Fascia is the missing element in fitness training. After many years of being the 'Cinderella' of body tissues, new research into the fascinating role of our body's sinews has revealed new strategies for building our 'fascial body' to balance the strength and tone we are bringing to the muscular tissues in training.
This one-day course, designed for the personal trainer, fitness coach, Pilates, yoga or martial arts instructor, brings together a rich diversity of new images of fascial dissections and research findings to understand the surprising and integrative role of fascia in force transmission, injury, and repair. The day will include demonstrations and practical applications shown to produce maximum strength and resilience and to prevent injury (most injuries are connective tissue injuries).
See and feel the various layers and types of fascial tissue and understand how ‘sensori-motor-amnesia’ can rob us of our full potential, and how all the fascial tissues ‘hang together’ to make total body movement.
