upcoming workshops:

the foot: the foundation of locomotion with Kelly Kane
date:  1/09/10
time:  10:00 AM - 3:00 PM
cost:  $200; cecs: Kane School = 5 hours

The complex make-up of the foot has inspired some of the most unique architectural structures in the world; it supports the human body when we stand, walk and run. Despite such overarching admiration, however, we abuse and generally take it for granted! In this workshop you will learn the inner blueprint of the structure of the foot. Additionally, you will gain insight into how to create a unique program that will assist in the improvement of the overall function of the body based on a happy, realigned foundation.

Seeking to incorporate an understanding of the human body into the classical Pilates genre, Kelly opened the Kane School in 1999 as a holistic body college founded on anatomical knowledge to improve strength and stability. She initially studied with Romana Kryzanowska and Hila Paldi and obtained her certification through the Pilates Institute in Santa Fe, N.M. Kelly completed two years of the BodyMind Centering teacher-training program and received her massage certification at the Florida School of Massage. Her manual therapy repertoire includes Structural Integration, CranioSacral Therapy and Visceral Manipulation, and she cultivated her exceptional manual perception skills at the New Jersey School of Medicine and Dentistry. Since 1993, Kelly has studied Iyengar yoga as well as anatomy and postural assessment with neuro-muscular movement specialist Irene Dowd, and her expertise also includes GYROTONIC® and Continuum Movement.
