Embodiment & Imagery
Change your body by changing your mind
​
The Franklin Method® is a ground breaking training technique helping you unlock your body’s full potential through exercise, imagery and anatomical understanding based on Dynamic Neurocognitive Imagination (DNI)
The Franklin Method is a highly effective, evidence-based approach to movement education focusing on the body and its function. It has been practiced for some 30 years and taught at numerous illustrious institutions around the globe.
DNI is the heart of the Franklin Method - this is the use of metaphorical mental imagery to support the development of healthy physical function, strength, mobility and coordination. In other words, we combine visualisation techniques with physical exercises to improve movement.
The Franklin Method can be used as stand-alone training as well as a compliment to yoga, Pilates, dance, physiotherapy and many other disciplines. It can help you hone and embody the movements you already practice in everyday life, training and teaching.
The Franklin Method can help you improve your coordination, body awareness, flexibility, mobility, strength and understanding of the body. You can learn our method for personal development with our workshops and teacher training courses.

In this class, we will delve deep into discovering WHERE the psoas is, WHAT it does, WHY it joins forces with other muscles and HOW to use it optimally. The power of IMAGERY, the use of BANDS and BALLS will all help to create a better embodiment experience that will improve its function.
