The Franklin Method® with Krista Solheim
Monday - Thursday
June 23rd - June 26th, 2025
2:00 PM - 3:15 PM
$20 per class
Class Description:
This four-day mini-series will investigate 'things we do most often'; breathing, sitting, reaching, standing, and walking. We will work to refine and enhance our own inner mapping of the landscape of the body.
Considering posture, physical efficiency, and state of mind; we will approach the 'things we do most often’ from different perspectives in the body; exploring aspects of automatic bone rhythms, muscle support, fascia, the senses and the inherent support and movement of the organs.
------------------------
The Franklin Method® focuses on how the body is ideally designed to function using Dynamic Neurocognitive Imagery™ to support that function. In our exploration of self, this physical embodiment training emphasizes the body and brain as equal partners. With the use of touch, speech, imagery and functional anatomy, we will work to create positive and lasting change in the body and mind and to find comfort and joy in everyday movement.
