FRIDAY, September 19, 6PM - 8PM:
MASTERING THE STACK
Join Matt Phippen for an in-depth workshop on The Stack— a powerful approach to aligning and stabilizing the body by stacking the respiratory and pelvic diaphragms. Through intentional core engagement, intra-abdominal pressure, and hamstring activation, you’ll learn to create an unbreakable core canister. This technique not only enhances core stability, but also supports injury prevention and rehabilitation, while improving overall movement efficiency. Perfect for anyone looking to optimize their strength, mobility, and resilience. All are welcome.
SATURDAY, September 20, 10AM - 12PM:
UNLOCKING ROTATION
Discover the transformative power of rotational and lateral movements in this workshop with Matt Phippen. Focusing on transverse and frontal plane mechanics—essential for proper human locomotion—you’ll explore how to move beyond the sagittal plane and reclaim the dynamic range of motion your body was evolved for. Learn how precise, intentional movement can counteract the sedentary patterns of modern life, unlocking strength, mobility, and natural locomotion. Movement is medicine, and it’s time to reconnect with how your body was meant to move. All are welcome.
SATURDAY September 20, 1 PM - 3 PM:
GROUNDED STRENGTH— CONNECTING FEET TO GLUTES
In this workshop with Matt Phippen, you will explore the powerful relationship between your feet and your butt. Dive into the mechanics of foot pronation and hip extension, and discover the critical role cortical awareness and sense perception play in effectively activating your glutes. Your feet are the first point of connection between your body and the external world—learning to sense the ground, particularly under the arch during mid-stance, is essential for glute activation and optimal movement. Rediscover how grounding yourself—physically sensing the ground—can refine your posture, enhance movement mechanics, and help you cultivate a deeper connection to the world around you.All are welcome.
SUNDAY September 21, 11 AM - 1 PM:
EFFORT + EASE—THE ART AND SCIENCE OF FUNCTIONAL BREATHING
Come discover the transformative power of functional breath mechanics. Through science-based tools and exercises, you’ll learn to improve the alignment of the ribcage and pelvis, creating space for better, more efficient breathing. The session will begin with intentional effort—essential for repositioning and restoring optimal function—but will conclude with soft, restorative poses that will leave you feeling deeply relaxed and nurtured. You'll experience how effort and ease work together to cultivate a breath that supports your body, mind, and overall well-being. All are welcome.
