Join Shelly for a 3 hour workshop on the many factors influencing back pain in our culture, discussing the "Truths vs. Myths surrounding Back Pain" and the many ways to incorporate movement, mind-body connection, spirit, and breath practises (using physio concepts, yoga therapy, & Pilates methods) to address these factors. ** This workshop is NOT intended nor suitable for those with acute or unmanaged back conditions. An individual assessment and treatment plan unique to one's needs is recommended**

Presenters chosen are highly qualified professionals in their field, Medical & Yoga Experts sharing vast experience and knowledge. Shelly was invited to present 2 of her workshops: Demystifying Pelvic Health and Find Breath. Find Balance: Rediscovering Postural Movement Through Breath: Join Shelly as she passionately shares this educational, inspiring and interactive workshop discussing the mechanics and physiology of breathing and how it influences numerous systems of our body, with a focus on how breathing affects postural alignment and movement. Breathing patterns can influence all 5 Koshas (physical, mental, emotional, energetic and spiritual) of our existence; conversely, the state of our Koshas can influence our breathing patterns. We will also discuss and explore some of the most common and inefficient breathing patterns in our culture (and in the yoga studio!) and how they can lead to states of imbalance. A fun and inspiring practical yoga component consisting of asanas, pranayama and meditation will be included. Come with an open mind and heart to explore the combination of the science of respiration with the art of yoga.
