Fascia connects…quite literally!You can think of fascia like a spider web of interconnections encasing your whole body.Fascia is sheets of connective tissue. Examples include: tendons, ligaments, joint capsules, cartilage, organs and muscular connective tissues.Fascia forms beneath the skin; it attaches, encloses and separates muscles and other internal organs.Fascia gives our body both shape and structure. It plays an important role in holding our skeleton and muscles together.Fascia is integral to healthy, functional movement as it transfers and stores energy.Fascia plays a role in transporting fluids and nutrients throughout the entire body.Finally, fascia is a sensory organ. In terms of area, fascia is the largest and richest sensory organ in the body. Fascia is constantly communicating information to the central nervous system and to the autonomic nervous system. The autonomic nervous system controls vital bodily functions, such as heart rate, respiratory rate and digestive processes.In summary, fascia is essential to life!Fascia can lose its elasticity or crimp-like formation over time. Lack of movement is one of the main reasons as to why this happens.Fascia LOVES a variety of movements - kicking, swinging, rotating, jumping, squatting, bouncing, throwing, running, and more.Our modern-day lifestyle may not offer many opportunities for us to move like this. With that said, it's important to move your body in order to keep the fascial system healthy, supple and nourished.So, what happens when there's disruptions in one or more areas of our fascial network? What happens when fascia becomes dense, sticky, congested and matted?Well, you may experience one or more of the following:chronic pain in one or more areas of the bodyreduced range of motion in one or more areas of the bodystiffness, especially first thing in the morninglow energypoor mobility and flexibilitymuscle sorenessreduced collagen productionincreased risk of injurypoor coordinationheadachespostural concernsbreathing restrictionsadhesion and more!When fascia is healthy, it is wet and is able to glide and slide easily between the layers of the skin, fascia and muscles. As a result, we are able to move with more freedom! This freedom in movement can have a positive impact on mood, energy level and emotional health.Now, if you're sitting there thinking, it's too late for me to make improvements to my fascial system…well, I'm here to tell you that it's never too late!Recent imaging proves that fascia is alive. This tells us that the fascial system can be remodeled through movement that trains fascia.And that's exactly what we will accomplish in this course!This course may introduce you to new movements, or you may rediscover movements that you haven't done in years.This course includes 15 movement classes with 50+ exercises designed to stretch, strengthen, stimulate and revive your fascial system. We work from the ground up in order to target different fascial lines that exist throughout the entire body.We explore fascia routines for the lower body, core and upper body. In addition, I've included a morning routine to help activate your fascial system, an evening routine that will help you unwind, destress and relax, and a chair fascia routine that you can do at home, at work and for when you're on the go. This course invites you to explore, become curious about movement, play, reflect, make discoveries, and of course, have fun!The beauty of these fascia exercises is that you can add them to your existing workout routine.All you really need to do is 20 minutes of fascia exercises each week to start to notice and feel the changes taking place in your body.Are you ready to transform your body and find freedom in movement?!
