This program is for movement educators and manual therapists. It provides educational protocol for making postural assessments with students and clients, guiding them through core activation exercises and basic movement exercises. It’s ideal for dance, Pilates, and yoga instructors, personal trainers, and any teacher wanting kinesiology-based exercises for teaching about muscle and joint mechanics.
Core Stabilization in Massage and Bodywork: Level 3
10 videos (10 to 20 minutes each)
This level is designed for licensed massage therapists, bodyworkers, and manual therapists who have completed Level 1 as a prerequisite. It shows massage therapists, bodyworkers, and manual therapists how to integrate core stabilization exercises into manual therapy using neuromuscular patterning (NMP) skills and active movement techniques.

Kines101 es un enfoque educativo multidimensional para ayudarlo a descubrir los secretos de su anatomĆa y aumentar su conocimiento del cuerpo con herramientas prĆ”cticas y ejercicios lĆ³gicos para alinear y equilibrar el cuerpo. SLos ejercicios omĆ”ticos (cuerpo-mente) y las meditaciones de movimiento estiran los lugares difĆciles de alcanzar, aflojan las articulaciones rĆgidas y activan y tonifican los mĆŗsculos centrales.
El laboratorio de movimiento Kines 101 es ideal para:
- Aprender la ciencia del movimiento mientras se conoce
tu cuerpo y afinando tu postura y movimiento
ā
- Transformando tu cuerpo en un laboratorio de aprendizaje
y resolver problemas de movimiento espinoso
ā
- Aliviar el dolor crĆ³nico, rehabilitaciĆ³n de cirugĆas y lesiones,
y reducir el dolor artrĆtico
ā
- Ayudar a las personas mayores activas a mantener y mejorar estilos de vida activos

DespuĆ©s de practicar estas rutinas, se sentirĆ” mejor que cuando comenzĆ³, ademĆ”s, despuĆ©s de haber realizado una serie de ejercicios de movimiento terapĆ©utico, sentirĆ” resultados instantĆ”neos.
Esto es lo que dijo un amigo sobre las rutinas de Maryann:
ā
"El mejor ajuste general del cuerpo que he encontrado".
"DespuĆ©s de practicar estos ejercicios, puedo trabajar en el jardĆn por mĆ”s tiempo sin dolor de espalda".
"Los profesores y entrenadores de yoga a menudo enfatizan la importancia de una buena postura, pero rara vez se desglosan en los muchos componentes de nuestros mĆŗsculos y articulaciones. Mary Ann lo guĆa a travĆ©s de la ciencia de la postura y el movimiento con conceptos enfocados e imĆ”genes anatĆ³micamente sonoras que guĆa tu Ć©xito".
"Maryann ofrece aplicaciones prĆ”cticas que hacen que la biomecĆ”nica sea fĆ”cil de entender, para que puedas resolver problemas corporales crĆ³nicos por tu cuenta y mejorar el rendimiento fĆsico en cualquier cosa que hagas".

What makes this approach unique?
Core stabilization originates from cutting-edge medical research conducted by physical therapists, who are exploring the connection between chronic pain and joint instability, as well as more effective treatment approaches. I have learned many of these core exercises during my training in somatic movement therapies. This research not only confirms the benefits of core muscle training but also explains the science behind it.
What distinguishes this approach from traditional physical therapy is that instead of concentrating on a single muscle, we seek to activate the entire postural muscle system. This comprehensive method focuses on enhancing overall body patterns rather than just one area.
Postural flute muscles
āāAbout core activation exercises and the “postural flute"
Core activation exercises utilize specific isometric contractions or small range movements to engage each postural muscle effectively. The “postural flute” is an easy-to-remember analogy I created for training the core muscles, similar to how notes are played on a flute, from the bottom up. Each level of my home-study courses is centered around the postural flute protocol. First, we focus on individual muscles; then, on coordinating them as a system.
Just like a flute, if any note is out of tune, the entire sound is affected. Similarly, if any postural muscle fails to perform its function, it disrupts the entire body’s balance. Conversely, training that muscle benefits the whole body by improving support of the entire core stabilization system.
ā
The postural flute routine is presented in Level 1 as a 10-step protocol for relieving back pain and promoting overall balance and centeredness of both body and mind. To sample it, go to an introductory video on my YouTube channel titled
"10 Steps for Pain-Free Posture."
Here is an overview of the 10-step protocol:
-
Stability tests for hips and spine
-
Skeletal support and joint neutral
-
Transversus abdominis and perineum
-
Diaphragm and breathing
-
Psoas and flexor chain
-
Multifidus and extensor chain
-
Obliques and ribcage
-
Trapezius and scapula neutral
-
Upper-lower cervical
-
Co-contractions and integration
