  • Feel less restricted in twisting postures

  • Alleviate feeling crunched and compressed low backs in backbends

  • Develop a deeper awareness of your breath

  • Feel lighter and more integrated in balancing postures

  • Create more control around your range of motion and help students with hypermobility issues

  • Add challenge to familiar postures and sequences as you push and pull against the external load of the bands

  • Harness stability with mobility

  • Alleviate aches and pains

  • Understand the science behind what makes bands such powerful and effective tools for changing the way you feel + move

Resistance bands have entered the list of equipment used in yoga classes and sequences.

In order to use them to their maximum benefit, an understanding of the science behind strength, stability, and motor learning is imperative, along with guideposts for sequencing and integration, and this is EXACTLY what this training teaches.

This Physiyoga Resistance Band Training, taught by Giulia Pline, E-RYT, BFA, has been years in the making (since 2018 to be exact). Read a piece of Giulia’s story around how and why resistance bands helped her heal and became an area of specialty:

"In 2017 I suffered a severe skiing accident where I fractured my upper arm, collarbone, 6 ribs and sustained a punctured lung and lacerated liver. I was not only in pain, but had no sense of connection to my upper body or breath. I developed movement compensations around the pain that bled into other parts of my body as well. I felt so broken.
I started working with resistance bands during my physical therapy rehabilitation sessions with Diana Zotos (co-founder of Threes) and explored how I could use them to help bring the fragmented pieces of myself back together in a holistic way.

Bands for me were not just a prop to pull and push against, but were a powerful tool for healing.

My experience during this time bloomed into a greater purpose to share the wealth of bands with my students, colleagues, and other movement professionals and clinicians. Since this time I have taught workshops and classes nationally and internationally with bands and helped my clients find new pathways of connection to their bodies and movement regardless of injury or pain.
This new online Physiyoga Band Training is the foundation that will help you understand WHY resistance bands are such a powerful and potent tool and how to make changes immediately, not only in your own body but in the people you work with.
This work is deep and potent. It asks patience, inquiry, and slowing down enough to savor and embody the experience. It will nurture your body and brain and bring insight, creativity, and healing to how you move and how you practice."

  • Tensegrity

    We distribute load efficiently thorughout the body for better balance of muscular effort and more expansive and graceful movement. Create length, strength, a new sense of spaciousness, and spinal decompression.
