Roller Derby: Tension Release and Body Alignment Workshop

Join Loretta Zedella for this two hour class Jan. 20 or 22, 2012

Have you ever felt that tightness in hamstrings, shoulders, or IT Band is prohibiting your enjoyment of certain movements on or off of the mat? We'll explore these issues and more as we use foam rollers, tennis balls, bolsters, belts and blankets to release tension from the body.


How might our habits of standing, sitting, and bending lead to this tension in our body? Let’s examine many of the common alignment issues we experience. We’ll explore how sitting in front of computers, in dining chairs, and in the car can cause hips, shoulders, and neck to misalign. Once the bones line up, the muscles tendons and joints as well as vital organs can also realign for optimal efficiency. Once they align, so can our energetic system. We’ll establish our range of motion and what we can do to enhance that.

Return home with handouts and skills to practice these simple and specific realigning techniques that can lead to more ease, a higher sense of well being, and more restful sleep.

Workshops will take place on Friday evening, January 20 & Sunday afternoon, January 22. Preregistration and prepayment required. Cost is $30 before January 18 & $35 after. Please register online www.VillageYogaPowell.com or call Village Yoga: 614.484.1575.
