Description
When the shoulder girdle moves correctly, great function is invited. Each bone of the shoulder girdle; the cravicles, the scapulae and the humerus bone, have a unique rhythm of movement to facilitate the arm moving in space.
A great scapular-humeral rhythm will invite the correct phrasing of the arm and core muscles. When you get a client to better use her shoulder girdle, her arm strength, posture and connection to the core will improve. Learn how this rhythm works and how to help your clients improve theirs.

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! Loved it all! Plenty of exercises to practice on and clear idea of the bones moving on each other for optimal organisation! Loved it!

wonderful presentation
Caroline B--- QuizpageId 13217
Once again Lesley, you provide such precise and at the same time including material. As a former dancer, I particularly appreciate the richness of your ressources and imagery (BMC, Feldenkrais, Eric Franklyn, Bertenieff...). Also I don't think I have complimented you for your anatomy paintings which to me are more like dancing portraits. I find them really beautiful and alive. There is so much poetry in your deep understanding of the body. Thank you for sharing it.
Emanuela M--- QuizpageId 13217
Great information. I really like the workshops by this instructor.
Eileen M--- QuizpageId 13217

Eye-opening info on how the scapula moves around the ribcage!
Sara A--- QuizpageId 13217
Great class - helped with cueing
Kris B--- QuizpageId 13217
excellent! After watching Lesley's presentation, I will be teaching my clients in a completely different way. Some of my cues have been hindering my clients in their ability to find proper scapular humeral rhythm and proper posture...

Thank you.
Nancy M--- QuizpageId 13217
This was fantastic. It helped me look for how someone is moving in the shoulder girdle and what to watch for.
Cynthia W--- QuizpageId 13217

Jennifer S--- QuizpageId 13217
Enjoyed getting some more detail... This is helping my clients and myself but I am having to practice teach on a teacher friend!
Daniella T--- QuizpageId 13217
Excellent presentation of concepts and application. I really appreciate the slow detailed pace of how to correct S-T and G-H mechanics during the more basic and achievable Pilates exercises - I will apply this to my patients' care! The model was perfect for this video - very clear.
Kayla P--- QuizpageId 13217
Awesome awesome workshop. this was the exact one that I needed. Thank you so so so much...
Ritu N--- QuizpageId 13217
great
Teresa G--- QuizpageId 13217
This was great! The imagery and ability to watch a body in motion really helped. There were lots of useful variations to get the same effect. I also like seeing two different bodies doing the same exercises and watching where the weaknesses were for each person.
Mavra R--- QuizpageId 13217
I really enjoyed the workshop. Many things to process and definitely I have to watch again. :)
Karin N--- QuizpageId 13217
Great visuals and cues. Loved diving deeper into the shoulder!
Erin E--- QuizpageId 13217
Dynamic shoulder stabilization is something I have been struggling to find in my own body for awhile now and I definitely have a clearer picture of what I am going for and plenty of new ideas of how to work on it after watching this workshop!
Ginger P--- QuizpageId 13217
Good Info
Renee R--- QuizpageId 13217
I found it helpful to see the hands on help to guide to client. The images were helpful too.
Nichelle M--- QuizpageId 13217
Fantastic! 😊ðŸ‘
Tiffany R--- QuizpageId 13217
She is legit the nutty professor. I dig that even with LP's vast knowledge, she still gets flummoxed and it makes me feel like it's OK if I don't say the perfect thing all the time - even though my brain works faster than my mouth. I request for an osteoporosis course, please!
Alida E--- QuizpageId 13217
Great workshop. Loved coming back to the idea of scapular revolution from my dance training days which I had sort of forgotten about. Would have loved more examples of exercises on a mat rather than reformer. Thanks!
Meredith S--- QuizpageId 13217
Thank you for this workshop. I enjoy the many examples and exercises given (second video) to apply the information from the first video. It is very straight forward and easy to understand - although challenging to physically apply.
Elizabeth G--- QuizpageId 13217

great course
Maria C--- QuizpageId 13217
Very useful explanations and applications to classic equipment repertoire
Parker S--- QuizpageId 13217
This workshop was very informative. I like how Lesley breaks down the mechanics of the shoulder girdle and provides exercises to isolate each muscle. I had to watch it more than once to absorb everything. Lesley is very detailed and specific in her cuing and corrections, and it has given me a lot to think about in working with my own clients. I am looking forward to putting this workshop to good use with clients experiencing shoulder dysfunction.
Cassidy M--- QuizpageId 13217
Thank you for the informative workshop. I look forward to reviewing it again and again and bringing it into my teaching. I like how the over active lats were addressed and new cues on how to help our clients feel the gliding of the scapula.
Sandy B--- QuizpageId 13217
This was excellent. Amy was so patient with Lesley's guidance. I learned so much. Thank you!
Amy S--- QuizpageId 13217
A great video to learn the placement of the shoulder blades - the material Lesley covered , the use of her language, and anatomy references are excellent .
