Do you feel tightness in your shoulders that extends out to your toenails, earlobes and spine?

Learn to recover from the demands of daily life with the
Self-Care Series – instructor Julia Lamm, RYT-200

Shoulder, Upper Back, Arm and Wrist Pain, along with postural alignment dysfunction is at an all-time high. We LOVE our cell phones, mp3 players, tablets and kindle. But there are consequences from the downward position of our heads and forward thrust of the cervical spine that causes excessive strain on our entire spinal system.

This workshop will guide you through unique Yoga Tune Up® Self-massage techniques and corrective exercises that will roll out tension, improve your breathing and break dysfunctional movement patterns in the upper body.
Saturday, June 27th 12:00-2:00 pm
Workshop Cost – $30
Pair of Tune-Up Therapy Balls – $15
(Therapy balls are most beneficial when closest to skin & muscles – please wear light clothing)
