Clinical Somatics Exercises for Full Body Relief

Level One & Level Two Courses

In the online Level One & Level Two Courses, you’ll learn how to use groundbreaking Clinical Somatics exercises to alleviate common musculoskeletal conditions, improve your posture and movement, and prevent recurring pain and injuries. By the end of the courses you’ll be self-sufficient, able to prevent and relieve your own pain by doing the exercises you feel that you need each day.

Level One Course Curriculum

Clinical Somatics exercises are slow, gentle, and therapeutic. The exercises are appropriate for all ages and fitness levels. In the two-month online Level One Course, you’ll learn Thomas Hanna’s Clinical Somatics exercises one by one through video demonstrations, audio classes, and written explanations. The Level One & Two Courses are designed to give you a learning experience similar to working with a private instructor. You’ll spend several days focusing on each exercise before moving on to the next one.

This focused time gives you the opportunity to become completely comfortable with the exercises and the effects that each one has on your body. The pace of the course is set, so you cannot skip ahead, but you can feel free to move more slowly through the course if you want to. You have lifetime access to the course.

Periodically, you will do audio Daily Practice Classes that combine the exercises into sequences. At the end of the course, you’ll receive a comprehensive audio Daily Practice Class that includes all of the exercises. You can download and save all of these audio classes forever. Throughout the course, you’ll receive a daily email letting you know that there is a new exercise to learn, a new class to use, or suggesting what to practice that day. Ultimately, you will have learned the exercises well enough that you are able to assess yourself and do what you need on a daily basis to prevent and relieve your pain and continue to improve your posture and movement.

Level One focuses on releasing muscle tension in the core of your body: your back, waist, abdomen, shoulders and hips. The core of your body is where your posture and movement patterns begin; it is your foundation. It is very important to address problems and imbalances in your core before moving outward to your extremities.

In the two-month online Level One Course, you’ll learn how to:

• Use Thomas Hanna’s technique of pandiculation to release chronic muscle tension, relieve chronic pain, and retrain your muscle memory
• Alleviate back pain, disc problems, joint pain, kyphosis, lordosis, scoliosis, sciatica, iliopsoas syndrome, osteoarthritis, uneven leg length, and more
• Learn exercises that release the lower back, hips, abdominals, obliques, shoulders, iliopsoas muscle, and more
• Improve posture, mobility, balance, body awareness, and muscular control
• Prevent recurring injuries and degeneration
• Improve athletic performance and speed recovery time
• Reduce stress and anxiety, and improve sleep and breathing
• Develop a daily practice that addresses your individual needs

Level Two Course Curriculum

The three-month online Level Two Course is structured in a very similar way to the Level One Course, but it moves a little faster, with twice as many exercises as the Level One Course. And while the Level One Course is focused on working with the core of the body, Level Two moves outward to the extremities. You’ll work with the neck, shoulders, face & jaw, hips, legs, and feet.

The Level Two Course also includes four proprioceptive exercises. The word proprioception means “how you sense your body in space.” As a result of adapting to habitual muscular patterns, many people have an altered, inaccurate sense of their posture. Their proprioception has gradually adapted over time, giving them the sense that they are standing straight up and down even though their spine is curved to some degree forward, backward, or to one side. The proprioceptive exercises help you to retrain your proprioception so that you can improve your posture and have an accurate sense of how you’re sitting and standing.

Throughout the course, you can download and save all of the audio Daily Practice Classes. You have lifetime access to the course.

The Level One Course and Level Two Course together contain all of the Clinical Somatics exercises that are included in all of the audio class downloads that I offer.

*Please note: Before enrolling in the Level Two Course, you must complete the Level One Course.

In the online Level Two Course, you’ll learn exercises that relieve:

• Tension and pain in the hips, leg muscles, feet, neck, shoulders, face, and jaw
• Forward head posture
• Frozen shoulder
• Leg spasms & cramps
• Plantar fasciitis
• Sciatica & piriformis syndrome
• Scoliosis
• Temporomandibular joint disorders
• Thoracic outlet syndrome
• Uneven leg length

MISSION

To educate people about Clinical Somatics, and to give them the tools to get out of pain and take care of their musculoskeletal health for the rest of their lives.
One in three people lives with chronic pain. That’s more people than suffer from cancer, heart disease, and diabetes combined. Chronic pain costs the United States about $600 billion annually in health care and lost productivity–that’s roughly $2,000 each year for every person living in the U.S.

Clinical Somatics will have a profound effect on the chronic pain epidemic. Imagine if everyone knew how to prevent and relieve their own muscle and joint pain. Medications and surgeries would be reserved for acute and unavoidable cases of pain and injury, and health care costs would go down.

More importantly, our quality of life would improve. Imagine feeling empowered to prevent and relieve your own pain, and to improve your posture and movement, instead of feeling like you’re at the mercy of the aging process. Imagine being able to be as active as you want to be throughout your life.

Somatic Movement Center is dedicated to ending the epidemic of chronic pain by educating and empowering as many people as possible, all around the world, to prevent and relieve their own pain with Clinical Somatics.
