Hypermobility and Related Wonders

with Mrghy

In this 3 hour workshop we will explore some possible causes of hypermobility and hypermobility syndromes, their genetic and anatomical components, as well as some common related issues. We will dive into the wonders of HM from multiple perspectives, expanding into what sensations and pain are and how they become crucial in our meaning-making processes. Beyond how to support and protect the hypermobile body, we will focus on the necessary compromises for movers, yogis, shibari practitioners, and other folks who are interested (or required by their profession) in exploring intensity, without completely forsaking safety. Drawing from a range of somatic techniques, arthrokinematics, pain science, as well as touch, observation, and the smallest bit of philosophy and imagination, we will investigate, experience and discuss options to find both support and freedom for the hypermobile body. Given the vast range of ways hypermobility manifests, we will try to explore the general narrative and then, time permitting, some individual issues or questions.
