anatomy trains uk

Antrim

Tom says: “I developed the Anatomy Trains during the 1990’s, as a game for students to play when I was teaching Fascial Anatomy at the Rolf Institute. I was inspired by Ida Rolf, and have been practicing the deep fascial work I learned from her since 1976. “But when I came to try to teach, all the books you can find put forward the ‘single-muscle’ theory. Ida Rolf kept saying, “It’s all connected through the fascia.” Other than invoking the image of a grapefruit or a loofah, how do you make this real? How do you get ‘actionable intelligence’ on the functioning of the whole musculoskeletal system? “Just as an exercise to cement the students’ knowledge, I began stringing the muscles together through the fascia. This idea was initiated when Dr Jim Oschman gave me an article by Raymond Dart (the anthropologist and Alexander Technique student) linking the muscle in the trunk in a double-spiral arrangement (which shows up here as part of the Spiral Line). “My reaction was, “Why stop there?” From this base, I expanded Dart’s idea to the whole body, to help students see connections by stringing muscles together. The ‘rules’ are that the connections have to follow the grain in the fascial fabric in more or less a straight line, without breaks or changing levels.

adam walder pilates and personal training

I had suffered a few injuries that put me out of action for months at a time, which meant my weight ballooned up and down quite regularly. I was very unhappy with how I felt and looked, so I decided to make a change on my own. In the beginning I didn’t know too much about exercise or nutrition and just guessed at what I should do, and continued competing. The results were minimal. After a few more years my size had changed somewhat, but once again another injury stopped me in my tracks. This time I had broken my collarbone and had 4 months out over Christmas, which meant my weight went back up. I knew this time I had to make the right change and decided to go to my local gym for the first time. The staff at the gym were extremely friendly and helpful and even though I found it daunting at first, I began to really enjoy it. I knew that this was what I wanted to do for a living after my first week – the feeling I felt inside was incredible – I had so much more energy and I felt far more confident. At that moment I made the decision that if I had the opportunity to enable other people to feel like this then I would be an extremely happy man.”

eilidh swan yoga

My experience with yoga had been lightly scattered in-between other activities throughout my life, probably becoming more prominent in my early twenties and primarily used as a form of physical exercise. I was one of those people who left before Savasana because it gave my mind too much space and time to run free - in all honestly I found it relatively torturous and uncomfortable. At this point movement was for physical gain and mental distraction - which I’m sure many people can relate to. I had experienced issues with my mental health from a very young age and in 2015 was diagnosed with BPD. During that year I had two hospital admissions for issues relating to severe self harming and substance abuse. During my time as an inpatient we were offered yoga as a form of therapy, which I utilised but could not fully hold space for at the time, although the teacher gave me hope which was enough. Upon leaving I discovered the practice of Ashtanga with my wonderful teacher Mo Still based in Aberdeenshire. The structure, asana, pranayama and power filled me and I practiced daily. I don’t want to suggest that yoga can fix all problems, physical and mental, but what I will say is that having a practice to call my own and follow daily was crucial in my recovery.

london fields fitness studio

Welcome to London Fields Fitness Studio (Est.2010), founded by fitness superstar Sapan Sehgal. His philosophy for the studio is to provide fun and affordable fitness for the community, so that even if you've lost your job or eaten a little too much Deliveroo this month, you can still squeeze a workout into the budget without breaking the bank! Because #Science, we know that regular exercise is crucial to maintaining good physical and even mental health, so it's our job to make it as enjoyable and accessible as possible for everyone, from Auntie May who's a little on the heavy side to Nephew Billie who's at college, living on pot noodles. After years working in commercial central London gyms, Sapan wanted to create the anti-gym; a fun and friendly space, full of laughs and good times, that anyone and everyone would feel welcome in- less machines, less mirrors. We pride ourselves on leaving our fitfam with a warm and fuzzy feeling after class, and super sore muscles the next day! We love developing new and exciting classes and innovations that are unique to the studio e.g. Booty Camp, YogaHIIT, Lovercise and HulaFit. We are big believers in body-weight based exercises and work hard to encourage originality and creativity amongst our instructors within that framework.

Penarth

Fitness classes in Penarth, Vale of Glamorgan - Zumba | Yoga | Strong | HITT | Circuits | Insanity In 2010 and after nearly 13 years of Nursing, mostly within Critical Care, I realized it was becoming a huge challenge to keep a healthy work life balance. My daughter was a toddler who didn’t like to sleep and as our families lived too far away to help on the daily childcare, it was time for a change. I decided to take a career break and train as a fitness Instructor so I could continue working but in a more flexible way. It was initially intended as an interim measure but I have never looked back. It all started with Zumba Fitness. At the time it was deemed the latest fitness craze. I became qualified as an ETM (Exercise to music) Instuctor and certified in Zumba Fitness before running a couple of classes in my local town. I continued to add to that over the years and I now teach Zumba Gold, Strong nation and I am certified in Zumba Toning, Zumba Sentao. I am a fully qualified Personal Trainer and a Hatha Yoga Teacher certified in Ashtanga, Pre and Post Natal Yoga and SUP Yoga (Stand up Paddle board) Yoga. I think that it is vital to keep enhancing your skills and knowledge to keep your classes fresh and exciting!

IT IS MY MISSION TO HELP PEOPLE THAT LOVE ELECTRONIC MUSIC AND CLUBBING TO ENJOY EXERCISE. THE BENEFITS OF A REGULAR MOVEMENT PRACTICE ARE ENDLESS — IMPROVED CONFIDENCE, MENTAL CLARITY, REDUCED ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION, AND HUNDREDS OF PHYSICAL BENEFITS FOR A LONGER AND MORE FULFILLED LIFE. I SEQUENCE MY CLASSES SO THAT YOU CAN ACHIEVE A FLOW STATE AS YOU SWEAT, WHICH LIKE A MEDITATION, GIVES YOUR MIND A BREAK FROM THE STRESSES OF EVERYDAY LIFE TO WORK TOWARDS EQUILIBRIUM. IT’S A NO-BRAINER, A TOTAL GAME-CHANGER, AND I CAN’T WAIT TO SHARE THIS WITH YOU. I USED TO SPEND HOURS DOING CARDIO UNTIL THE ‘CALORIES BURNED’ NUMBER HIT THE NUMBER I WANTED, AS WELL AS CONSTANTLY CHECKING THE NUMBERS ON MY WEIGHING SCALES AND ON THE LABELS OF EVERYTHING I ATE. I’VE EXPERIENCED WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO FEEL LIKE MY BODY WASN’T ENOUGH, AND EXERCISED FOR THE WRONG REASONS. THESE ARE HARD HABITS TO BREAK FROM, BUT THE TRANSITION HAPPENED FOR ME WHEN I FOUND A MOVEMENT PRACTICE THAT MADE ME THRIVE. A PRACTICE THAT MADE ME FEEL GOOD DURING THE MOVEMENT, NOT JUST BECAUSE I GOT THROUGH A WORKOUT. I WILL HOLD A SPACE FOR YOU TO EXPLORE YOUR BODY WITH A NON-JUDGEMENTAL AND NON-MILITARY APPROACH. I WILL ENCOURAGE THAT YOU LISTEN TO THE SENSATIONS YOU FEEL AS YOU MOVE AND ADAPT TO SUIT YOUR BODY.
