Raz Ori – The Path of Least Resistance

Raz Ori – The Path of Least Resistance

In this workshop, Raz will focus on the ‘path of least resistance’ in Functional Integration^®. This important path winds its way through each lesson; through familiar neuro-muscular landscapes, and into fresh emerging ones. Following it, attentively, can help you to identify your student’s habitual patterns and facilitate the development of exciting new neural connections to improve their comfort, organization, and potential.

Known for his warmth, clarity, and dedication, Raz plans to share ideas and tools that you can use in your work, immediately. Of special note, you will learn how to use soft, inflatable rubber balls for both strategic and supportive purposes in Functional Integration. This approach can reduce stress for both the Practitioner and the student, and improve the lesson’s effectiveness.

All of the content will be new and original, including the featured ATM^® and FI^® instruction. This is a stand-alone event but can also be considered a follow-up to ‘Plasticity in Action’ (April 2021).
