Brent Anderson Master Class Thursday Sept 25: 5-8pm
$69.00
Course Description: This workshop will focus on how optimizing the neuro-physiological state of the body increases strength and flexibility of the neuromuscular and fascial systems.
Lecture will include advanced discussion of stability of various joint complexes through the integration of the neuromuscular reflexes and various types of muscle contractions. This lecture will also take us back to Pilates’ Roots of Hatha Yoga and how “Bandhas”, defined as stiffening around a joint complex can utilize the science discussed above to enhance the quality of movement, eliminate unwanted stresses in more advanced postures and movements while developing increased strength and flexibility. We will discuss and later implement a lab pertaining to principles of strengthening, stretching and rest to optimize the body’s performance.
