Core Power: Anatomy in Clay Workshop

The ability to walk on two legs is an evolutionary “giant leap” that distinguishes human beings from every other vertebrate life form on the planet.  Just what does it take to make this dramatic shift from a horizontal posture to a vertical one?

The Core Power workshop will use a combination of the Zahourek system of three-dimensional Anatomy in Clay and active exercise to explore the muscles of core stability. 

For the beginner as well as the pro, this is a fun, effective and accurate way to learn anatomy from the inside out.  Participants will experience muscles taking shape beneath their fingertips as they build them in clay on their own model of the human skeleton, then experience the action of each through various exercises, stretching and poses.

This 3-day course is excellent for health care professionals, Pilates and Yoga teachers, personal trainers, massage therapists, artists, and anyone with an interest in gaining an intuitive understanding of the pivotal role Core Power plays in upright posture, movement & health.
