Mastering Power Sitting Posture Can Spare Your Back and Save YouMoney

Increased stress and long hours at our desks often result in poorly supported sitting postures and nagging aches and pains that rob us of our focus and diminish our capabilities. At Manhattan fitness studio Backbone and Wingspan, learning the principles of Power Sitting will spare your body from a host of physical problems and save your wallet from expensive quick fix solutions.

As part of their summer-long series of free introductory fitness clinics, Backbone and Wingspan has developed a program of Pilates-based exercises and simple stretches that teach you how to sit healthy. The workshop will be hosted on Tuesday, May 19th from 6:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. at their Chelsea studio located at 115 West 30th Street, Suite 1209. Reservations are being accepted at 212-647-8878.

Sitting-related pains often hurt your wallet as much as your body. Repeated chiropractic visits, massages and ergonomically designed office chairs give temporary relief but their costs add up with no long-term physical benefits. Backbone and Wingspan'ss free introductory Power Sitting Posture clinic will demonstrate pain-freeing exercises, simple sitting stretches that can be done at your desk and posture-supportive movements that will revitalize your aching body. The studio offers private instruction with its highly experienced trainers for people looking to make a smart investment in their health. Learning new ways of supporting the spine while sitting is critical to breaking the cycle of pain and expensive temporary treatments.

Many people consider sitting a passive activity until something starts to hurt, says Tim Driscoll, Director and Founder of Backbone and Wingspan. The exercises we use to teach Power Sitting Posture engage people actively with their bodies as they sit and introduce healthy habits that will help them avoid aches and injury.

The Power Sitting Clinic features the interactive hands-on expertise of three of Backbone and Wingspan'ss experienced practitioners: Nancy Golike, Gabriel Bobek and Karen Donelson. Backbone and Wingspan is a unique fitness studio dedicated to the functional principles of movement explored through a variety of methods including Pilates, The Feldenkrais Method's174;, CranioSacral Therapy and Physical Therapy. Using an intensely personalized approach, Backbone and Wingspan practitioners combine physical instruction and mindful imagery to help clients achieve their own fitness and pain-free movement and posture goals and foster positive life-changes.
