FALLING IN LOVE with the FASCIA
a FASCIAL UNWINDING 50 hour training with Ateeka
DENMARK edition
Connect, explore and RESTORE movement within your LIVING WEB of LIFE, the myo-fascial tissue (bindevev). Your fascia is a continuum of LIVING soft tissue, floating in its own fluid, without beginning or end . . . that offers both freedom and containment to your entire being.
In this 50 hour LIVE training, we will dive into the miraculous tissue of the fasciae . . . connecting through movement, sensing and relaxation with the nature of the different layers and how they interplay. You will learn many aspects the practice of yogaSOMATICS MYOFASCIAL UNWINDING that softly and gently helps to restore your myofascial and soft tissue to a state of healthy natural resiliency, more pleasure in the body and rest in the mind.
Through all three meetings, we set the tone of “being” rather than ”doing”. Our movement and sensing practices are an expression of listening, respect, empathy and kindness towards ourselves and the group we practice together with. We truly live in a web of CONNECTIVITY.
SOME OF THE THEMES:
Myofascial Unwinding: Learn variations of this gentle, yet very effective practice that support grounding, centering, embodiment, stress reduction, pain relief and relaxation.
Through movement, breath and visualisation, learn and embody different layers/types of fascia in your own body: superficial fascia, deep fascia, visceral fascia and more.
Fascia is an “aquatic being” by nature. Learn to sense the “ground substance”: the self-generated fluid that fascia floats in and glides upon.
Explore and become familiar with the nature and sensation of other types of fluid in our bodies, incl. cerebral-spinal fluid, hydrolaunic acid and more.
Loosening the Effort: Leaning into the momentum of movement where flow is more powerful than force
Constructed or unconstructed unwinding: learn specific & new ways to introduce this practice to your students & clients.
Unwinding as a dance with gravity & levity: laying down, standing, sitting, all fours and even some supported inversion creates new opportunities for fascial and nervous system resiliency.
