This Program will teach how to identify sympathetic and parasympathetic skeletal, fascia, valve and organ biomechanics.  Individuals will learn both personal mapping skills and also how to assist others to transform unsupportive motor/movement patterns into new motor patterns of ease.  A variety of equipment is used to provide sensory feedback to assist the mapping and teaching process, i.e. Pilates, weight cables, parkour equipment, balls and foam rollers.  The program emphasizes addressing all four tube layers of the body: neurological/skin, muscle/bone, organ adn hormone layers.  The program also affirms the recognition and acknowledgement of the survival pattern related emotional/spiritual barriers that influence movement and well-being.   This program will include the following topics of study:

​

• Nervous System Review with emphasis on the Autonomic Nervous System

• General Adaptation Syndrome (G.A.S.)

• Parasympathetic vs Sympathetic: Identifying Seven Stages of Startle via Skeletal Markers and Motor Patterning.  Sensory Motor Relflex Loop vs. survival reflexes

• Motor Patterning and Brain Maps

• Valve System and Valve Breathing

• Fascia:  Function and Form, Anatomy Trains, Fascia Bands

• Self-Calming Techniques

• Eye Tracking and the Reticular Activating System (R.A.S.)

• Skeletal System Arthrokinematics: Pelvic Girdle and Leg, Rib-cage, Shoulder Girdle and Arm, Head and Neck, Body Physics

• Childhood Developmental Motor Patterning

• Organ Observation and Mobilization

• Recognizing Survival Patterning and Sympathetic Personal Triggers.

• In depth study of Fajardo Method principles of structure and movement: Center Line Principle of Motion, Grid Points and application to movement, Stingray Principle of Motion, Valve Breathing
