Robert Schleip

I am just back from an awe inspiring and life changing educational experience in Germany at Ulm University where the 3rd Fascial Summer School took place. A group of only 75 of us that included medical professionals , researchers, body workers and movement therapists were in attendance. We had the incredible privilege of sitting in on the the latest and most exciting research that is being done on fascia and a lot of this translates to how we work with the body in movement. It seems the landscape of what we know about the human body because of all this groundbreaking research is changing month by month . Leading scientist like Carla Stecco, Andre Vleming, Tom Finley and the brilliant Robert Schleip gave us tons and tons of jaw dropping information. We were also privy to asking these awesome intellects questions. Although intimidating , it really helped a great deal to translate the sometimes heady and always scientific language into practical knowledge and use to the everyday person.

During the next few months , I will be going through the enormous amount of studies, articles and notes that I have gathered on this work. I plan to present blogs and podcasts on the site about specific info about the fascia and how to train it. I am also in the process of developing some fun and informative live classes.

Our first short and fun introduction into Flossing the Fascia will be in Asheville at Fusion Pilates on wed Oct 8th at 7pm until 8pm. If you’re in the region – come join us!  (Optional suggested donation of $10 to be donated to MANNA Food Bank. Call 828.333.4611 if interested.)
