POSTURAL ALIGNMENT CLASSES with Annalisa

Chronic and recurring back pain ismost often caused by misalignment of our bodies. And why do our bodiesbecome misaligned? Pain and injury cause us to change our posture and our gait patterns to avoid discomfort. Many of us live with a raised shoulder or a rotated hip, pronated feet, slumped shoulders or head forward. You name it. Those postural compensations cause other joints to go out of alignment as well. The body is one functional unit.  Treating just the site of pain might deliver temporary relief, but it does nothing to deal with the actual structural cause of it. Postural Alignment exercises help our bodies re-discover a functional posture;  a posture where our load bearing joints line up vertically and orizontally; a posture in which each muscle does the work that it was designed to do. Annalisa is a certified in the Egoscue method of Postural Alignment. She will lead POSTURAL ALIGNMENT CLASSES at the yoga center beginning this Tuesday (November 20) from 9:45-10:45 AM.
     She will also lead a STRENGTH TRAINING CLASSES on Tuesdays at 11 AM and Fridays at 8:30AM. For this class bring a couple of weights in the 5-8 pound range if you have them easily available. She will provide weights as well.
     Last but not least, she will lead small group (6 people) strength training classes at her HOME GYM. These group sessions are twice a week, by sign-up only, and cost about the same as the yoga-center
classes. Within each group, we will work on each person’s needs and limitations to develop an individualized strength training regime.  This is NOT a drop-in class. You will need to commit to attending regularly. Enrolment is limited. Email: AnnalisaV@gmail.com
