Use of Small Equipment

Offers both assistance and support during movement.
As well as resistance to movement, increasing the challenge on the muscles, as well as enhancing body awareness.

As with the balls, by squeezing the circles with the legs, the often neglected muscles around the pelvic region are more easily patterned into the movement offering assistance, support and greater control.
By squeezing or pulling the circle with the hands, key muscles around the shoulders and thorax are patterned into movement offering assistance, support and greater control.
The circle can offer a point of reference from which to move.

By squeezing the small ball with the legs, the often neglected muscles around the pelvic region are more easily patterned into movement offering assistance, support and greater control.
The unstable nature of the ball can help to develop deep stabilising muscles by challenging the body’s balance and control.
The ability of the ball to roll can help to offer friction free, tension free movement.

Through its unstable nature, the Roller can help to assist in developing the deep stabilising muscles by challenging the body’s balance and control.
Offers the ability to work through a greater range of movement.
Alignment can be enhanced, as the roller gives feedback to deviation from optimal alignment.
Helps to increase spinal mobility, which can also help release tension.
