SUMMARY:FLUID CORE: Psoas\, Connective Tissue and BONES with Sue Hitzmann
DESCRIPTION:Fluid Core \nPsoas\nConnective Tissue \nand \nBONES  \na collaboration with  \nSue Hitzmann \nPresented April 2021. The video recording is available by purchasing a ticket below. \nJoin our conversation and discover the \nBONE\nPSOAS\nConnection \nand why\nConnective Tissue is key to resiliency and health\nBones\n         Talk\nto our Brain\n&\nto the\nEarth  \n“The human skeleton and our bones are often times considered mere spacers \nand the stuff fascia connects to as a way to leverage force and motion. \nBut it turns out bones may play a significant role in not only our memory and mood \nbut may assist us in preventing anxiety and depression.” \n\n\n\n\nDiscover the role fascia plays in supporting over all health!\nTransporting nutrients and fluids throughout our body\, helping defend our body from microorganism\,\nthe bone-fascia network plays a role in both our immune system and nervous system \n\n\n\n\nMeet My Guest: \nSue Hitzmann\, MS\, CST\, NMT\, is a nationally recognized neuro-fascial manual therapist and teacher whose studies and explorations have culminated in the creation of the M.E.L.T. Method® (MELT). A revolutionary approach to pain-free fitness and longevity\, Melt Method is a self help technique for working with the connective tissue. Because the Psoas is deeply embedded in the sympathetic neuro-core\, hydrating connective tissue is an important key for resolving Psoas inflammation\, pain\, and tension. \n\n\n\nNeuroCore is a termed coined by neuro-fascial therapist Sue Hitzmann creator of The MELT Method® (2006) first heard during a conversation (2010) with author Liz Koch discussing the deepest “fascial bags” that enfold spinal cord\, psoas\, kidney\, adrenals: The NeuroCore System is comprised of a Reflexive Core – the 3D cylinder and the Rooted Core\, the head-to-toe neurofascial connection that allows our brain to sustain more efficient balance of our masses and spaces (another MELT Term) for the bony and joint parts of our body.(2018)

SUMMARY:FLUID CORE ~ Feeling Lost on the Way to Core Integrity (2-hr zoom)
DESCRIPTION:F L U I D  C O R E \nFeeling Lost on the Way to Core Integrity  \nPresented March 2021. The video recording is available by purchasing a ticket below. \n                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          \n\n\n\nFeeling lost she does not know how to proceed.\nI sense a mix of emotions within her – as if something inside simply has to give.\nAlthough she is beginning to recognize her vulnerability\, the feeling is unfamiliar and\, truthfully\, quite terrifying to her. \n\n\n\nStalking Wild Psoas: Embodying Your Core Intelligence \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe sense of feeling lost within a somatic inquiry can easily evoke looking outward for answers…but it is by getting lost that our sensory system awakens and new capabilities open up that foster innovating responses. We discover our knowing that which is invisible begins to unfold… Catching a fleeting glimpse\, detecting a movement at the perimeter of awareness\, there may be a new sense that something is not yet acknowledged\, or feels lost\, and yet is on the cutting edge of consciousness. Perhaps this is what hunting or being hunted feels like in the wild kingdom. Quick moving\, it can be too difficult to catch an impulse that sets our being into reaction: a desire to jump and escape as well as a longing to connect and be found. Following initiation of an expression requires a patient slowing of pace and a quieting receptivity in the heart to perceive the impulse just before it comes into being. It takes a bifurcating focus of awareness that moves inward and concurrently outward toward a larger field of influence. In this way\, we can stay present to feel the origins of our fear and the impulses of our longing. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLiz Koch  is an international educator\, author\, and creator of CoreAwareness™ focusing on awareness as key for developing human potential and awakening consciousness. With 45 years experience specializing in the human core\, Liz is recognized in the somatic\, bodywork\, and fitness professions as an authority on the core tissue called the Psoas.  Both nationally and internationally published\, her works include The Psoas Book\, Unraveling Scoliosis CD\, Core Awareness; Enhancing Yoga\, Pilates\, Exercise & Dance\, Psoas & Back Pain CD\, Mother\, Maiden\, Crone: Our Pleasure Playlist and her new book  Stalking Wild Psoas: Embodying Your Core Intelligence (2019 North Atlantic Books) \n\n\n\n\n\n\nPhoto Credit: Patrick Mueller/unsplash

SUMMARY:FUNDAMENTALS: Happy Feet ~ Happy Psoas (Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:FUNDAMENTALS \nHappy Feet ~ Happy Psoas \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWith its insistence on streamlining linear thinking\, the dominant power structure of western society\nbegins to loosen its grip\, opening up a multidimensional world where we can think not only on our feet but also with our feet.\nStalking Wild Psoas: Embodying Your Core Intelligence\n \nPresented March 2021. The video recording available by purchasing a ticket below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n  \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nGrounded through the feet supports a weight-bearing pelvis which offers the spine a rooted base of support\nas well as a profound relationship with the Earth. \n \nWhen bones in the feet and ankle are restricted\, the relationship between ground and space becomes challenged. For example\, putting a rigid shoe on a baby’s foot prevents the foot from freely rolling\, limiting the joint articulation and interrupting a resilient stride. This sets up a conditioned pattern of movement. Over time limited movement in toes and binding around the ankle limits articulation of the ankle joint essential for weight distribution along with the lack of movement in vital proprioception necessary for orientation.  A shoe with a negative heel (lower in the back than the front) for example shifts the skeletal weight back into a static position\, demanding an inappropriate muscular effort to move forward and stifling core psoas. When shoes worn continuously attempt to create an ideal shape or action they impose upon both muscles and bones\, causing imbalances throughout our body. Let’s take our shoes off and begin to awaken our feet. \nWe will spend time exploring the feet and their direct relationship with Core Expression\, Balance\, and all the Diaphragms so essential to our sense of buoyancy (ground force reaction) spacial freedom of our connective tissue and healthy energetic flow of our  meridians.

SUMMARY:Race & Body: Dissolving Whiteness in Core Expression ~ A Collaboration with Kimberly Ann Johnson
DESCRIPTION:Race & Body \nDissolving Whiteness in Core Expression \nA Workshop for “White” Women \n \n  \nphoto credit Allyssa Olaviar (unsplash) \nHow does primal expression change our perception and our response to ourselves\, and others\, specifically as it applies to race?  \nHow do we work with our responses to being in the category of “white women” \nand what does it means to be an individual within the group? \nHow can we learn to track individual truths and structural truths within our animal bodies? \nOur wild animal bodies are capable of sensing and moving deeply and in so doing we become conscious of the insidious ways colonization is held and communicated within our flesh and bone. We may squirm and distract ourselves\, but we have what it takes to dissolve these century-old impulses to cage\, control\, and power over  ~ to reclaim our inner Wild and to foster an antiracist culture.  \nWhat “white” posturing and performative expression share in common is a compartmentalization of body splitting us from our felt-sense emotions\, gut instincts\, and essential vitality. This power-over response built in to the Western approach shows up in yoga\, Pilates\, dance\, and fitness.  The idealized white body becomes the standard for which all other bodies are measured. Yet this column of strength is often a “frozen” spine limiting our potential and our capacity for coherent expression.   \n \nPhoto credit: Clem Onojeghuo-unsplash \n By using bio-intelligent fluid movements and sound\, we venture into disassociated responses\, and feelings of fragility to recognize the ancestral rigidity defended within “white-posturing.” Following these primal impulses dissolves distortions while nourishing life-enhancing gestures and expressions. Through insight\, journaling\, and tracking we attend to our authentic self\, discovering different responses than those Western Culture provide for us.  Claiming agency we can participate in co-creating and re-imagining ourselves and our values in the context of race\, justice\, and equity.     \nWe will attend to the questions: \nWhen\, how\, and why do I control myself? \nHow do I move if I am not told what to do? \n  \n \nKimberly Ann Johnson is the author of the  The Fourth Trimester. and her soon to be release Call Of The Wild (due out in April 2021). She is a Sexological Bodyworker\, Somatic Experiencing trauma resolution practitioner\, birth doula\, and single mom. She specializes in helping women prepare for birth\, recover from birth injuries and birth trauma\, and heal from sexual trauma.  She is the founder of Magamama.com\, an international holistic women’s health care resource for expectant and new mothers. A lifelong yoga student and teacher\, Kimberly has lead workshops throughout Thailand\, Malaysia\, Brazil\, Portugal and the US on the intersection of women’s sexuality and spirituality. After living in Brazil for eight years\, she currently resides in San Diego\, CA and teaches Activating Your Inner Jaguar courses online.  \n  \n  \nLiz Koch  is an international educator\, author\, mother\, crone\, and creator of CoreAwareness™ focusing on awareness as key for developing human potential and awakening consciousness. With 45 years experience specializing in the human core\, Liz is recognized in the somatic\, bodywork\, and fitness professions as an authority on the core tissue called Psoas.  Both nationally and internationally published\, her works include The Psoas Book\, Unraveling Scoliosis CD\, Core Awareness; Enhancing Yoga\, Pilates\, Exercise & Dance\, Psoas & Back Pain CD; Mother\, Maiden\, Crone: Our Pleasure Playlist and her most recent release (2019) Stalking Wild Psoas: Embodying Your Core Intelligence. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Changing the Language of Body ~ ReWilding Your Psoas
DESCRIPTION:Stalking Wild Psoas \nEmbodying Your Core Intelligence  \nPresented February 2021. The video recording is available by purchasing a ticket below. \nEssay Nine \n\n\n\nReWilding Your Psoas \n\n\n\nHow Play Impulses Help us Thrive \n\n\n\n\n\n\nA Conceptual Shift Made Potent Through Movement \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRe-wilding ignites unexpected acts of awakening. Redundancy\, whether in our personal life or in our work environment\, happens when expressions become defined and limited. To avoid redundancy\, living systems move inward toward depth perception and outward toward dynamic expression and realtiomship. As biological organisms\, our being-bodies are part of a much larger system that requires regenerative rather than degenerative practices. By consciously participating and contributing to overall sustainability within our own system\, other beings are stirred to thrive. Because our inquisitiveness is a vital source of nourishment\, following our play instincts and honing our somatic impulses is imperative in order to not only survive but also to thrive.

SUMMARY:Fluid Core ~ Metabolizing Fear
DESCRIPTION:Whether recoiling in fear or arcing in deep defense\, the psoas is at best referred to as an “emotional” muscle. \nPresented February 2021. The video recording is available by purchasing a ticket below. \n \n  \n\n\n\nSignaling survival responses\, this primal messenger relays disruptions and compensations that threaten core integrity. Just as every coherent animal in the wild kingdom sends messages\, humans\, like all mammals\, gesture with the twitch of an ear\, a gleam in the eye\, a hair standing on end\, an arc of the spine. Ignoring the wild nature of psoas can be very dangerous. \n\n\n\nExploring biological expressions of core or what I have coined “stalking wilding psoas\,” awakens a longing for a language akin to our actual somatic lived-experience.  Psoas behaves quite differently than any other tissue that traditional anatomy defines as muscle. More of an organ of perception\, something more akin to our clever tongue\, this primitive tissue signals whether or not we are out of sync with the earth’s gravitational field. Encoded with survival responses that instantaneously ignite a response of danger\, psoas is subtle and nuanced. Our psoas expresses both fear (survival) and pleasure (thriving). Psoas speaks not only to dissociative behaviors resulting from birth but also to an array of other adaptive strategies that can interrupt coherency and direct knowing. \nLearning how to metabolize fear is a process of nourishing our psoas that deepens our connection to earth and community where we find the ability and support to regulate and be deeply held. \n \n

SUMMARY:Awakening Your Fluids: The Power of Buoyancy & Belly Laughing
DESCRIPTION:Awakening Your Fluids \nThe Power of Buoyancy & Belly Laughing \n\nBuoyancy (/ˈbɔɪənsi\, ˈbuːjənsi/) or upthrust\,\nis an upward force exerted by a fluid\nthat opposes the weight of a partially or fully immersed object.\n source Wikipedia \n\nPresented January 2021. The video recording is available by purchasing a ticket below.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nBuoyancy is our birthright as foot\, pelvis\, respiratory\, mouth\, skull\, armpit\, and hand all have resilient dome-shaped tissue capable of providing a dynamic support that is not only responsive but also adaptable. \nOur respiratory diaphragm is a fluid bell-shaped tissue with jellyfish-like movements that blossom in multiple directions\, opening up internal spaciousness and volume while simultaneously opening down\, to root deep into the belly core. \nDiaphragms are naturally resilient and rebound with every step. Through fluid connective tissue and vibrating tensegrity\, ground reaction force is sensed in our floating bone\, supple psoas\, and buoyant diaphragms\, supporting movement and lifting our spirits. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlayful and delicious\, our inner fluids is life’s hidden force. \n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU’LL NEED …. bring several size balls:  A large fitness ball\, a 7-10 inch soft inflatable ball\, and a 3 inch soft bouncy ball

SUMMARY:Psoas & Continuum Explorations with Guest Mary Abrams
DESCRIPTION:P S O A S \nFlourishing Through Continuum Explorations     \nwith \nGuest Teacher Mary Abrams \nPresented December 2020. The video recording is available by purchasing a ticket below. \n \nMary joins me as my guest to bring you Continuum explorations from one of its original students and teachers….from her pure heart Mary carries the thread of Emilie Conrad’s profound teachings in her deeply supportive space in New York City.\nDuring the pandemic the Moving Body Resources (MBR) studio (where Emilie taught for years while in New York) has remained closed but for a few moments that allow community to safely gather.  Together we’ll virtually enter the MBR studio for a deep dive into a field of resonance of fluid movement.  I invoke the present energy of Emile to join us as we enter the Winter Solstice ~ diving into the darkness so needed for healing. My heart and work has thrived at the Moving body Resources for many years and I sorely miss the space it provides me. \nPlease join me.  All class proceeds go to supporting the studio as we enter a second year of limited travel\, participation\, and as we struggle to hold dear to what nourishes our souls. \n  \n\n\n\nMary Abrams\, MA\, RSME founder/director of Moving Body Resources apprenticed in Continuum Movement with its founder Emilie Conrad from 1994-2014 and was among the first group of people Emilie Conrad and Susan Harper Authorized as Continuum Movement Teachers in 1999. She continues to dialogue with Susan Harper (Continuum Montage)\, and explore human being theory (Affect-script theory) and Epistemics\, with Emilie’s long-time collaborator\, Gary David\, PhD.\n\nAll Mary’s  studies are valuable resources for tracking what is\, being open to the emerging unexpected\, and for discovering new meaning\, and learning to extend presence into the world. Since 1984 she has professionally explored her passions as a dancer/choreographer and somatic movement teacher. Mary is a Registered Somatic Movement Educator (RSME) with the International Somatic Movement Education and Therapy Association (ISMETA)\, and holds a masters degree from Goddard College in Consciousness Studies with a focus on embodied movement practice and theory. She served as Co-Chair with Lauren Abramson on the Board of Directors of the Silvan S. Tomkins Institute (SSTI) from 2013-2016.  From 2009-2017 she held a leadership role on the USA section of the MA Dance & Somatic Well-being: Connections to the Living Body from the University of Central Lancashire\, Preston\, England\, and continues to teach on the UK campus.  She also teaches on the Continuum training at the Somatic Academy of Berlin\, Germany and mentors people interested in becoming Somatic Movement Educators and/ or Continuum Teachers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Changing The Language of Body ~ Becoming Integral
DESCRIPTION:Stalking Wild Psoas \nEmbodying Your Core Intelligence  \nEssay Seven \n\n\n\nBECOMING INTEGRAL \nboundaries\, edges and thresholds \nPresented 2020. The video recording is available by purchasing a ticket below. \n\n\n\nA Conceptual Shift Made Potent Through Movement \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nPsoas reveals the truth about our relationship with the earth…. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nBy exploring my internal edges\, I have found the sensory system capable of multiple levels of articulation. My intention quite literally defines where I place my attention and therefore directly influences my experience. Sensing the edges of a boundary\, such as the shape of a bone or the parameter of a joint\, can help to clarify and contain experience.\nPermeable edges\, such as those exemplified in psoas or skin\, conversely\, are liminal spaces that encompass otherness\, providing transitional openings into a world of reciprocal relationship. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSkin is an organ of perception that expresses our embryological story\, revealing ancestral patterns as well as pre-and-perinatal stresses\, shocks\, and exposures to physical and emotional toxins at the moment of conception\, throughout fetal growth\, and during the journey from our mother’s womb to this world. Turning toward my relationship with my skin\, I began to explore a variety of ways of awakening what felt like a lifeless sack. Inspired by micro-movements and the power of soft puffing “o” sounds\, I begin to explore the internal and external edges and thresholds of my being \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:FUNDAMENTALS: Low Back Pain & The Psoas Connection
DESCRIPTION:FUNDAMENTALS \nLow Back Pain & The PSOAS Connection \nPresented November 2020. The video recording available by purchasing a ticket below. \n \n\n\n\nDISCOVER SIMPLE WAY TO: Resolve low back pain ~~~ \nRather than being caused by muscular weakness\, low back pain is often due to exhaustion. Gaining core strength begins with softening the deepest layers of tissue\, specifically the psoas. Doing so increases the capacity for reestablishing skeletal and muscular integrity. Symptoms associated with an unstable pelvis include mid-and low-back pain… inability to stand and bear weight on both feet as well as popping and cracking noises\, pain\, and stiffness all signal some type of disruption and instability which can lead to back pain. \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe earliest rudimentary vertebrae is found in the sea squirt\, a 550-million-year-old prevertebral organism. This oceanic creature suggests that the optimal conditions for bringing an injured\, exhausted\, lack-lustered spine back to life as well as for sustaining healthy bone is through regaining fluid movement…Our longing becomes that which shapes our being and our creative gestures as well as our curious contributions. When our core longing is lost or withers\, what appears is often anguish and pain. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nStalking Wild Psoas: Embodying Your Core Intelligence

SUMMARY:W I L D ~ Discerning Within:  A Collaboration with Kimberly Ann Johnson
DESCRIPTION:w i l d \nd i s c e r n m e n t \nDiscerning Within \nWild  ~ Feral ~ Savage ~ Fawning \nA Moving Collaboration between Liz Koch and Kimberly Johnson \nPresented November 2020. The video recording is available by purchasing a ticket below. \nSomeone once told me that civilization is the shared obliviousness to the fact that we haven’t gotten rid of wild things\, and that they dwell “within” us—somewhere beneath the threshold of normalcy. This wildness\, this darkness\, is not an “other.” We are continually sourced\, recreated\, and reconfigured here. \nBayo Akomolafe Finding the Dark: Decolonizing Darkness \n \nAlthough the dictionary defines the “wild” as untamable\, feral\, out of control\, riotous\, ridiculous\, rash\, stupid\, impractical\, and tempestuous\, it is by welcoming the wild that we avoid such antonyms as domesticated\, indifferent\, and unenthusiastic. By listening to our deep primal messages\, we reclaim our birthright as expressive\, dynamic\, and innovative beings. As we turn toward the core\, nourishing gestures\, similar to a blossoming flower\, feel lush within and enrich all who witness the splendor. Sustaining every gesture\, our wild psoas speaks the language of the heart\, and communicates what is held most dear within our bone – the felt-sense of being alive. \nSignaling survival responses\, this primal messenger relays disruptions and compensations that threaten our core integrity. Just as every coherent animal in the wild kingdom sends messages\, humans\, like all mammals\, gesture with the twitch of an ear\, a gleam in the eye\, a hair standing on end\, an arc of the spine. Ignoring the wild nature of psoas can be very dangerous.   \n(excerpted from Stalking Wild Psoas: Embodying Your Core Intelligence) \nHow do we know the difference between wild and ravenous? What happens when our inner wild woman is savage?  Can we be feral and live among each other? What happens when we can not discern our inner wild? What if our inner wild woman is muted or silent?  What if fawning is our first wild impulse?    Join the conversation and the movement…. \nKimberly Ann Johnson is the author of the  The Fourth Trimester. and her soon to be release Call Of The Wild (due out in April 2021). She is a Certified Sexological bodyworker and Somatic Experiencing practitioner specializing in birth injury\, birth trauma\, and sexual healing. A lifelong yoga student and teacher\, Kimberly has lead workshops throughout Thailand\, Malaysia\, Brazil\, Portugal and the US on the intersection of women’s sexuality and spirituality\, . After living in Brazil for eight years\, she now resides in San Diego\, CA and teaches Activating Your Inner Jaguar courses online. \n  \n \nLiz Koch  is an international educator\, author\, mother\, crone\, and creator of CoreAwareness™ focusing on awareness as key for developing human potential and awakening consciousness. With 40 years experience specializing in the human core\, Liz is recognized in the somatic\, bodywork\, and fitness professions as an authority on the core tissue called Psoas.  Both nationally and internationally published\, her works include The Psoas Book\, Unraveling Scoliosis CD\, Core Awareness; Enhancing Yoga\, Pilates\, Exercise & Dance\, Psoas & Back Pain CD\, Mother\, Maiden\, Crone: Our Pleasure Playlist and her latest book Stalking Wild Psoas: Embodying Your Core Intelligence.\n \n

SUMMARY:Changing The Language of Body ~ Participating With Your Organizing Intelligence
DESCRIPTION:Stalking Wild Psoas \nEmbodying Your Core Intelligence  \nEssay Six \n\n\n\nLanding & Locating \nPresented 2020. The video recording is available by purchasing a ticket below. \nParticipating With Your Organizing Intelligence \n\n\n\nA Conceptual Shift Made Potent Through Movement \n\n\n\n\n\n\nPsoas reveals the truth about our relationship with the earth…. \n\n\n\nOur arrival as newborns is a landing felt deep in our bone which continues to shape our flourishing gestures. Like a tuning fork produces a pure tone\, psoas is in resonance with the wisdom of our bone\, vibrating the very essence of life and putting a bounce in our step. Bone offers a lightness of being – a calling from the living earth. In contrast\, muscles are all about doing: fetching water and carrying wood. Marrow at the very center of bone nourishes the brain and spinal cord. To land in the marrow of our bones is to feel the essence of soul. Symbolic of the eternal in both myth and story\, bone is associated with what is lasting and most significant: blood\, power\, and embodiment. When something is felt deep in the bone\, it has landed and will stay with us forever. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe word “landing” is a term I use for feeling grounded and able to locate in space and time. Found within our bones\, the sense of landing is an essential kinetic ignition we share with all mammals. Any disruption confusing our ability to land and locate in time and space is signaled as fear by our primal psoas. As a bio-intelligent messenger\, psoas tracks safety\, every moment of every day. \n\n\n\nListening to and understanding what psoas communicates takes time to develop. If we are connected to ground and can feel the earth’s rhythms\, we are more readily available to be responsive and adaptive to subtle changes But if there is shock still reverberating there will be discord and disorientation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:FUNDAMENTALS: Jaw & Pelvic Connection (Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:FUNDAMENTALS \nJaw & Pelvic Connection \nPresented October 2020. The video recording available by purchasing a ticket below. \n \n  \n\n\n\nHip socket pain\, sacral dysfunction\, and low back issues often find resolution in the Jaw/Pelvic Connection.\nThe jaw and pelvis\, reflect one another\, and when disrupted can cause our psoas to message disharmony whether that originates from injury\, anger\, frustration\, willfulness\, scar tissue\, poor ergonomics or dental issues. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThinking and languaging spine as separate thoracic\, lumbar\, and cervical parts that move independently diminish the power of our core. From one end to the other\, all core movement is an expression of wholeness. Like a fish\, or for that matter a caterpillar\, our head to our tail moves as one. Stabilizing one end of the caterpillar by pressing down your finger only makes the other end of the caterpillar flail. The same is true for the head and pelvis. When one end of the spine is over stabilized (or unstable)\, the other end will become disorganized.\nTo either end\, our psoas messages all core disruptions.\nBy returning core to its fluid primal origins\, compensatory behaviors involving psoas often find resolution. \nStalking Wild Psoas: Embodying Your Core Intelligence

DESCRIPTION:CORE PSOAS \nRegaining Coherency Through Restorative Primal Gestures\nhttps://theembodimentconference.org/#LizKoch\n \n \n  \nCORE PSOAS: Regaining Coherency Through Primal Gestures   \nwith Liz Koch \nResolution and resiliency are found not in getting rid of trauma or releasing psoas\, but through the nourishing capacity to assimilate and integrate\, which grows a coherent sense of core embodiment. \nAlthough trauma is often thought to be the means and measure for transformation and even profound wisdom only when we are in a parasympathetic wave rhythm do we metabolize our experiences and evoke curiosity and creativity. Longing to play\, for example is a gesture that transcends trauma. \nThrough simple primal gestures we will explore core psoas as a bio-intelligent messenger of safety and coherency. \nExpressive and dynamic\, discover how your psoas as messenger informs you about safety and thriving.  Just as every coherent animal in the wild sends messages\, humans\, like all mammals\, gesture with the twitch of an ear\, a gleam in the eye\, a hair standing on end\, an arc of the spine. Regaining or growing coherency always begins with a lush juicy psoas.

SUMMARY:FLUID CORE: Coherency & Connective Tissue
DESCRIPTION:Fluid Core \nCoherency & Connective Tissue  \nPresented October 2020. The video recording is available by purchasing a ticket below. \na collaboration with  \nSue Hitzmann \nJoin our conversation to learn why healthy Connective Tissue\nis KEY to a resilient coherent nervous system. \nDiscover how self-help hydrating techniques\nhelp your nervous system function more efficiently\,\nreduce stress and anxiety\,\nand improve diaphragmatic and pelvic motion.  \n\n\n\n Rebalance Your Sympathetic NeuroCore \n\n\n\nIn my professional inquiry with psoas re-hydrating the sympathetic NeuroCore\nby playing with micro-undulations\, sound shaping\, and biomorphic expression\, I began nourishing the deepest layers of buoyant connective tissue. I discovered that over time what senses as dry\, tight\, or inflamed psoas can plump up and feel supple\, juicy\, and alive. \n\n\n\nLiz Koch ~ Stalking Wild Psoas: Embodying Your Core Intelligence \n\n\n\nMeet My Guest: \nSue Hitzmann\, MS\, CST\, NMT\, is a nationally recognized neuro-fascial manual therapist and teacher whose studies and explorations have culminated in the creation of the M.E.L.T. Method® (MELT). A revolutionary approach to pain-free fitness and longevity\, Melt Method is a self help technique for working with the connective tissue. Because the Psoas is deeply embedded in the sympathetic neuro-core\, hydrating connective tissue is an important key for resolving Psoas inflammation\, pain\, and tension. \n\n\n\nNeuroCore is a termed coined by neuro-fascial therapist Sue Hitzmann creator of The MELT Method® (2006) first heard during a conversation (2010) with author Liz Koch discussing the deepest “fascial bags” that enfold spinal cord\, psoas\, kidney\, adrenals: The NeuroCore System is comprised of a Reflexive Core – the 3D cylinder and the Rooted Core\, the head-to-toe neurofascial connection that allows our brain to sustain more efficient balance of our masses and spaces (another MELT Term) for the bony and joint parts of our body.(2018)

SUMMARY:Changing The Language of Body ~  Psoas as an Organ of Perception
DESCRIPTION:Stalking Wild Psoas \nEmbodying Your Core Intelligence  \nEssay Five \n\n\n\nCore Messenger \nPsoas as an Organ of Perception \nPresented 2020. The video recording is available by purchasing a ticket below. \n\n\n\nA Conceptual Shift Made Potent Through Movement \nOur languaging of body is rapidly changing. The limited\, isolated biomechanical language that once defined and shaped our perception of self and other is dissolving. Burgeoning is a biologically rich vocabulary based on a wild calling; coaxing and inviting us to deconstruct and decolonize our static conceptual framework so we can be “claimed” and emerge from isolation to embrace life as cooperative\, expressive\, and creative. Now is the time to dissolve the old story and inhabit the new paradigm of body as a living process.\nYou and I have a part to play. This new paradigm is paramount as it supports what always has been and always will be: an awakening of coherent life on Earth. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaking of psoas as muscle reduces this tissue to a dualist contrast of weak or strong\, inactive or active\, agonist or antagonist. Attempting to gain strength\, muscles are moved through cycles of repetition\, utilizing various forms of resistance\, such as weight to tear down as well as resistance to build up\, in an effort to develop mass\, support\, and shape. In the most sophisticated muscular-based systems\, resistance is a method of maturing the nervous system and removing scar tissue that is helpful for gaining muscular flexibility and strength. Either way\, simple or sophisticated\, psoas when defined as muscle results in a misunderstanding of great importance. Treating psoas as muscle proves detrimental and limiting to our capacity to receive pertinent information. If one understood there is no such thing as weak psoas there is only exhausted psoas\, would this change protocol? Wild psoas is liminal and orbital: a 360 directional receiver\, transmitter\, and inner communicator. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:FLUID CORE ~ Resiliency in the Face of Great Change (Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:F L U I D  C O R E \nResiliency in the Face of Great Change \nPresented October 2020. The video recording is available by purchasing a ticket below. \n \nFear is the only instinct that has the power to immobilize us. As an involuntary muscle\, psoas as part of the sympathetic neuro-core* is both a primal mover of our core integrity and part of our fear response.  When we misuse our psoas we ultimately end up energetically depleting our life force and physiologically stressing our adrenals. Because psoas communicates coherency\, it is of great interest to me what behaviors and activities support expressive resiliency and thus encourage a flowing responsiveness. The capacity to respond quickly yet with a consistency is what I refer to as having a stable yet dependable inner resilience. \n\n\n\nSurvival\, recovery\, and thriving are concepts associated with resilience and describe the stage at which a person\nmay be during or after facing adversity. The concept of “thriving” refers to a person’s\nability to go beyond his or her original level of functioning and\nto grow and function despite repeated exposure to stressful experiences  \n\n\n\nJanet Ledesma\, Conceptual Frameworks and Research Models on Resilience in Leadership \n\n\n\n\n\n\nLiz Koch  is an international educator\, author\, and creator of CoreAwareness™ focusing on awareness as key for developing human potential and awakening consciousness. With 45 years experience specializing in the human core\, Liz is recognized in the somatic\, bodywork\, and fitness professions as an authority on the core tissue called the Psoas.  Both nationally and internationally published\, her works include The Psoas Book\, Unraveling Scoliosis CD\, Core Awareness; Enhancing Yoga\, Pilates\, Exercise & Dance\, Psoas & Back Pain CD\, Mother\, Maiden\, Crone: Our Pleasure Playlist and her new book  Stalking Wild Psoas: Embodying Your Core Intelligence (2019 North Atlantic Books)

SUMMARY:FLUID CORE: Juicy Menopause (Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:FLUID CORE \nj u i c y  m e n o p a u s e \nbeing spit out of the moon cycle changes just about everything….and reveals so much needed nourishment  \nPresented September 2020. The video recording is available by purchasing a ticket below. \n \nRose Oil \nfresh rose petals gathered under the early summer sun\nsteeped with wild clover and amber in jojoba oil\nand kissed to completion with pure rose essential oil \n  \nThe blossoming sexuality of the mature woman and the succulent fruiting of sexual health in the vitality of the crone…. \nSlippery When Wet ~ Staying Juicy ~ ~~ When I turned 42\, I gave birth to my 3rd child. Being an avid breastfeeding mom\, postpartum and peri-menopause collided head on one into the other.  I felt all the bliss of being a source of nourishment while simultaneously finding myself grieving the end of my moon cycles.  Unresponsive scare tissue along my perineum\, a result of a tear during my first birth\, retore with each consecutive vaginal birth\, was now beginning to thin and become a source of irritation. I didn’t know with each healthy birth what I know now; scare tissue needs to be addressed immediately and continually until it dissolves back into healthy tissue. Fortunately I was introduced to the concept of fluid movement and the work of Somatic Pioneer Emilie Conrad’s Continuum Movement.  Emilie is known in her field for her work with the fluid system as it applies to spinal cord injury.Well into in her mid seventies Emilie is one juicy woman; her skin vibrates with lushness\, her mind is incredibly alert\, and she exudes a living Eros\, which tends to send goosebumps through every woman and man that watches her move. She taught me that all tissue needs hydrating (including our brains!) not simply through monitoring liquid intake but by actually igniting the natural wave motion of cells\, organs\, and connective tissue...I learned that aging is not the same thing as drying out and that what most of us assume is aging is really the result of drying out.  By accessing the mysterious substance of fluid within our  own system we enter a boundless source of pleasure and nourishment…. far reaching consequences affect our consciousness far beyond our personal boundaries…we enter a universal consciousnesses that recognizes pleasure not as isolated titillation but as life’s mysterious and transformative substance….  \n                                                                                                                                                                          Excerpted from Maiden\, Mother\, Crone: Our Pleasure Play List

SUMMARY:FUNDAMENTALS: The Hip\, Knee\, Foot\, Psoas Connection (Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:FUNDAMENTALS \n The Hip\, Knee\, Foot\, Psoas Connection\n \nPresented September 2020. The video recording is available by purchasing a ticket below. \n \n\n\n\nJoints articulate and transfer weight from one bone to another\, creating range of motion\, cushioning the force of gravity\, and reverberating ground force reaction (rebound). Energetically\, the joints link together like pearls on a string. When bones are not centered in their axis\, the individual joint (like the pearl) is stressed and therefore so are all the other joints in the body. Just as pulling on one pearl affects all the other pearls in a necklace\, a dysfunctional joint that is compressed\, unstable\, or stressed disrupts the whole skeletal system. A problem in a knee or shoulder socket\, for example\, is never an isolated problem. Stress on one joint not only causes other joints to be dysfunctional\, but also causes compensations of muscular and connective tissue through- out the body. \nIf we want core integrity\, a relationship between all of the joints is crucial. A supple psoas supports the continuum and informs us when proprioception is diminished. Discover the relationship between the ankle\, knee\, hip and a dynamic fluid psoas  throughout WALKING

SUMMARY:Unraveling Scoliosis Workshop (Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:Unraveling Scoliosis Workshop  \nPresented September 2020. The video recording is available by purchasing a ticket below. \n \n  \nMy goal in this 3-hour introduction workshop is  to shift our attention from fixing a problem to becoming curious about a living process of inquiry. \nThe pattern of spiraling tension in the body is like untying a knot.  Force from the outward does not immediately work; rather one must go into the center of the knot and soften to release and resolve the tension patterns.  The unraveling process\, is an inner path that winds down and around the deepest emotions of fears\, sorrow\, frustration and despairs. \nToday there are many alternatives to surgery that bring structural integrity\, increased awareness\, emotional stability and offer our selves a positive experience of our being body. \nFreeing the spine from the manifestations of scoliosis entails reconnecting to our inner sensations.  Rather than recoil from feelings\, it requires learning to foster the courage to explore physical and emotional tension and core expressions. To discover the paradox that becoming soft inside creates the strength needed to unravel and offers the dynamic potential for change. \nPersonal health becomes synonymous with empowerment and the ability to recognize our choices.  This process of self-discovery offers a significant life experience. By hydrating all tissue we sense feelings of resiliency. By nourishing our energy and nervous system we provide a deep relationship to gravity and belonging. By sensing the balance and  support found within our bones\, a sense of self  literally becomes a core of integrity capable of standing balanced and firm on our own two feet.
