Karin Gurtner – AT MasterClass: Move And Be Moved

Description Of AT MasterClass: Move And Be Moved

The feeling of self-determination is essential for holistic well-being. It empowers engaging the contrasts of life with a healthy dose of emotional vigour and mental clarity, therefore greater physical functionality. Like courage, self-determination is not a quality one inherently possesses or lacks; it is a skill that can be trained and enhanced.

Slings Myofascial Training is a resource-oriented integrative movement practice that facilitates inner dynamic balance and a sense of togetherness along with intrinsic motivation and growth. These elements strengthen the kind of self-determination that motivates you to move, be proactive, and adapt while allowing you to be moved, let go, and bounce back.

Fascia as a collaborative sensory system with structural resilience is in focus in this interactive webinar. Explored are:

• Kinaesthetic intelligence, therefore the interplay of proprioceptive finesse (moving) and interoceptive clarity (being moved).
• Fascial tone regulation, therefore the dynamic counterpoise between the sympathetic (activity) and parasympathetic (release) nervous system.
• Fascial elasticity, therefore rhythmical lengthening (adapting) and recoiling (bouncing back).

Equipment Needed:

• Yoga mat
• 2 Massage balls

Equipment Optional:

• Kneeling pad
• 2 Massage domes

Run time: 2:01:41
