“Strong Back, Soft Front, Wild Heart” - Brené Brown

What does it mean to have backbone? Synonymous with grit, fortitude, and courage, it is often associated with persistence and passion for long-term goals, especially in the face of obstacles. A backbone allows us to confront fear, pain, danger, uncertainty, or intimidation with confidence and bravery. 

Embark on a six-week journey to practice and refine a carefully curated sequence of movements. These exercises aim to heighten your awareness of your back, leveraging and building upon your existing strength. 

In this six week practice, delve into the question: Can a physically strong and healthy back enhance these qualities, providing a stable foundation for cultivating openness and curiosity? Let's explore how the strength of our physical back aligns with inner strength. Together, we will work towards improved back health and a profound sense of groundedness and backbone.

Outcomes of this workshop:
  1. Develop Multidimensional Strength Along the Back of your Body 
  2. Improve Postural Balance 
  3. Increase Physical and Personal Resilience 

Brene Brown said “For me, the strong back is grounded confidence and boundaries. The soft front is staying vulnerable and curious. The mark of a wild heart is living out these paradoxes in our lives and not giving into the either/or BS that reduces us. It’s showing up in our vulnerability and our courage, and, above all else, being both fierce and kind.”
