Flexible Relief
June: Bearing Down
One workshop with audio recording and one clinic per week.
Tuesdays at 11 eastern time starting June 9th
These lessons offer flexibility, balance, efficient movement and pleasure, all rolled into one. They are for active people who are starting to feel their bodies changing - maybe shoulders are tighter after desk work, the back protests after weekend projects, or you're just not moving with the same ease you once did. Carie's underlying principle is to awaken your own inner teacher. Students are deeply satisfied by the transformations that they themselves bring about.

Bearing Down
Bearing down is coordination, more than effort. When you go for that tennis ace, tap into the end of your paddle stroke, lift a heavy load, give birth, or even take a satisfying breath, you are managing pressure gradients — routing force through a system of diaphragms and cavities that other movement traditions never mention and most people never meet consciously. The respiratory diaphragm, the pelvic diaphragm, the pelvic floor: these structures are in constant conversation, and that conversation shapes your power, your continence, your voice, your push. In this class you will find the hidden coordination at the center of bearing down — not bracing, not gripping, but a directed, intelligent pressure that knows where it is going.
And connect a bit with your classmates if you want to…
