Adaptive Bodywork: Unit I, Unit II, Unit III

Adaptive Bodywork is a holistic modality that stems from Rolf Structural Integration and is developed by Structural Integrators. Practitioners of Adaptive Bodywork view the body holistically and use their bodies adaptively to do the work (hands, feet, arms, elbows etc.) The work realigns and properly tensions the clientโ€™s fascial support network, layin

g down a new and more youthful structural architecture. The client is engaged and participates actively during this process. The initial unit focuses on the integration of parts or segments of the body with the objective of creating more efficient movement patterns. This approach enhances the structural and functional integrity of these tissues, relieving pain, increasing mobility, and functional range of motion. The second unit still focuses on the integration of structural segments and expands the knowledge of the first unit with structural analysis, body reading and the integration of structural change in the segments with the rest of the body through active global movement. The third unit builds upon the knowledge gained from the previous units.The focus of this Unit is a multiple session (six sessions) approach or series that systematically organizes the bodyโ€™s structural architecture in the field of gravity using movements involving the whole body (relative conjugate movement) that are by their nature, highly integrative. This systematic approach and application is guided by the traditional vision brought forth by Dr. Ida Rolf. The classic 10 sessions that Dr. Rolf devised is the mainframe that guides the integration of the body to work expansionally in relationship to the force of gravity. During all Adaptive Bodywork sessions the clientโ€™s active participation is guided by the communication between the client and the therapist, based on what they sense during their interaction.

I much enjoyed the "Landmine University" workshop recently held at the Kettlebellclub in Pointe-Claire! Huge thanks to Louka Kurcer for the invite and to the exceptional strength and mobility coach, Emma Bissonnette, from Human 2.0 gym in Ottawa, for leading such a fantastic session.

In our quest to understand the root causes of modern health epidemics like obesity, diabetes, and Alzheimer's disease, researchers have uncovered a crucial link between fructose, uric acid, and our evolved foraging behaviors. This insight sheds light on why so many of us struggle with metabolic health and provides a compelling narrative of how our bodies' ancient survival mechanisms are mismatched with today's environment.

The STM2 course welcomes a diverse range of participants, from seasoned bodyworkers to those freshly interested in exploring the depths of manual therapy and movement optimization. This workshop is structured to cater both to practitioners who have previously attended STM1 and those new to this field, ensuring that everyone begins on common ground. We revisit foundational techniques in a comprehensive body-wide context, then progress to more advanced methods, enriching your skill set and enhancing your practice. Ideal for yoga instructors, fitness coaches, and anyone passionate about unlocking the full potential of movement, STM2 offers a transformative experience that empowers both you and your clients. Join us to expand your repertoire and deepen your understanding of myofascial optimizationโ€”no prerequisites required, just a keen interest in bodywork excellence.

Adaptive Bodywork Structural Integration (ABSI) is a comprehensive multi-session protocol that focuses on deep, slow manipulation of the fascia and myofascia, coupled with movement re-education. ABSI evolved from the pioneering work of Dr. Ida P. Rolf, who originally developed the concept of Structural Integration. The ABSI method integrates principles from the Anatomy Trains Myofascial Meridians, as explored in Tom Myersโ€™ book Anatomy Trains. This perspective views muscles not as isolated units but as interconnected parts of a larger system that spans the entire body.

WHAT IS ADAPTIVE BODYWORK?

Adaptive Bodywork: Unit I, Unit II, Unit III Adaptive Bodywork is a holistic modality that stems from Rolf Structural Integration and is developed by Structural Integrators. Practitioners of Adaptive Bodywork view the body holistically and use their bodies adaptively to do the work (hands, feet, arms, elbows etc.) on a variety of surfaces (floor, table, bench, etc.).

Think of it as "two-person power stretching", or "movement-based deep tissue massage"...

It is the secret-weapon that elite health & fitness professionals use to get their clients functionally stronger, optimally charged, moving with fluidity and lightness, while creating a body that is free of dysfunction, pain, stiffness & chronic stress..."

The work realigns and properly tensions the clientโ€™s fascial support network, laying down a new and more youthful structural architecture. The client is engaged and participates actively during this process. Unit I focuses on the integration of parts or segments of the body with the objective of creating more efficient movement patterns. This approach enhances the structural and functional integrity of these tissues, relieving pain, increasing mobility, and functional range of motion. Unit II still focuses on the integration of structural segments and expands the knowledge of the first unit with structural analysis, body reading and the integration of structural change in the segments with the rest of the body through active global movement.
