Unlocking the Multifaceted Role of Fascia in Movement Coordination

Robert will delve into the following topics with you:

  • Elastin myth: Why collagen has greater spring.
  • Fascial similarities: Gazelles, kangaroos, and homo sapiens. 
  • Stretch-shortening cycle reinterpreted: Titin fibres, spindle reflex enhancement or pure collagen?
  • Human throwing talent: What role do pelvic rotation and diagonal fascial slings play? And how can we implement this evolutionary achievement in modern life without breaking windows, without tearing fibres and with a lot of fun? 
  • Super-stiffness as an athletic resource: Why humans don't have a long hamstring muscle in the abdominal area. 
  • External and internal trampolines: When are which elastic fibres at ease and when are they trained?
  • Barefoot mentality with and without shoes: How can we increase sensory foot contact and dynamic tension regulation in the forefoot in everyday life?
  • Catapult mechanism versus dampening: Throwing and catching, jumping and landing; which fibres are in the foreground and when? 
  • Cat paws: The role of anticipatory preload adaptation. 
  • Swedish gymnastics: Still great, or a case for the moth box? 
  • Smart injury prevention: In which micro-moments and aspects of movement is increased mindfulness particularly helpful? And which load dosages are specifically recommended for which age group, fascial type, and level of experience? 
  • Antidepressant aspects of hopping and the like: How lasting are the effects and what role do different rhythms play? 
  • Daily dose of inner ease: Are we as old as our fascia? Practical tips on how we can bring more vigour, lightness, suppleness, and elegance into our lives. 
Karin will put the complex interplay of fascia and muscles during springy movements into practice. Prepare to bounce, swing, and land light-footedly while boosting your mood on the mat. In this purposeful and buoyant lesson, she won't be pulling anything out of the moth box. Everything you will experience comes from Karin’s science-informed treasure chest of resource-orientated integrative movement. 

Robert and Karin are looking forward to two uplifting hours with you!
