The New Rules of Posture
Why do we need new rules? The truth is the old rules – Shoulders back! Head up! – make most people feel stiff and unnatural. Healthy posture can be discovered from within, by cultivating your body’s ability to feel. In this workshop we'll share ideas about pain-free body use, including:
- How your perception of the world creates your posture
- Awareness of six key zones in your body that shape alignment
- Improving your posture by creating new sense memories
