I had the distinct pleasure of furthering my Pelvis Restoration faculty training at the home field in Lincoln, NE under the tutelage of the Pelvis course GOAT, Lori Thomsen. Lori has not only been teaching this material since the pelvis course started, but was a primary influence on the content and focus of this course.
We had a great group of in person and live stream attendees with excellent questions that drove clarity and connections around the “foundation of our building”, the pelvic ring.
We did our best to appreciate that the pelvic position acronyms, while at times daunting, are just explaining a tri-planar position of the inlet and outlet. Through testing of femoral and costal motion we gained insight into pelvic positioning and pattern status. The relationships between the femur, ribs, and the pelvis epitomize the integrated and integral nature of the course content.
While Lori battled the remnants of a cold that stole her voice by the end of the course, her commitment to this material has never weakened. I am humbled and excited to get the opportunity to carry the torch in the future, my respect for this material has never been greater or deeper.
I would especially like to thank Ann Simsar, DPT from the Hruska Clinic for attending and providing clarity and insight throughout, especially in regards to clinical application.
