Myofascial Release Workshop

Myofascial Release

Workshop with Sarah Stephan

12 – 2p

Saturday, Feb 21

Working the same muscle pattern over & over creates knots & bumps in the soft tissues. Muscles & nerves get tethered together and stop functioning properly. Chronic tightness sets in. Performance drops. Risk of injury goes up.

Myofascial Release (MFR) is a technique that uses a combination of tennis balls & mild stretching so your body starts to move and feel like a rubber band– not a guitar string.

$30/pp

No yoga experience necessary.

Space is limited. Reserve your spot today.

Ideal for Runners, Cyclists, Skiers, Golfers + Tennis Players!
