A pair of workshops on Monday, September 30th focuses on “Flexible Bodies, Flexible Brains.”
A second pair on Wednesday, October 2nd explores “Effortless Golf”.

Day 1: Flexible Bodies, Flexible Brains on Monday, September 30th. While aging is inevitable, we can maintain vitality and flexibility much longer when we include mindful movement in our lives. Awareness Through Movement® lessons have been shown to improve balance, reduce fear of falling and enhance quality of life. Current research suggests that movement is the key to maintaining brain health. Becoming aware of how you move will exponentially increase that ability!

Event 1: Simple Strategies for Better Living – 90 minutes | 9:30am-11:00am at Pinehurst Village Hall, Assembly Hall. This workshop is open to everyone, lessons will be taught in standing and seated in chairs. The lessons will address how to improve posture and eyesight and reduce tension in shoulders and neck. Join Flow University, and master movement educator Lavinia Plonka for an entertaining and illuminating evening where you will get reacquainted with your innate ability to learn to move better, feel better and live the life you want.

Event 2: I’ve Got Your Back – 90 minutes on Monday, September 30th | 11:15am-12:45pm at Pinehurst Village Hall, Assembly Hall. Everyone can benefit from a more flexible, resilient spine.

This portion of the class is taught lying on the floor. While mats will be provided, you are also invited to bring your own.

Event 3: Rotation, Rotation, Rotation – 90 minutes | 1:30pm-3:00pm at the Pinehurst Village Hall, Assembly Hall. Your back is a big territory extending from your neck to the bottom of your pelvis. You stand with your back slightly bent, then twist and swing as powerfully as you can. What could possibly go wrong? In this workshop we will explore seated and standing strategies for preparing your back before playing and relieving your back after playing, focusing on how you rotate your spine.

Event 4: You’ve Got the Power! – 90 minutes | 3:15pm-4:45pm at the Pinehurst Village Hall, Assembly Hall. Where does the power of your swing come from?
