Hi Everyone,
Thanks so much for spending your Sunday with me learning how to Roll and Release your bodies. It was great to see lots of familiar faces from my yoga classes, yoga teacher colleagues, previous workshops, ASLIA and new faces as well. I hope you've taken away something that you easily add into your daily routines to keep your body functioning at it's best. Keep a set of balls at your desk for a quick back, hamstring or shoulder massage, or roll out your forearms. You can roll out your feet whilst standing in the kitchen doing the dishes. If you're watching TV just pick one body part to work for a few minutes, exploring the 9 rolling techniques that we explored. Roll as often as you can - a couple minutes on problem areas daily if you have time, once a week is better than not at all. You may not have the luxury of a 2 hour full body routine, so keep it small and manageable, a few minutes here and there on your tight spots is going to go a long way and also make it much easier for your massage therapist to palpate and soothe your body in between sessions.
The PDF for the 9 rolling techniques poster can be found here (for those who didn't take home a copy).
My notes for your 2 hour workshop with me can be found here. There are no images so if there was a particular move that you liked, I recommend having a look at this sheet soon so you can remember how we rolled. Have fun and explore the 9 rolling techniques on different parts of your body. Some of you were interested in my music playlist which I'm happy to share with you (you'll need a free Spotify account to listen).
You can get a free 7 minute chair massage video and keep in touch by signing up to my mailing list from this website (if the pop-up didn't appear, click this link). I occasionally post instructional videos on my Facebook page and Instagram so you are welcome to follow me there too. You'll find my next workshop schedule from the Therapy Ball Workshop tab (the next class is a 2.5 hour full body Introduction to rolling workshop on Sunday, August 5th and we will be using the Coregeous ball to massage the core (including abdominals and diaphragm) as well as the other Yoga Tune Up balls for a floor based full body massage. My host studio, Roaming Zen has set up a Facebook event and booking link).
My weekly Yin yoga classes are at Kanti yoga studio every Tuesday evening 7:45-8:45pm and although these are focused on long hold yoga postures, we do roll out 1 or 2 body areas per class to assist with the myofascial release of the Yin yoga. You are welcome to come along if you'd like some weekly maintenance for your body.
I also teach personalized work place and sporting group workshops, get in touch if you think a massage class would be fun for your colleagues. You can purchase additional therapy balls through me (they are a great gift) anytime by sending me an email, call or text.
Your honest feedback is helpful for me to keep evolving my workshops to meet your needs - you can leave anonymous feedback by filling out my feedback form, and if you enjoyed the class and are kind enough to leave a testimonial you can do this on my Facebook page.
Take care and I'm happy to be contacted personally if you have any questions,
Namaste,
Deanne
