Go Beyond 'Relax the Shoulder': Functional Shoulder Biomechanics

Description

Go Beyond "Relax the Shoulder": Functional Shoulder Biomechanics with Anna Winton

We know that "relax the shoulder" is just the beginning of a conversation. This workshop dives deep into what lies beyond that simple instruction, giving you the biomechanical knowledge and practical tools to truly help your clients find strength, stability, and freedom in their upper body. So let's demystify the complex shoulder girdle, and move past basic anatomical facts to understand the integrated, functional relationship between the scapula, humerus, and spine. You owe it to yourself and your clients to learn to:

· Assess and identify common shoulder movement patterns and compensations.

· Move beyond one-size-fits-all cueing and provide nuanced, effective corrections.

· Build purposeful progressions and regressions using the Classical Repertoire that enhance stability and mobility for a wide range of clients, from desk workers to athletes.

· Integrate the shoulders with core stability, unlocking more efficient and powerful movement throughout the body.

Objectives:

· Review shoulder anatomy and the impact of common postural alignment issues.

· Understand basic mechanics of the shoulder girdle.

· Go beyond basic cues to solve common shoulder challenges in your clients.

· Improve your observation skills to better assess shoulder movement.

· Build smarter exercise sequences for a wide range of shoulder needs.

* Empower clients to feel more control and less pain in their shoulders

Why should I take this session? Go beyond simply reacting to your client's compensations to proactively correcting them; to elevate your teaching to a more specialized level, attracting and retaining a wider range of clients; and to gain the confidence that comes from a deeper understanding of the body and the ability to effectively communicate that knowledge.
