2 hour workshop focusing on the benefits of Body Rolling utilizing foam rollers and specific balls.

The benefits of Body Rolling

The basic principle of body rolling is creating space. Every part of your body needs its proper space to function properly. Lack of space first manifests as muscle tightness or contraction. Different bodies lack space for different reasons. Almost everyone has muscles in their body that they don’t use and then these muscles lose their ability to function properly. These muscles then shrink – they shorten, they take up less space. We also all have muscles that we overuse. These muscles are constantly contracted and tightness then results in lack of space.

In body rolling we release the fascia and elongate the muscle. We stimulate a tendon, we free up a joint. Working with the ball reveals how tightness in certain muscles restricts movements in the joints. As they release, the joint loosens up.

The other work that body rolling does is decongest and unstick connective tissue and stimulates bone. It also encourages you to let go of habitual patterns. You start to let go and release. With the breath on the ball we soften, sink, melt and let go.

Body rolling is a must for Pilates, Gyrotonic and Yoga students (honestly EVERYONE can benefit). It will enable and deepen your movement arts practice. It will teach and inform you about your own anatomy. It will help you let go of fascial restrictions, energy blockages, and stress. You will feel more centered, grounded and more at ease both physically and emotionally.
