The Power of the Hip Workshop

We are excited to share with you the upcoming workshop with Caroline Feig. This workshop is the first of a 3 part series, where we will explore movement of our hips in relation to development and function. 

There are so many of us dealing with groin pain, thigh pain, and butt pain. Many of us are constantly clicking or clunking and don’t ever feel like our hip is “sitting quite right in the socket.”  Is it possible that your nagging back pain is due to inadequate hip control?   Would you like to feel more robust running or walking, or getting up from the floor?  

Caroline Feig, DPT, GCFP will lead us through exercises based off of her expertise in physical therapy and the Feldenkrais method in order to help clients learn how to engage with their hips in a healthy and painless way. All are welcome to participate!

Workshop Date & Time: Thursday March 22nd 7pm

Cost: $40, Reservation required

Workshop: Stay Pain-Free

Self-Care Secrets from a Master Bodyworker

It’s hard to see ourselves clearly. Our bodies don’t come with a user’s manual and what we call Physical Education doesn’t really teach us much about how our bodies work and how to care for them.  This class aims to fill that gap.

Working with thousands of clients over three decades of professional practice as well as with his own physical challenges, Stuart Garber has cultivated an expertise in supporting people in developing more comfort, ease and freedom in their embodied lives.

Come join us for a playful and informative experiential tour through your body-being.  We’ll explore basic practices to help you stay balanced and pain-free for the long-haul, weaving:

• Movement practices
• Self-Massage
• Breath Work and 
• Mindfulness-based heart-centered awareness practices integrating cutting edge insights from neuroscience and more

Geared for students at all levels of fitness, this class will be of special value to those seeking support in speeding recovery from accidents, illnesses and surgeries or living with chronic conditions.
