Frequently Asked Questions

What is BodySense?

The BodySense Method is foremost a discipline of healthy, conscious living.  It captures you by focusing on the intellectual knowledge of your own body.  Students learn to then take responsibility for their own well being.  We all have differing needs and abilities.  You'll un-learn a lifetime of bad habits and gain knowledge of how to remove any obstacles that prevent you from performing at your best.  The body has an inherent wisdom and ability to regain and retain balance.  In essence, you will learn to reprogram, to recapture health.  In BodySense, body and mind is a whole but we treat each person as a unique individual.

Ah, good question!  Without the solid foundation of an understanding correct alignment and the important role it plays in your state of well-being, you naturally tend to seek the path of least resistance, or you go over an "edge" into injury.  By this I mean you may continue to bend and stretch improperly, therefore repeatedly misaligning your body.

First, each person needs to be shown how to feel proper alignment.  From this foundation, you are then able to do the pose correctly in the Yogic perspective.

It is not the pose, it is the process of aligning as you are getting into the pose that is most important.  You learn how not sacrifice alignment for the sake of the pose, thus avoiding injury while building strength.

Of course, read the above answer!  The flow and balance of a BodySensed body is one of control, strength, energy and peace.

What is your method of teaching?
