Introduction to Myofascial Release - fascia, biotensegrity and the yoga connection

About the workshop

In this workshop we will open with a somatic grounding and centering practice, then we will learn all about the fascial system, explore its properties and functionality and the concept of biotensegrity. We will then apply this knowledge to your yoga practice. 

Deirdre will guide you through myofascial release techniques you can use to get a true release of the fascial system. This practice will allow you to connect on a deeper level to yourself and you will free up your fascial system allowing space for physical and emotional release.

There will be a guided journaling practice and coming together to connect with one another, to share and reflect on our experiences during the practice.

You will leave the workshop feeling empowered with new skills and tools to release your fascia, help reduce your pain, and enhance your connection to your mindbody and your yoga practice.
