Notes about the Core:

Pelvis, Chest and Head

  • This is the part of the body we call the feeling center.

  • The diaphragm moving up and down stimulates the spine. The more relaxed you are in the belly, the more power you have.

  • The chest is designed to expand and contract as you breathe, maintaining space.

Even my butternut squash is spiraling its core as I prepare to teach! LOL!

  • The movement of the ribcage is critical for your shoulder joints and for your neck.

  • The head balances directly over the chest and the pelvis, sitting on the top of the spine.

  • When your Three Body Weights support you from underneath this gives you a lot of dynamic power from behind, then your arms and legs will be completely relaxed.

… and that’s the tip of the iceberg! Join me for 5 Stages AND Awake and discover your CORE!


I hope you’ll join us for a delicious morning of movement and awakening!
