Learn how your body actually works
Workshops are where we teach it, not just treat it. Pelvic floor and core classes for new and pregnant mothers, a session on breathing and back strength, a monthly bootcamp, and sessions for teams who sit all day.
Who these are for
However you move through your week, there is a workshop built around it.
IF YOU MOVE A LOTYou lift, run, ride or coach, and your body is the equipment. If you are stiff in the morning, get back or neck pain when you train, or want to finally load properly instead of guessing, these are built for you.
IF YOU SIT A LOTYou spend your day at a desk, in a car, or holding a baby, and your back and hips are telling you about it. If sitting brings on back or hip pain, or you are easing back into movement after having a baby, start here.
What actually runs
Four ways to learn with us, on the mat, in a small group, or with your team. Every session is hands-on and taught by a chiropractor, not handed to you as a printout.
PELVIC FLOOR AND CORE 101
Two tracks, one for new mothers and one for mothers who are pregnant, covering breathing, posture and how to actually engage your core and pelvic floor.
THE STRONG SPINE
Ninety minutes on breathing and deep core work for a back that holds up under load, plus the five exercises Carly has attendees keep using afterward.
THE MOVEMENT BOOTCAMP
A standing monthly class with kettlebells, body weight and bands. Every session is different, so nothing gets stale and nothing gets easy.
Start here, then keep going
Start with the basicsBegin with Pelvic Floor and Core 101, one track for new mothers and one for mothers who are pregnant. You will learn the basics of movement, posture, and how to properly engage your core and pelvic floor.
Build the patternOnce the basics click, everything else gets easier, whether that is lifting the kids, running, doing yoga, or just standing up straight after a long day at a desk.
Keep building strengthDrop into a Movement Bootcamp class whenever you like. Kettlebells, body weight and bands, a new set of exercises every time, so you keep building on what you started.
For teams and companies
A desk job is hard on a body. We run sessions built around your company’s own schedule, virtual or in person, so your team leaves with real tools instead of a slideshow.
- Stretching
- Mobility and trigger points
- Headaches, neck pain and low back pain, with breathing and core work
- Fixing how you sit
- Women’s health, including pelvic floor and core strength
- Kinesiology taping, how and when to use it
Why I teach these
As a mom, I know your time is valuable. Many of the women I see come in with back pain, diastasis recti, or a pelvic floor that just is not working the way it used to, and I built this workshop to hand them real tools.
Most back pain starts with how you breathe, not just how you lift. I built The Strong Spine to teach the five things I wish every patient learned before their back started talking to them.
I would rather teach you how your body works than just adjust it and send you home. That is the idea behind the bootcamp, and honestly behind every workshop I run.
