The Art of Joyful Movement: Alexander Technique and Pavanmuktasana

with Hope Mell, RYT 500, ATT

August 30 - September 2, 2019

Joyful Movement is a powerful practice that changes the way you move and alleviates pain and discomfort. Combining the principles of the Alexander Technique with the age-old practice of Pavanmuktasana (the Joint Freeing Series), this workshop offers a revolutionary approach to easeful movement. Learn transformative techniques that have helped those suffering from physical pain and limited mobility find relief.

The Alexander Technique will enable you to find your natural balance, see the connection between your thinking and movement, and create change in your life. When complemented by Pavanmuktasana to efficiently rehabilitate your joints, you will discover the secret to transforming your body and mind.

Hope Mell draws on her three decades of study and experience, guiding you through an easy approach to change.
