Three seasoned Rolf Movement® Faculty developed this virtual class to share their favorite ways of working with movement throughout the ten-series.
Using an experiential approach, some of the topics we’ll explore together include:
-
Dynamics of breathing
-
Significance of spiral motion in walking
-
Current neuroscience of movement and perception
-
Embodied anatomy and biomechanics
-
Emotion, expression and finding security.
The focus of this class is practical, time-tested tools immediately applicable in your practice. You will learn specific interventions that can be used in a variety of ways — from identifying key patterns, to developing Rolfing® strategy, to providing client homework. This class is designed to not only advance what you do, but how you do it. As you deepen your embodiment of Rolf Movement concepts, your own relationship with gravity will shift toward more efficient body-use, more refined touch, and a greater capacity for self-care.
The distance learning format and pacing is ideal for learning this information and making the tools your own. Every session, you’ll meet for 2.5 hours of interactive instruction exploring an essential movement theme with Rebecca, Pierpaola and Aline.* Between meetings, you'll have home-study to help you integrate the material through suggested practice, readings, and reflective writing. Working with a learning group over ten meetings provides ample time for questions and dialogue.
All sessions will be recorded and available to you via Canvas during and after the class completes.
