Teresina attended the Nutrition Therapy workshop presented by Standard Process which makes organic, locally produced nutrients and supplements. This was a very eye-opening experience that highlighted the science of nutrition and how it affects the bodies muscular responses. Overall the information and supplements are a great resource of holistic remedies for conditions arising from stress that affect physical function.

Teresina has taken several workshops since the beginning of the year. She feels that they deepen the way she’s already been practicing. Each one addressed a different area of health – nutrition, function, and breath. All three of these areas need to be addressed concurrently. Gyrotonic is the vehicle she uses to teach movement. Through teaching, opportunities open up for her to introduce other modalities for a holistic program. She’s studied nutrition and exercise her entire life and believes that everything we do outside the studio affects our workouts and vice versa. Somedays one area of health needs more attention. Teresina sees her job as facilitating the process of bringing all areas of fitness into balance for her clients.

Balance of Fitness presents a dance camp for kids 7 to 12 years old. Classes will include ballet, modern, jazz, and Zumba, and will be held in the yoga studio at 569 Ruger. No previous dance experience necessary. These fun classes are sure to bring smiles to everyone!

Camps will be held August 3rd through the 8th and August 17th through the 26th, Monday-Friday 3-5pm.

Teresina has completed Chad Crenzikofer’s workshop on the shoulder. The workshop covered the functional anatomy of the shoulder and how to assess a shoulder issue. We don’t think about it much, but the shoulder is actually a complex joint that is used frequently.

Teresina is committed to continuous education and learning the latest techniques to help her clients be their very best. She traveled to Miami to study with Juliu Horvath. He has created a new part of the Gyrokinesis system related to breath. Its part of a whole process that involves preparing the skin with skinbrushing, a series of movements, and breath work.
