We will cover the significant anatomy of the
hips, sacrum and pelvic floor. The
techniques for correcting the dysfunctional patterns are both
with direct connective tissue reorganization and movement
reeducation. We will integrate the changes made in the
pelvis to the legs and lumbar spine. This is the first
class in a series of four classes. The classes need to be
taken in order but can be taken in different locations. |

3-Day
Class on Legs and Arms
|
|
This
class will build on the information from the Pelvis Class.
We look at how the dysfunctional patterns in the pelvis also
involve dysfunctional alignment at many of the joints of the
legs and feet. We will use what we learn in the legs
to help assess and reorganize the arms and hands. Even with
well integrated structures, counter-rotations can occur at
any of the joints in the appendicular body. Both direct and
indirect techniques will be shown.
The Pelvis Class is a prerequisite for the
Shoulder Girdle class. |

3-Day
Class on the Shoulder Girdle and Thorax
|
|
This
class will continue the exploration of asymmetrical
patterns. We will look at tilt and shift in the shoulder
girdle. We will also look at other components of the thorax
that prevent full balance and integration in the upper
body. We will work with the upper ribs in relationship to
the clavicles and integration into the neck. We will
also learn important techniques for releasing the upper
plural fascia.
Fundamental to this class will be
an understanding of the
relationships between asymmetrical patterns in the pelvis and
shoulder girdle and, as well, curvatures of the spine. Our goal in this class will be to understand patterns as
part of an integrated whole. Learning to resolve these
patterns in the entire body at once vastly increases the
effectiveness of any specific work and creates a profound
level of balance and integration.
The Pelvis and Legs and Arms Classes are prerequisites
for the Shoulder Girdle & Thorax Class. |

4-Day
Class on the Back and Neck |
|
This class is an opportunity to
learn a soft tissue approach to spinal biomechanics.
Misalignments of vertebrae in the spine and neck
follow consistent, predictable patterns in relationship with
asymmetries throughout the body. Several soft tissue
techniques will be taught for releasing the rotational
patterns prevent integration and that can produce acute and chronic back and neck pain.
The three-dimensional anatomy and spinal biomechanics
involved in asymmetrical patterns will be
taught. Students will learn both direct and indirect myofascial techniques to work with scoliosis, lordosis,
kyphosis, whiplash and other fixations responsible for
spine, rib, and neck problems.
The Pelvis, Legs and Arms & Shoulder
Girdle Classes are prerequisites for the Back and Neck Class. |

“The
information presented and the supervision were both excellent.
This class helped me tremendously on both personal and
professional levels. I highly recommend it to anyone
interested in expanding their understanding and skill in
treating asymmetries in the pelvis, shoulders and spine.”

Advanced Biomechanics Classes |
|
Three 2-day classes on more sophisticated approaches for
resolving misalignments and creating more lasting and
profound structural integration. |
|
Working with AA/PP Patterns -
A class to
further your understanding of the logic and profound
impairment of these dysfunctional asymmetries. You
will learn how not to create these patterns in the course of
your SI work. You will learn to assess the exact
locations these patterns are held and how to design a
session to eliminate the AA/PP dysfunction. |

Using Indirect Work -
In this
class you will learn how to use the mid-tide and long tide
to assess fascial rotations, joint alignments and trauma
locations. You will learn a technique for comparing
restriction sites to determine which is primary and which
are secondary. You will also learn to use indirect
techniques to release trauma and long held
restrictions to realign deep tissues. |

Cranial Patterns in
Asymmetries -
The cranium responds to
asymmetric patterns with predictable rotations and counter
rotations. If this is not able to occur, then there can be
significant problems with alignment throughout the cranium,
jaw and upper neck. You will learn to assess the position
of the major bones of the cranium and how to use direct and
indirect techniques to release and realign the fascia of
this very important region. |
