Endorsement by Tom Myers

I am pleased to endorse the work of Karin Gurtner as presented

in this Slings Myofascial Training movement exploration. In Karin's

precise and beautifully lengthened movements you will see and

feel the engagement of the myofascial connections in the Anatomy

Trains lines. With a secure foundation and engaged core support,

the movements are taught safely according to all the principles

of healthy training of the fascial fabric – building equally toward

athletic or expressive excellence.

Slings Integration Day Applying skills and consolidating knowledge.

Endorsement by Tom Myers

[…] As Jung pointed out to us, the world is full of thinkers and

intuitive healers – but rare is the person who can master both in

one body, and Karin Gurtner is one.

We in the rehabilitative world may analyze movement in terms

of specifi c joint misalignment or neuromuscular mis-coordination

or fascial restriction, but it is increasingly evident that the body,

in a miracle of massive synchrony, makes no such distinctions in

its responses. Karin's work, and this course, represent a step in

the direction of making real what so many dancers and athletes

already know: the body feels, responds, and moves as a single

organismic whole. […]
