Mobility-focused movement coaching
Find your balance through guided explorations of the body in motion.
Exploratory movement with an eye on mobility is the heart and soul of our dynamic alignment practice. Playing a valuable role in all we do, optimized mobility refers to appropriately balanced flexibility, strength, and control of joints. How best to accomplish this is up for debate (and debated, it is!). With benefits and insights found in different movement modalities, Dynamic Alignment is a moving exploration through multiple movement disciplines. Just as science explores ideas in order to produce evidence, we explore movement to discover what helps us perform at and feel our best.
We each experience physical potential and capability in various ways for various reasons; exploring the how and why of it all helps us learn a bit about ourselves. (Plus it's super fun.) Determine what feels hindering vs helpful as you move. Hold onto what resonates, leave behind what doesn't, and keep in mind that awesome-feeling bodies take as many shapes as there are people making them.
As research unearths previous unknowns about the human form, predicting results of different movements on it becomes as dynamic as movement itself. Anatomy may not change, but through continued exploration, our understanding of it sure has. You'd have to spend a lifetime studying this stuff to make sense of it.
And that's exactly what I've done.
I'm Tina, and it's this thrilling investigation and sharing of what we're made of and how we do stuff that makes me feel alive. My movement literacy is grounded in the teachings of yoga, strengthened by heavy lifting, stays in control through Pilates methodology, finds energy in the power and surprising intricacies of kettlebell training, and connects via a web of fascial familiarity. The resulting mobility coaching is additionally informed by extensive education in anatomy, corrective exercise, manual therapy, sports medicine, strength training, pain research, and a vast array of movement disciplines. Traditional methods of one modality combined with intuitive movement and diversified aspects of another allows for fun and effective ways of serving an individual's structure and goals. I love sharing what I know, even while that very knowledge is challenged.
Let's explore, shall we?
