FAMO Practice 1
Throughout By the end of the course, you will have a nuanced understanding and a felt sense of a multidimensional set of our favorite FAMO exercises, ready to use in your personal practice and with clients.
Experience has shown that the movements and techniques are well-suited for group classes, personalized training, and therapeutic settings, using body-minded movement to enhance physical functionality and psycho-emotional wellbeing.
While all myofascial meridians are considered, special emphasis is placed on the Superficial Back Line and Superficial Front Line due to their essential roles in postural balance, movement production, and creating a feeling of grounded lift in the body-mind. Among the 27 primary exercises are the 14 used for posture-based movement strategies in the FAMO Body Reading & Rebalancing course.
