6-WEEK CLASS SESSIONS: Bodyscape offers small classes where you’ll receive individualized attention as well as group learning. In the six week series you’ll explore basic activities like sitting, standing, walking, bending, using the arms, using the eyes and breathing, as well as learning the self-care activity known as “constructive rest.” These activities lead you to a new awareness that can be incorporated into your daily activities, your work, your sports and even your rest! It also enhances your Pilates, Gyrotonic and PT sessions.
Classes are taught by certified instructor, Bill Plake, who came to study the Alexander Technique because of a debilitating loss of functioning in his hands.
