John Friend will be offering a Bowspring weekend workshop in Indianapolis, IN — November 3-5, 2023.

The venue is Epicenter – 1609 S East St, Indianapolis, IN 46225

There will be 4 classes that will be designed for all levels of students from beginners to Bowspring to more experienced and regular Bowspring students. (Two hour classes – in Central Time zone)

Each student’s postural alignment will be assessed by John, and basic exercises will be instructed to help with therapeutic issues and with taking their mind-body health to the next level.

11/3: Friday 6-8 pm ET — The Postural R/Evolution of the Bowspring — The first night of the workshop will focus on some of the cutting-edge alignment aspects of the Bowspring method — wavy, dynamic form in harmony with principles of sacred geometry; uniform tone of the myofascia on all sides of the body; and spirally actions of rooting and rising through the central channel of the body.

11/4: Saturday 10 am – 12 Noon ET– The R/Evolution of the Wings — The class focus will be on the new alignment paradigm of the Wings – hands, arms, and shoulders – which leads to an expanded level of freedom and power of our mind-body health. Instructions will include how to avoid unhealthy habits on how we use our hands and align our shoulders, and how to create a universal, balanced alignment for both therapeutic healing and for optimized athletic performance.

11/4: Saturday 2 – 4 pm ET — The R/Evolution of the Roots — The class will focus on the r/evolutionary alignment paradigm of the Roots – feet, legs, and hips — which leads to an expanded level of freedom and power of our mind-body health. John will teach students to avoid unhealthy habits on how we sit, stand, and walk, and how to create a universal, balanced alignment for both therapeutic healing and for optimized athletic performance of our feet, knees, hips, and lower back.

11/5: Sunday 10 am – 12 Noon ET — The Upward Spiral of the Bowspring R/Evolution — This grand finale class will put together all the main parts of the Bowspring method to help students have a r/evolution of their mind-body health in their daily lives.

The overarching intention of the workshop is for students to gain a radical shift in their self-awareness of their default postures and idiosyncratic movements so they can choose a healthier, r/evolutionary alignment for their functional movements and for their athletic endeavors. By implementing Bowspring alignment instead of our unconscious default positions in our daily lives, any student, regardless of age or limitations, can gain a r/evolutionary level of health and happiness.

Total of 8 hours for the weekend workshop. All levels of experience and physical ability are welcome.
