Somatic Exercises for Supple Shoulders and Happy Hips (featuring Scapula Scoops)

Most of us have strived to unlock the mystery of our shoulders or our hips, perhaps struggled to untie their knots and regain their fluidity, freedom and ease we enjoyed in our youth. But far too many of us see this disappear into restricted joints, frozen muscles, and chronic pain as our desk-bound, stress-filed lives create dysfunctional movement patterns and unnecessary aging.

Swimming in All Directions

The title of this Somatics learning series is in homage to an early metaphor for Tai Chi - “Swimming in the Air.” Constrained movement of the shoulders is widespread in today’s world, and a source of genuine concern not only for Tai Chi enthusiasts, but for dancers, yogis, and athletes and fitness buffs of all persuasions. In my dual roles as long time Tai Chi teacher and Hanna Somatic Educator, I see tight shoulders almost invariably amongst students attempting to master the ancient discipline of Tai Chi, as well as in the great majority of clients who find their way to my clinic.

Functional Differentiation of the Lumbar, Thoracic, & Cervical Spine

Do you remember when you were a kid, and looking back to the rear over your shoulder while backing up your car made for such a casual gesture that you'd toss your head around without a second thought? For most folks over the age of 40 or 50 those days are long gone. If twisting to look behind now entails a more concerted effort... if turning your head to either direction has devolved from a near automatic motion into one necessarily slower and more thought-out, perhaps even a whole body affair, than this CD series is for you.
