About the event

Stiff, stuck, tight, and wanting to feel some freedom? That freedom can be found

through studying the connective tissue that is the framework for the structure of your entire

physical body. In this workshop, you’ll gain an understanding of how this system works, and

you’ll learn the tools to bring it back to a state of optimum health.

Commonly called myofascial release, this practice is an effective technique that complements all

forms of movement. 

We’ll discuss the fascial system, its important functions, and how to treat it so it

can serve you properly.

You’ll learn about common trigger points and release techniques, and will be sent a workshop

.pdf for creating a custom release practice specifically for your needs.

This practice will not include vinyasa flow, but common asana poses may be used as a way to

reach specific areas of the body with our release tools. Workshop will include topic study and a

review and demonstration of how to access the most common trigger points.

Bring with you: a yoga mat, a set of tennis balls, and a printout of your workshop handout (will be

sent to you upon registration) with your favorite pens/highlighters/markers to customize your

handout and create your individual practice plan. Wear comfy clothes- anything you would wear to

practice yoga or go to the gym would be appropriate.

For yoga instructors: This workshop is eligible for 2 hours of continuing education through Yoga

Alliance.

About your instructor: Melissa Klimo-Major is a Cleveland-based yoga teacher and educator. She

obtained her first 300 hour training in 2012 through Awaken Yoga before earning a 300 hour

Advanced Yoga Psychology certification with Ashley Turner in 2017 and a 500 hour certification

with Yoga Medicine as a Registered Therapeutic Specialist. Melissa’s mission is to make yoga

accessible to all, and her desire to live freely on and off her mat inspires those around her to

cultivate ownership of their own paths. Her style is approachable; she balances a focus on

alignment with the freedom of flow.
