Do you spend hours typing, writing, doing hair, or making coffee for a living?
Maybe you are an architect, or a massage therapist, an editor, writer, a professional guitar player, a mom of two, a nurse, a dog walker....
We have so many students, friends and family members whose hands, lower arms, elbows, shoulders, and neck are hurting for attention and ask for it in the middle of the work day!
This month, we put all of our TLC on the upper limbs - hands, arms and shoulder girdle!
We ask so much of our upper body - to always be available to perform, and between work, house work, carrying kids, and yes, even heavy exercise like holding kettlebells and bars, our upper bodies are asking for attention. Sometimes they ask in tingling and fatigue, and sometimes in headaches and irritable moods.
Sometimes, you switch your hands that hold the computer mouse, only to find now both arms feel poorly at the end of the work day...there is something you can do!
Together, we'll spend this whole month increasing the movement capacity and strength of the hands, wrists, arms and shoulders.
We will start gentle, and build our strength.
Whether you are someone who's known your hands need attention for a while, or you are just becoming aware that you can do something about them - these classes will be a unique mix of workstation moves and moves you can do at home to strengthen your body.

There are many different ways to move your body more and better, but nothing beats the variety of weekly classes and the attitude of a teacher who is knowledgeable, highly skilled and creative!
Friends,
We all know how much of a challenge it can be to find the time, motivation and energy to do a meaningful personal movement practice.
Often, we give up because we don't want to drive so far to a class, or change our clothes, or leave our babies, or our homes. Often, clients say, it can take them an hour to commute, an hour to move and an hour to commute back.
When I left California, many students shared how much they miss classes in person - and then when our online students started requesting classes - we thought, well, maybe there is no better time than the present to offer short, effective, safe and fun online classes!

See you in class!

Galina is no ordinary teacher
"As a movement teacher I incorporate multiple healing movement modalities in my classes. As a Nutritious Movement Certified Restorative exercise specialist, my training is to guide you to find the gentlest and most appropriate exercises for your skill level.
Restorative Exercise is perfect for finding the sticky spots - those places that are deprived of nourishment and attention, limited by modern lifestyle and typical exercise programs.
I also bring mindful movement and my tools from Functional Movement Systems, Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization, Somatic Practice and Somatic Experiencing.
My 20s were spent training people as a personal trainer, so I also bring my coaching experience to take larger patterns and break them down into bite-sized movements anyone can learn, as well as build large complex movements from the smaller skills you master in our classes.
Whether you are moving for healing or moving for performance, you will enjoy these classes with each moving cell of your body!"
