The Anatomy of the Shoulder Girdle with Deane Juhan - Online
Saturday September 26 2:30pm-4:30pm PDT
A recording will be available for all participants
The muscles that empower the arms extend from the skull to the pelvis, attach to every vertebra and encompass the entire rib cage. They include some of the largest muscles of the body, as well as some of those that are the most prone to occupational and emotional stress. They are the source of a great deal of our creativity in the world; on the other hand they are also the cause of a wide variety of difficulties that can develop in relation to their habituated holding patterns--apparent "spinal" discomfort, diminished lung capacity, poor postural balance, inefficient locomotion, wasted energy, and compromised blood and lymph flow and neural conduction. We will look at the anatomy of the shoulder girdle, and its complex functions in our daily lives, our yoga or other movement practices and approaches to effective treatment in massage therapy.

Deane Juhan eloquently brings alive and makes accessible and intriguing the subjects of anatomy, physiology and neurology. These classes will develop new images and new language and new concepts in order to more deeply understand the anatomical, physiological, and philosophical aspects of the body, mind and spirit. New cutting-edge research and decades of personal experience are the sources of the information that will be offered.
This Dynamic Anatomy course is designed for bodyworkers and movement therapists of all kinds—practitioners of massage, Yoga, Trager, Feldenkrais, Alexander Technic, deep tissue approaches, chiropractic, physical therapy and dance therapists have all profited from Deane’s classes in the past.
All of this material, as we weave it more coherently into an ultimate vision of how our bodies, our minds and our deeper souls interact can lead us to ever more optimal function, self-development, and freedom from impairments that have limited our potentials for a vibrant life.
“Deane’s classes are outright fascinating, informative and empowering. The visuals of the vast amount of slides would be worth the price of the class alone. It is Deane’s well researched ability along with his decades of hands-on experience which solidifies an understanding that’s broader from what I already knew. I learned new facts today that I will immediately use when explaining to my clients what’s going on in their bodies." -- Fawn Christianson, Traeger practitioner and yoga instructor
