THE KINESTHETIC SIGNATURES OF ZERO BALANCING
CLASS DESCRIPTION:
The Kinesthetic Signatures of Zero Balancing is an exciting weekend class devoted to the exploration and skill development of kinesthetic awareness and attention. It is a class that focuses on the sense of touch. There is a kinesthetic signature that is consistent across clients, a kinesthetic feedback signal, that once recognized and learned, can increase one’s ability to touch a person on deeper levels, facilitate a consistently high level of touch, and increase one’s confidence and trust in one’s hands.
You will learn:
· A process for recognizing kinesthetic signatures that will enable you to continue to explore and find signatures on your own.
· To develop a greater sense of consistency and self-trust when touching energy and structure.
· To apply your ability to feel kinesthetic signatures throughout your ZBs, thus improving the ease, power and depth of your sessions.
· To find and feel the kinesthetic signatures for:
o the blue line
o when you have truly met the donkey
o when you have connected to the entire person
o when a fulcrum feels particularly good to your client
COURSE LENGTH: 2 days
CE HOURS: 12.5
PRE-REQUISITES: Zero Balancing I and II
CLASS LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
At the end of the weekend, the student will:
- Demonstrate facility in the process for discovery of kinesthetic signatures of energy patterns.
- Demonstrate increased facility, quality, consistency and confidence with touch.
- Demonstrate deeper understanding of Core ZB principles.
- Demonstrate increased skill in ZB fulcrums.
- Identify the kinesthetic signatures for:
· Initial contact with the energy system
· Interface—a clear energetic boundary
· Energy change and movement
· Contact with the core energetics of the client
· Held or blocked energy in bone
· Contact with the whole energetic field of the client
· When a fulcrum or technique feels particularly good to the client
