We had such a great time in Brentwood, MO last weekend learning about patho and non-patho compensatory Left AIC patterns and positions. Position and Perspective were the “P” words of the weekend, with nearly all of us getting an enhanced perspective on the relationship of the position of the pelvis and femurs. Ron reminds me often that Myokinematic Restoration is a class about relationships, and the amazing people of this class made me appreciate the relationships of people as I made new friends while relating the importance of the position of our pelvis as it relates to performance.
We had stellar hosts at St. Louis City Fitness with the Mother/Son super star team of Marcia and Justin with their amazing colleagues Anne, Debbie, and Emilee. They all helped me relate Myokinematic Restoration to Gyrotonics and Pilates and gave me a new perspective on how restoring position and patterns can be implemented within their gym.
Major League Baseball was well represented with Chris, Adam, Wade, Josh, and Sam in attendance. The Cardinals, Athletics, and Reds are amazingly lucky to have a relationship with these fantastic fellas to provide their perspective on the body in order to reduce pathology and improve performance.
Kelli, Lauren, Josh, and Alena represented smaller outpatient Physical Therapy clinics and were an absolute joy to have in class. It was their first PRI course and they will now doubt bring their new perspective of patterns and positions back to their communities which will likely facilitate an enhanced relationship with their patients and clients.
Ambrose was absolutely Lovely to have in class and was our PT student representative. He was introduced to PRI at his PT school, which is fantastic to hear that a PRI perspective is being related to students at the beginning of their career.
St. Louis is known as being the gateway to the west, and this was certainly a class that provided a gateway to build relationships and change perspectives and patterns. Thanks for hosting St. Louis City Fitness!!
