Core Awareness & Stability Practice

Try this 4-minute practice and see what you become aware of

This video is an example of how I played with my inner pelvic musculature and overall core awareness and stability. And as I explored it, it made a huge difference to my state of calm and clarity.

There's more to the core than you think

When the core is working optimally it:

Enables better motor control and coordination. It is like the orchestra of all of our parts is moving and working together more smoothly.
Facilitates adaptability which can help us to move from fast to slow, slow to fast and to quickly change directions.
Enables variability in movement, to have more than one movement strategy.
Helps us be agile. To be nimble in how we change position and direction.
easier shoulders
more effective quad engagement
faster recovery from total hip and knee surgery

Good core stability means we don’t have to use breath-holding or other bracing patterns to keep us together. We can settle into ourselves.

We know where our body is in space (proprioception). We can sense effort, force, equilibrium and balance.

Pause the thinking that your core is your abdomen – and look at what your core actually DOES.

Join me for Power of Pure Movement: Building a Responsive, Agile & Nimble Core and connect with your body and experience how much more steady and stable you feel through all of your being.

“Cueing” the core: Tips and tricks to help you and your students "get the core" and kinesthetically feel their way to building embodied core stability.

Core training really took on new meaning after helping my husband through Post Traumatic Stress and Hypervigilance as a Fire Fighter. Even though I knew the multilayered approach to healing, my own experience supporting him gave me a totally new understanding of how vital a responsive core is to be calmer, easeful and quietly alert (not wired alert).

This training blends all that I teach from a body-based perspective, and yet we experience it weaving through our whole system – body, brain, breath and being.
