Even if you left the Gokhale Method 101 class with very good posture,
it can be easy to slip back into old habits and ways of moving. You may notice that you
begin to slouch, or you don't pay as much attention to the correct shape of your feet.
Part of this is due to natural mimicry. We don't see a lot of good posture displayed
in our world, so it can be difficult to reinforce healthy movement. To help counter this
slippage, we are pleased to announce the start of refresher workshops for those who have
completed Gokhale Method 101. This one hour workshop will focus on reviewing the basics
of the technique, reengaging your muscle memory, and addressing any new issues or questions
you may have encountered.
Schedule for GM 101 Refresher Class:
Friday, May 29th, 12:00-1:00pm
Thursday, June 11th, 9:00-10:00am
Tuesday, June 23rd, 5:30-6:30pm
Cost: $35
To register for this class, please call (650)-324-3244.

Some further areas of study our students have explored are:
Healthy
Form for the Office Worker Don't let
your work get the best of you. Heal and prevent
injuries by learning new ways to approach everyday
activities, such as typing, writing, carrying
heavy loads, or climbing stairs.
Healthy
Form for Your Kids The way you carry,
handle, seat, and lay down your infant influences
his or her structure for life. The activities
and furniture you choose, and the guidelines
and example you give your children as they
grow have life-long impact. Start your children
out with healthy form that will support them
against pain and injury, and enhance their
appearance, performance, and self-esteem.
Healthy
Form for Athletes In any athletic
endeavor, excellent form allows for peak performance
while reducing risk of injury. Give yourself
a structural advantage by learning to articulate
your body well for any sport.
Healthy
Form for Performers Professional actors,
musicians and performing arts enthusiasts alike
have found these classes extremely useful in
enhancing their performance, comfort, body
awareness, and ability to prevent injury.
Healthy
Form for Travelers Learn how to navigate
poor seating, unfamiliar beds, long waits,
heavy loads, and limited mobility while traveling.
Healthy
Form for Special Health Needs If you
suffer from an ailment, working on your structure
may benefit you. Many health conditions, both
mental and physical, are caused or worsened
by muscular tension and postural distortion. Students
receiving specialized care have reported improvements
in musculoskeletal health, energy level, depression,
respiratory function, urinary incontinence,
chronic constipation, and menstrual cramping
and irregularity.
