This workshop is designed for mothers who have had a baby at least six weeks previously

There will be a limit of 10 people to ensure maximum attention.

You will be taught how:

• to activate your pelvic floor in the safest way possible
• breathing can affect your muscle recruitment and cause a bulging belly
• to regain the use of your stomach muscles
• to repair torn stomach muscles using exercises
• to incorporate these exercises into your already busy schedule
• to avoid stress incontinence

You will be given an opportunity to join a follow class to measure your progress and provide encouragement.

The choice of Saturday will hopefully enable fathers to be able to look after the baby and you to get some much needed attention.

Date: Please telephone for details of the next workshop

This two hour workshop has developed as a result of my Osteopathic Patients constantly telling me: 'I know I have poor posture, but I don't know how to improve it!'

Unless we have studied dance, or been to finishing school, very few of us have been taught posture and I have personally struggled with my own for many years.

This two hour workshop will involve us in learning how to:

• Stand in a way which elongates our spine (see Article on Standing Posture)
• Walk in a way which reduces stress on our joints
• Sit in a way which allows us to prevent slouching
• Improve our posture enough to reduce back ache, headaches and shoulder tension
• Incorporate some easy tension relieving exercises into our daily lives

At the end of the workshop which is held in a studio setting for maximum benefit, I will show you some postural aids which can help with seated and standing posture.
