Fluid Movement Begins with Aligned Posture
by Judy Heller, March 02, 2020
We will be experience 90 minutes more of daylight by March 31st. Walking is our default gait. Most often little thought is given to 'how am I walking?' I observe people walking when I am out and about, seeing new clients or training groups. I keep circling back to movement patterning: the lack of posture and body awareness. As many of you know, I believe in returning to basics. So this tip suggests you stand in front of a mirror and take inventory of your posture.
Stand in front of a mirror. Is your head level, shoulders even, are you hands parallel to your side or do you see more of the back of your hand; can you tell if your hips are level? Turn to your right side then left. Watch people when out and about. What feels 'normal' may not be correctly aligned. When seated, are you sitting upright, on your 'sits' bones?
