New! Helping Hands; Relaxing & Energizing Our Hands for Work & Recreation
This hands-on workshop (pardon the pun...) combines a posturally-supportive Alexander Technique procedure called Hands on the Back of the Chair with energizing Qi Gong exercises for wrists, hands, and fingers. You will learn how to integrate hand activity with your musculoskeletal support system which helps you hold and manipulate things with greater ease and skill, and to gesture with appropriate expressiveness.
