Have you tried everything and nothing helps to take away your…
Body tension, achiness, feeling unbalanced, difficulty walking, difficulty with breathing, chronic pain, muscular issues, back pain…
​
Would you try a gentle form of exercise to help you rid yourself of unwanted aches and pains?

If that’s you, then you might like to come to our release & unwind workshop, where we will take you step by step through a series of brain and body muscle release movements.  It’s simple, and it works!

Hanna Somatic Education helps you learn how to release tight muscles.  Muscles that are held tight due to stress, trauma, pain and an inability to truly relax.  Using slow, gentle movements and sensory feedback, and a technique called “pandiculation”, you can reset the resting length of your muscles, so that you then have full use of the muscle.  This is different from stretching because you are not holding your muscles in a taught state.  Stretching will only release the muscle temporarily due to its elastic like reflex called “the stretch reflex”.  Use your brain to voluntarily control your movements and invariably a whole lot more!

Please note: Bring your own yoga mat and large blanket to go over your mat.
Water or Tea and a snack will be provided.
Investment: $65 + hst
