Unlocking Movement: The Functional Anatomy of the Shoulder Girdle
Saturday October 18th 2:30pm-4:30pm PT
The musculature that empowers our arms is a very extensive group of synergistic muscles, extending from the skull to the pelvic girdle both posteriorly and anteriorly. It is a full “jacket” that encompasses our entire torso with attachments to every vertebra, the entire rib cage and the muscle of the abdomen. It’s freedom of movement is central to our existence and creativity in many ways.
How is the free movement of the scapula essential for the arms’ range of movement?
How do restrictive muscular patterns in the shoulders compromise our breath and the health of our whole organism?
How does the shoulder girdle effect our posture, from feet to head?
How are asanas designed to lengthen, strengthen and re-organize this shoulder girdle “jacket?”

Deane Juhan eloquently brings alive and makes accessible and intriguing the subjects of anatomy and physiology. These workshops allow us to develop new images and new language in order to more deeply understand the anatomical, physiological, and philosophical aspects of the body-mind.
All webinars will include extensive slides and lecture to illustrate and describe the material in their titles. They are the accumulation and consolidation of knowledge on their subjects that has been gleaned from Deane Juhan’s fifty years of research and practice.
Much of content of these classes is uniquely applied to somatic healing disciplines of all kinds. It offer perspectives that are not found in textbooks, and that in fact often run counter to accepted opinions about the nature of our organisms’ processes of development and healing.
