What is the number one mistake people make when they start trying to get healthy?? They invest in a fixed-term program of 2 weeks, 6 weeks, or maybe 3 months. Then, after being super diligent and working hard, their pre-purchased program ends. Their intentions are of course that they will take these newly-learned skills and the motivation & momentum from the program and continue to do it all on their own. Sounds great, doesn’t it?? After all, they DID learn many great skills to do it on their own. But then... life gets busy, time slips by largely unnoticed, and without even realizing it they’ve ended up right back where they were before they had even started! And, worse, now they feel sad and frustrated and angry with themselves — all things that are counterproductive to getting successfully back on track. There’s got to be a better way...
There is... STOP thinking of the investment in your health & wellness as something with a fixed term and an end date! STOP setting yourself up for failure before you’ve even started! Instead make an ongoing but very affordable investment & subscribe to my members-only Health & Wellness Facebook page...
On it I will post videos of yoga, chair yoga, meditation, qigong, and no-equipment & little equipment bodyweight workouts. You will find there recipes for healthy meals. There will be helpful tips about the importance of getting better sleep, hydration, incorporating more small, easy non-exercise movement throughout your day. I will post current health & wellness research and decode it into non-scientific, easy-to-understand language. And so much more!! Even better, there are plans that fit easily into everyone’s budget!
NOURISHED SEED: Includes full access to my Facebook page & all resources available there!
EMERGING SPROUT: Includes access to the Fb page PLUS a monthly email with additional techniques & tips and self-study assessments & tools.
STRENGTHENING SAPLING: Includes access to the Fb page & the monthly email PLUS a link to a LIVE virtual monthly workshop on various topics.
RESILIENT CANOPY: Includes access to the Fb page, the monthly email, the virtual monthly workshop PLUS a link to a LIVE virtual monthly somatic movement therapy class!
And best of all, you can cancel at any time! So you can try it with no long-term commitment and see if it is something that will work for you!

INTRODUCTION TO SOMATICS:
Theory & Exercises
VIRTUAL ON ZOOM
In this virtual workshop I will present the ideas of Thomas Hanna & Moshe Feldenkrais that much of the stiffness and chronic pain we typically attribute to aging is instead sensory motor amnesia, a loss of conscious awareness of chronically contracted muscles. I will present the fundamentals of the techniques he developed to re-awaken & re-establish conscious awareness & control of muscles and thus regain the ability to release the contractions - relieving pain and releasing the condition that could have, without release, lead to real wear & tear and structural changes that truly age us. We will follow the presentation & discussion with a Hanna somatics movement practice. Saturday, July 11th 2:30-4:30.
Cost: $30 for non-members; $24 for SK Wellness members.

GETTING BACK ON TRACK SERIES:
Have you been away from fitness for a while so that you’re not really sure how to get back to it? Ease back in with this 6-class series that will start in chairs to “knock off the rust”, then will transition to standing chair-assisted postures, and then to gentle mat postures. Limited to only 10 participants means it will be a personal, non-intimidating, comfortable environment. You can do this! Classes will meet 11:00am Sundays on March 1,22,29 and April 5,19,26. Cost: $75.

PERSONAL TRAINING:
My philosophy is that my clients should not only be training while with me, but our training time should also equip clients with the knowledge, skills & confidence to also perform training independently in between our sessions. My approach will include a blend of cardio, bodyweight & functional movements, use of bands, sandbells & TRX, and dietary guidance along with baseline & periodic follow-up assessments of fitness to track progress. Are you ready to take control of your health?! Let me help you! We will begin with an initial 90-minute session that will include assessment, goal-setting & planning, and your first workout, and each session thereafter will be 60-minutes.

ESTABLISH YOUR OWN HOME PRACTICE: Have you always wanted to do yoga on your own at home, perhaps on days in between your group classes or perhaps because you are unable or prefer not to participate in group classes. In this one-on-one series of four 90-minute sessions you will learn to eliminate the “all or nothing” mindset that makes a home practice seem daunting, build a foundational sequence, and learn ways to alter your foundational sequence to introduce some variation or to change its length to fit your available time on any given day. You will receive a written record of your foundational sequence to refer back to after the training ends. Days & times to be arranged. Cost: $190.
Sessions & Packages Regularly Available:
Single sessions or multi-session packages are available that are designed to address your specific goals, after consultation and in partnership with you.
A free 20-minute face-to-face initial consultation & 60-minute paid sessions can be arranged by emailing me through the contact page within this website, by email at sharonkanfoushwellness@gmail.com, or by text or phone at (315) 982-7144.

In addition to the customized one-on-one and small group sessions, I occasionally offer special topic series such as LEARN YOGA BASICS, YOGA FOR WEIGHT LOSS, and GETTING BACK ON TRACK. So be sure to check back frequently!
The yoga therapy components of my teaching are based on my advanced training at the YogaLife Institute, not derived from my status as an RYT with Yoga Alliance.
