Leslie is fast becoming one of my favorite instructor. In this work she is able bring so many different disciplines into her teaching... As a movement professional for more than 30 years, as well as a Myoskeletal Alignment Therapist for 17 of those years I find it very refreshing to have someone who is able to convey the concepts of movement, structure, interdependence of systems, howGerolyn W
Featured Student Feedback
Overall good presentation with demonstrative application.( exception is the anatomy presented was less than clear)
Thank you so much!
Picked up some new cues
Loved the explanations of the bone rhythms.
This course was excellent. I appreciate the PDF handout as the anatomy stuff was really technical and I needed to rewatch/listen to really absorb it. Love Lesley Powell's instruction and hope to see more!
I love Lesley Powell and think she is very direct and clear with her instruction. This material and exercises are great, I did find I needed to rewatch the videos and do it to actually get it to sink in.
I enjoyed the focus on bone ryhthms and importance of glutes to allow hip flexors to relax.
Interesting and informative.
This is great! I love learning about the feet and how they affect the rest of the body.

Great workshop with lots of useful info!
Great help for hyperextension, cues to help clients feel their back line supporting their knees and ankles.
The first time I’ve studied bone rhythms in the feet. Very informative
This seminar has already helped my feet and hips! Thanks to Lesley Powell for making the the harder concepts accessible.
I really enjoyed how the workshop was broken up into sessions. It made the information easier to process
Thank you Leslie. Your work sheds more light on the proper biomechanics and movement anatomy we all aspire to in ourselves and for our clients.
Very informative. Already thinking about how to apply information in my sessions
Good information to help with gait training.
All about the feet! Loved it.
Loved this insight from the ground up!
Lesley Powell is my spirit animal
