Anatomy & Movement Trainings at Warrior Bridge are an opportunity to explore the inner workings of the human body and discover how we can use anatomical knowledge to fine tune our movement practices and teachings. Each immersion blends theory and practice. We look in detail at muscles, bones, and other factors at play in our bodies; we investigate sequencing, timing, and progress in the light of anatomical considerations; and we create movement practices ranging from foundational mobility & conditioning to handstands and acrobatics. These courses are an excellent opportunity to develop your skills as a teacher as well as bring nuance and new layers to your own movement practice.
October 15th - 19th
Anatomy of Movement
In our anatomy of movement immersion we will dive into what’s going on beneath the surface when we move our body. In whatever movement style you practice be it yoga, martial arts, fitness or any other sport/ art we bring our human anatomy to the practice. This immersion will feature workshops dedicated to understanding the physical anatomy (muscles, bones, joints, connective tissues), movement practices to develop mobility, strength and skills, as well as tools to help you structure practices.
December 3rd - 7th
Anatomy of Handstands & Flexibility
In our anatomy of handstands and flexibility immersion we will dive into techniques from the world of handbalancing, acrobatics, physical therapy, flexibility science and more to explore some of our favorite practices. This immersion will feature workshops dedicated to understanding the handstands, arm balances, flexibility and the anatomy knowledge particular to these practices. These sessions will cover both foundational information on handstands, flexibility practices and how those sessions can be structured as well considerations for advanced practices and practitioners.
February 4th - 8th
Anatomy of Acrobatics
In our anatomy of acro immersion we will dive into what’s going on beneath the surface in the practice of partner acrobatics. Through the exploration and study of our physical anatomy we can bring a more nuanced understanding of the body to our practice. Sessions will be dedicated to the anatomy of L-Basing Acrobatics, Standing Acrobatics, Resistance Training for Acro, Solo Acrobatic Skills & Movements, Injury Mitigation & Management.
This immersion is the product of decades of personal and professional practice of movement and study of anatomy. Our program offers insights of our common anatomy and movement potentials from a variety of movement influences. Based off of this body of knowledge, we will curate a toolbox drawing from the practices of physical therapy, mobility & strength science, hand balancing, inversions, acrobatics, yoga and other movement arts.
This training is designed for anyone who is seeking a science-based perspective to inform their teaching, sequencing and programming as well as proven tools and techniques from which to approach movement practices such as handstands and flexibility training, yoga, meditation & breath work and so much more!
