Jaw & Order

Using a pencil to reset the balance of jaw tension, this class begins with a generalized shoulder warmup and then moves into seated upper body exercises on the Galileo. Face and scalp massage prepare the areas of focus for new exploration of ranges of motion. Then we add a pencil between the teeth to to access the masseter muscle and set it on " stretch", elongating it's relationship with the shoulder girdle and providing an additional proprioceptive point of reference for the axis of the skull.

Class ends with constructive rest in an organic happy baby position, releasing the pelvis and resting into the renewed length of the spine from cranium to sacrum.
