Hand Scapula Relationship
There is too much cuing that locks the scapula. When the scapula follows the hands in space, the bone rhythms and muscular coordination is enhanced. In upcoming workshop, Anatomy Dances- Sensing the Shoulder Girdle with Lesley A. Powell, we will explore how the rhythms of the shoulder girdle works and inspires the coordination of the anterior serratus with the core.
Anatomy Dances- Sensing the Shoulder Girdle with Lesley A. Powell
March 19, 2023. 2:00 -5:10 PM. $150 Online. Recording will be made.
The shoulder girdle function is dependent on intricate timings of bone rhythms and phrasing of muscles. As the hand moves in space, the movements of the bones and muscles are sequencing for good function. Poor posture and cueing are locking the shoulder girdle down. Through drawing and movement we will look at how to embody better function.
Embodiment of the muscles of the shoulder girdle is about waking the senses in your upper body. A dynamic shoulder girdle has many different flavors depending on the movement.
All are welcome. No experience is necessary in drawing.
