25.01.2022 Videos for certification submitted! Now waiting for the feedback! Keeping my fingers crossed I did it right. #kinstretch #certification #doanything #makeshitworknice #functionalrangeconditioning

24.01.2022 S U N - S A L U T A T I O N - S A F A R I This workshop is designed for those curious about what a functional approach to yoga is. We are going to take a deep dive into this much loved sequence of poses with a depth that will make you feel STRONG and STABLE.... We will together unpack all these movements and dive into all the questions you've ever had about sun salutations. By the end of the workshop you will see this sequence as a tool for discovery and exploration. You will get to learn new approaches, use new tools and techniques to discover more strength and spaciousness than ever before. What you will learn: How to mobilise and stabilise your spine including how to make back bends feel great, How to create the kind of strength you need for push-ups/chaturangas, What to do to prevent your wrists from getting sore, What role your pelvis plays in the movement of your spine, How to make forward folds feel safer and how to create more hamstring resilience, A general introduction into mobility work and how this can help you to create more resiliency in all your joints. The workshop is happening Saturday 5th of September (2-5pm) via ZOOM. It will be recorded so even if you can't make it on the day you can get access to the recording as well! For bookings please DM me. Cost: $50 per household (yes, your partner, kid or room mate can attend for free!!)

18.01.2022 Got issues with back pain? Want to learn a different approach to spinal mobility? Want to learn how to practice #yoga and #movement with #intent? Want to learn how to #segment your spine for optimal functionality for whatever else you do in your life? Maybe join tonight for a glimpse into a different approach to yoga or get a deeper dive into it during Saturday’s workshop. Message me for details. #functionalrangeconditioning #controlyourself #doanything #kinstretch #followthedetour #detouryoga #carseverydamnday

18.01.2022 Alignment based yoga? Do you think that the correct way to move is by working with precise alignment and the exact stacking of bones on top of one another and a system of 90 angles? Do you think that by venturing off that ideal alignment you are sacrificing the safety of your joints? We are all familiar with man made structures, buildings, bridges and how they are build - one brick on top of another - from the ground up. But does this principle apply to human structures ...(aka bodies) as well? Think about it: what would happen if you’d flip a building on its side? It would crumble, it’s structural integrity lost with the change of position. Do you experience that when you change your position relative to gravity (let’s say by lying down for savasana)? I hazard a guess and say NO! So if these same principles don’t apply to humans then why would there be any need to stack joints and work with alignment? The answer is: the human body’s integrity is based on the principles of biotensegrity (biological tension based integrity or tension dependent) not continuous compression. In this model the bones function as compression struts and the fasciae and muscles are the surrounding and investing tension members. Makes sense? #biotensegrity #movement #yoga #adifferentwaytothink See more

18.01.2022 Have you ever wondered why we get injured? Have you ever been "diagnosed" with an asymmetry in your body ( eg. one leg is longer that the other) or "weak glutes", "flat feet", "wear and tear"? Maybe think again. :) This video explains why it is so important to spend time under tension and INCREASE this load on the body slowly over time to build functional tissue capacity and with that mitigate the risk of injury. Interested to see how you can do that? Want to learn more abou...t a scientific, evidence-based approach to movement? Join me for one of my functional yoga classes (Wednesdays via zoom and Saturdays at the beautiful @WildHeart studio) or for a more in depth dive via my Sun Salutation Safari workshop. Message me for details.

13.01.2022 3 hour online workshop plus extra material to take a deep dive into Sun Salutations and how to approach your yoga practice from a functional mobility & strength place. Ever asked yourself why we do sun salutations? Do you want to better understand this sequence in your own body, getting all the tools and background to adapt it for your needs? Want to understand WHY we do chaturangas, down dogs, up dogs and forward folds and how to intelligently and purposefully move through ...and with them? Ever feel like in your normal yoga class you don't quite have enough time to really explore and set up so the poses are truly beneficial for YOU? Or maybe the usual "yoga lingo" and cueing don't really mean anything to you and you would like to ask questions and explore new ways to approach the poses? Or you've been doing it for years but would like to get a different, science and evidence based approach to sun salutations? Pricing for access: $50 Message me for details!

13.01.2022 H I P E X T E N S I O N As we evolved to walk on two feet our hips developed the capacity to extend. Research indicates that we require approximately 10-20 degrees of hip extension for a healthy human gait. BUT due to the spread of sedentarism and prolonged periods of sitting (aka hip flexion) many people have 0 degrees (or even less) of hip extension available often requiring the lumbar spine to compensate leading to more compressive forces in the lower back. ... So in this weeks ZOOM class we’ll take a close look at hip extension and how to increase range uncoupled from spinal extension. DM me if you’re interested to learn more. #functionalrangeconditioning #hipmobility #yogadetour #followthedetour #kinstretch #backpain

11.01.2022 UNLOCKING HIP MOBILITY Mobility training can be thought of as a combination of flexibility, strength and body control. Working through your full range of motion is fantastic for gaining mobility and neglected ranges can lead to a feeling of tightness, weakness, and constraint. ... The hip/pelvic complex is one of those areas that, in my experience, becomes very tight and restricted in a lot of people which then can lead to lower back issues, knee and ankle pain. So tomorrow’s class will focus on all things hip: rotation, extension, flexion, abduction, adduction... want to join me? DM for details! #functionalyoga #hipmobility #functionalrangeconditioning #followthedetour #detouryoga #allthehipthings #hipsdontlie

11.01.2022 Do we really experience pain or is it merely an illusion? Is pain a reliable indicator for tissue damage? Have a look at Professor Lorimer Moseley's project "Tame the beast" to get a great understanding of what pain actually means in the body, how our brain functions and what to do about chronic pain.... (Link to his extremely funny and entertaining TED talk is in the comments) #painresearch #tamethebeast #neurology

08.01.2022 GUYS!! You've got to have a look at this. Hunter and Dre talking about FRC and kintretch!!

07.01.2022 Biomechanics as such doesn’t exist in the body. The skeleton is NOT the structural frame of the body. Forces don’t simply add up. There is no ONE perfect posture (or alignment for that matter). We are not like a building, designed to only resist force in one direction only. The human body has compressive AND tensile stability in ALL directions! Our joints are not simply a series of two way leavers. You can not reduce the COMPLEXITY of the human body & movement to the basic ph...ysics models you learned at school! Both, at the micro and macro level (all the way from the DNA, cells, fibers to muscles and bones), EVERYTHING we do can be explained much better by a TENSEGRITY model (or BIOFLOW).

06.01.2022 They arrived just in time for the weekend! Matcha bowls from Japan for our #teaceremony on Sunday with @deborah_ann_connectyoga and @feral_yogi There are only 3 spots left!! #matcha #teaceremony #urbanyogaretreat #yoga

06.01.2022 T H E S P I N E The vertebral column is part of the axial skeleton. In a human’s spine there are normally 33 vertebrae with the upper 24 able to articulate and move separate from each other. Segmentation of the spine is the ability to move specific joints within the vertebral column individually and intentionally. So why does this matter? Because LIFE does not happen in a neutral spine!! Want to learn more? For a class with a focus on spinal movement, segmentation and articulation join me Wednesday. For a deeper dive come along to my sun salutation safari on Saturday. DM me for details. #spinalmovement #functionalyoga #mobility #functionalrangeconditioning #kinstretch #doanything #makeshitworknice #followtgedetour #detouryoga

06.01.2022 COMING SOON!!!! Stay tuned for the PYT virtual studio!!! #newthingsonthehorizon #virtualstudio #asanaanarchists #functionalyoga

05.01.2022 Only a few spots left! If you are considering to come along better book soon as only a few spots are left now! Bookings either via Eventbrite or message me directly.

05.01.2022 M O B I L I T Y Mobility training is about having CONTROL over your active range of motion, doing two or three 15s stretches in a NOT mobility training! Whilst most people are in control of the mid-ranges of any type of motion of their joints, the shorter and longer ranges are much harder to control. Instead of focusing on reaching a perfect position or correct alignment functional yoga will make you stronger in EVERY range. A mobile body is the single most important attribute for ANY person at ANY age! Curious to try? DM me!! #mobilitytraining #makeshitworknice #doanything #functionalyoga #followthedetour

04.01.2022 N I N J A Y O G A Mixing traditional yoga with functional range conditioning to create a modern style of yoga that creates strong and resilient bodies (for whatever you want to do in life). We break down poses and create progressions and regressions, progressively load the tissues to build strength and awareness! ... You can join my life via zoom or watch the class later (or even purchase it to keep). DM me if you want to join. Wednesdays via zoom and Saturdays at WildHeart studio! #functionalyoga #doanything #functionalrangeconditioning #makeshitworknice #followthedetour
