Strong & Supple Spine

Hosted by Dr. Tiffany Denny

Saturday, June 8 | 2-4pm | $60/person

Your spine is an incredible structure. It allows you to move your trunk when you need to twist or bend, and it’s part of the framework for your sturdy trunk when you need to hold steady. It tolerates and transmits a multitude of forces and motions every day, whether you’re reaching for that dog toy under the couch, moving furniture, playing your favorite sport, or rocking dancer pose. It’s easy to think of strength and mobility as mutually exclusive qualities, yet each is a component of the other! Your body needs to be able to produce force and tolerate force through various ranges of motion depending on the task at hand. Mobility is something that you can train both on and off the mat, and is a great approach to your movement work whether you want to gain strength, range of motion, or both.

In this workshop we’ll talk about what contributes to a spine that feels good and moves well, and I’ll share both specific, basic practices that you can do anywhere, as well as principles that you can apply to your chosen physical activities.

Workshop attendees will receive a written list of specific practices as well as a link to video demonstrations to help you make use of them at home.

Your instructor for this workshop is Dr. Tiffany Denny, a yoga instructor and physical therapist who has been helping people with movement for over 15 years.
