Proper strengthening and stabilizing of the pelvic floor helps to create the correct foundation of each movement in the body. This is the true meaning of "core work." Whether you experience any of these conditions, or are just plain curious about this region of the body, this workshop is for you:
*pelvic pain
*lower back, hip or groin problems
*discomfort during sex or while using tampons
*skin irritation
*leak when laughing or sneezing
* have to go the bathroom too often
*prolapsed organs
* pre and post pregnancy
This workshop we will locate, assess, soften, stretch, strengthen and exercise the muscle groups of the pelvic floor, discuss mula bandha, abdominal health and how to utilize the pelvic floor in asana.
