THE TEN SERIES

PHASE ONE:

1. Freeing the shoulder and pelvis, and allowing for improved breathing.
2. Establish equal support on both legs/feet from the ground, improving ankle and foot functionality.
3. Work the sides of the body, which balances the relationship between the front/back and fleshes out a sense of 3-dimensionality.
PHASE TWO:

4. Work the inside of the legs from the feet to the pelvis, beginning to establish core support for the pelvic floor.
5. Balance superficial and deep structures in the abdominal region, continuing to build the core.
6. Free the sacrum and lengthen the back line of the body.
7. Relate the head and neck to the rest of the body.
Phase three:

8 & 9. Integrate functional movement into the core of the body.
10. Scan the entire body and relate it to itself as best as possible, sealing things back up. The client is ready to continue their journey on their own.
