Self Myofascial Release (SMR) is a form of self-massage, in which hands, foam rollers, balls, and other tools are used to apply pressure to adhesions in a muscle (“knots”). This pressure eventually causes the knots to release, helping to restore mobility, and allowing the muscles to function properly. If you ever experience discomfort in the outer knee, under the foot, in the glutes, shoulders, or lower back (or anywhere else for that matter), it is likely that you may benefit from SMR.
Natasha Kowatch, Certified Personal Trainer, will host a series of workshops demonstrating Self Myofascial Release (aka foam-rolling) techniques for releasing “knots” in the muscles.
Dates:
Tuesday, March 5th, 10:30 a.m – Lower body techniques
Thursday, March 7th, 10:30 a.m. – Upper body techniques
These workshops are free to all, limited to the first 20 to sign up. To sign up, go to www.thefitnessstudio.us then click schedule. go to the classes tab and find Myofascial Release (foam rolling).

People, stop spraying your lawns with chemicals! Cancer rates in CT are higher than other states.…Read More That's because we have the money to spray our lawns and turn them into green perfection.

No money for the classrooms? A shame. Ridgefield's BOE just donated $25,000 of taxpayer money to…Read More yet another artificial turf field. Gee, that works out to about $480 per classroom - exactly what the teachers have to spend out of their pockets on YOUR kids.
