Pelvic Stability and the Fluid Psoas 

Annie Carpenter

Join Annie for a deep dive into your healthy center. Finding just the right mix of strength and flexibility, release and stability, creates the conditions for healthy posture, depth in Asana, and joyous movement.

The day will begin with a classic SmartFLOW 2-hour practice, followed by an afternoon of functional-anatomy informed release work, highlighting the Iliopsoas system, the lateral sheath and diaphragm. Within the sessions, two shorter Asana sequences will be practiced: one with balanced increasing ROM (range of motion), and the other a quiet, deep intra-pelvic stability practice. Make no mistake: we need both of them. Modifications and hands-on assists round out the day.

You will come away from this immersion with an increased ability to discern imbalances and instabilities in your and your students’ practices.

  • Morning practice: SmartFLOW
  • Lunch break (food sold separately)
  • Afternoon practice: Functional-anatomy informed release
  • Modifications and Hands-on Assists
