Description

Pelvis in Two Halves Part 1
Working with a client who very recently had a hip replacement, Nikki Chrysostomou thoroughly and clearly explains the details of the pelvis. From the bones to the joints and finally the ligaments, Nikki teaches creative and challenging ways to bring pain-free movement to everyday life.

Nikki’s knowledge of cranial-sacral health is especially fascinating, and reminds us just how incredible our bodies are. Sharing her knowledge of the pelvis and its functions, Nikki guides you through specific exercises for mobility and stability of the SI joint and offers progressions and modifications for many of the moves.

Along with her vast knowledge of anatomy, Nikki’s passion for movement is clear in every exercise demonstrated. She also recommends the safest and easiest ways to get in and out of exercises that might require a more complicated setup.

Pelvis in Two Halves Part 2
Nikki Chrysostomou takes you into a deep dive into the muscles of the pelvis. For each muscle or muscle group, she offers a visual of the anatomy, a breakdown of how it's meant to work, and multiple exercises to create strength and balance.

Nikki is generous with her extensive anatomical knowledge and presents it in a way that is both educational and interesting.

This workshop will give you the tools to apply anatomy as you work with your clients and help them build balanced movement patterns.
