This workshop will address the basic theory underlying Klein Technique™. We will go into some depth concerning the concepts of connection, integration, coordination, and the synergy of the deep muscles of postural support. We will discuss how energy and structure work together in the body focusing on the anatomy of these muscles: the psoas, the hamstrings, the pelvic floor, and the six external rotators. Klein Technique™ works on the level of the bone, the deepest, densest structural tissue in the body that conducts the greatest amount of energy. The bone connects energy to structure, heaven to earth, and enables us to move from our deepest essential self. Through the interweaving of theory and practice, this workshop will ground you in the theoretical and anatomical concepts of Klein Technique.
