The Purpose
This is a 4-hour module and program focussing in on the WHY behind your WHAT! In each module, we tap into Nora St. John, MS, creator of Balanced Body Education and Advanced Movement Principles. With her academic background + rich understanding of MVMT, we'll get beyond WHAT the exercise is and get inside WHY you're teaching it to the body or bodies in front of you.
In FIND CENTER, Erika will complement and couple MVMT strategies and FUNctional ways to focus on these academic concepts alongside Nora's lecture and give you ideas and exercises to refresh your brain and body for many moons to come.
