Foot Foundation & Stability

A deeper understanding of your feet — the foundation of your whole body.

Our feet do so much more than carry us from one place to another. They provide the foundation for how we stand, balance and move, influencing the way our bodies respond to the world around us.

Yet, we don’t always give them much attention.

Join us for a half-day workshop exploring the important role our feet play in balance, stability, strength and whole-body movement.

Bringing together the clinical and sports science knowledge of Dr Eugenie Nicolandis and the movement-based approach of Heather Robbins C-IAYT, this workshop offers an opportunity to learn more about your feet, develop body awareness and explore practical ways to support their function.

Who is it for?

You’re very welcome.

  • Interested in improving your balance
  • Keen to understand your feet a little better
  • Curious about the foundations of movement

No previous yoga experience is needed.
