Course Overview

Join us for a dynamic workshop focused on functional longevity and rehabilitative stretching.This course merges the grace of dance-based movement with the clinical precision of Active Isolated Stretching (AIS). Whether your goal is to enhance your own self-care or provide advanced therapeutic stretching for your clients, this course offers a “real-world” toolkit for muscle lengthening and fascial release.

Why AIS?

Unlike static stretching, AIS works with the body’s natural physiology to improve circulation and increase the elasticity of muscle and fascia without triggering the stretch reflex that can cause tightness.

David Lang’s Ten-Minute Stretch Program

Developed from a professional dance background but tailored for real people, this program consists of twelve easy-to-learn movements.

  • Efficiency: Designed to be performed in small spaces (home or office).

  • Accessibility: No specialized equipment required.

  • Consistency: A foundational routine to reset the body during a busy workday.

Active Isolated Stretching (AIS) – The Mattes Method

Experience an introduction to the work of Aaron Mattes, the founder of AIS. This technique is a staple in athletic training and rehabilitation, focusing on dynamic, facilitated stretching of major muscle groups.

CLASS FEE: (Full 14-Hour Course): Expands the training into the Upper and Lower Body, Shoulders, and Neck, providing a complete full-body stretching protocol.
