Description:

Jane Ellison hosted a five-day alignment workshop based on the principles of mechanical balance as they affect the skeletal and muscular systems. Sessions included a study of anatomy, basic movement and postural work, and the use of imagery to repattern neuro-muscular habits. The workshop provided techniques for protecting and preventing injuries and for increasing ease and efficiency of movement.
