Freeing the Shoulders & Arms


A 4-Part Movement Series

 

Stiff, elevated, tired, painful, hypermobile, sloped, and rounded. These are just a few descriptions people use to describe their shoulders. The good news is these challenges are often caused by learned habits, which means by learning better movement strategies, you can develop shoulders that feel lighter, more graceful, and fluid.

This series will create a rich learning environment to cultivate a better sense of kinesthetic awareness, support, and anatomical knowledge allowing you to relieve your overused shoulder muscles. Whether your shoulders feel great or you feel constant daily tension, this four-week series will leave you with a fundamental understanding of shoulder movement. You'll realize untapped power, coordination, and agility, fostering a profound sense of ease and freedom within the arms and shoulders.

Participants will understand:

  • The benefits of integrating movements of the spine, clavicle, scapula, and arms.
  • The basics of anatomy to understand shoulder joint movement.
  • How to leverage the scapula to reduce muscular tone.
  • The wisdom in creating a base of support for the shoulders to rest.
  • Discover the four critical joints for healthy shoulder movement.
  • How to distribute effort through the whole of yourself, relieving the undue burden on your shoulders.

 

"Movement dysfunction or pain is often caused by learned habits, not by abnormal structures. Improvements come from changing habits of movement and creating new possibilities." Norman Doidge

Hey There! I'm Joe Kelly

There is nothing more gratifying to me than helping my clients get “unstuck” from old habits and patterns of movement that no longer serve them.  I’m an Advanced Certified Structural Medicine Specialist, but most importantly, I’m an educator, coach, and cheerleader to help you get to your goals. I have a keen ability to observe the subtle habitual movement patterns that are inefficient and, if left unchecked, often create tension and pain. By developing awareness of one’s movement habits, we can develop strategies to foster more efficient and elegant movement.

 

With a decade of clinical experience and study helping people find optimal alignment, I look forward to sharing with you the principles to a healthier and happier body!
