The Science of Rolling
Day 1

 

This module introduces the science of how and why self-massage works and offers the latest on fascial research, pain science and therapy ball applications for multiple populations. You will learn techniques to:

 

  • Skillfully lead classes through 6 step-by-step, proven, whole-body sequences—approved by physical therapists, pain medicine specialists, and chiropractors—that can affect positive changes in the rotator cuff, upper back, lower back, neck, jaw, hips, IT band and feet.
  • Maintain your body and prevent injuries using self-care strategies with the original Yoga Tune Up therapy balls.
  • Identify bony landmarks, muscular attachments, and fascia geography to enhance your teaching and personal daily practice.
  • Deepen your understanding of pain physiology and how the therapy balls can help alleviate pain.

 

 

Ball Sequencing + Innovation
Day 2

 

In this module we learn soft-tissue self-care solutions for every client and condition utilizing all four different sizes of Roll Model therapy balls. You will refine your teaching skills and discover how to craft innovative moves and sequences for any individual or community.

 

  • Explore self-myofascial release in areas of your body frequently over-used, like the hands and knees, or completely ignored like the diaphragm and pelvic floor. We will practice 6 sequences (different ones than in Science of Rolling).
  • Through Zoom breakout rooms, you will improve classroom demonstration of therapy ball techniques and trouble-shoot classroom pitfalls and challenges when presenting to beginners or more experienced students.
  • Learn the art of crafting test/retest scenarios for instant feedback of improved function or reduced pain.
  • Further refine your anatomical fluency of bony landmarks, muscular attachments, and the fascial seam-system through self-mapping strategies.

 

The RMM Training is open to all levels of student/ educator/clinician. There is no pre-requisite to attend except an interest in diving deep into the techniques and logic of rolling, why it works and how to share it with others.

 

Upon completion of this training you will be able to skillfully incorporate RMM balls and techniques into your teaching.

Can’t wait for Ball Sequencing and Innovation next week!!
I taught this morning and people were so excited!"
