Studio Recorded and Live Sessions available Born with scoliosis and developed further back and knee damage during 10 years of backpacking throughout the world . When she found the programme an incredible success on herself, she started teaching other people, all with great results. Over the years, Callanetics has been further developed and refined and after careful research and based on Spiraldynamik® according to Dr Christian Larsen (MD) in Switzerland, the New Callanetics Programme with many new and even more effective exercise variations was introduced. Out of this grew the Callanetics Programme, and the SA Callanetics programme combines the benefits of all the above. Muscle groups are isolated and worked at whilst the rest of the body is completely relaxed. There is no sudden jerking or any hard impact, which can cause harm to the body. IT SOUNDS LIKE A MIRACLE, BUT IT WORKS IN A TOTALLY NATURAL WAY, THROUGH REGULAR CONTRACTION OF THE PELVIC FLOOR MUSCLES THE BRAIN IS BEING RECHARGED WITH ENERGY. THE RESULT – INCREASED THINKING POWER, MORE CREATIVITY AND ESPECIALLY GREATER SELF CONFIDENCE. The pelvic floor muscles – a fibrous system the size and thickness of the palm of a hand – is situated between the coccyx, the pubic bone and the hip joints. Through their activities it stimulates the excretion of hormones and endorphins (the body’s own happiness substance). These send messages through the spinal cord via control positions with the vegetative nervous system (which controls, amongst other things, the emotions) and release an emotional high in the brain. This is most noticeable during orgasm. But the pelvic floor energy can also be activated purely mechanical through contraction of these muscles. To feel these muscles, one contracts it as if one has to strongly hold in urine and stools. Then one can feel clearly how the muscle lifts. It is important to do this in a straight and relaxed posture, otherwise the energy cannot rise. In addition, concentrating on your breathing will make Callanetics the most perfect workout one can wish for. Exercise in general, promises strength, endurance and flexibility. The SA Callanetics Programme offers these additional benefits: coordination, balance, comprehensive body awareness, body control, discipline, speed, physical and mental relaxation, building of stamina, and decrease of appetite, improvement on posture, more energy, the need for less sleep, leanness ... and more.
