This is our first neck and pelvis specific class.The Cervical Spine is an area many people struggle with. They lack overall strength and neurological control in this area, and many have developed the dreaded STI here - a Shitty Tissue Issue. If you have neck problems it's important to strengthen the neck. This is an area that's undertrained in most programs.
Another area that's undertrained is the pelvis. It's important to teach your body how to dissociate your pelvis from your lumbar spine and your hips - so we'll work on a lot of drills that will develop neurological control to this area and teach you how to dissociate. Some people will struggle with these movements in the beginning, but with more repetition and practice you will get better and better. It might be frustrating in the beginning due to a lack of body control, but stay with it.
I hope you enjoy the class!
