The Weight of the World | Neck/Shoulders pain| 14th November Masterclass

NEWTON BODY LAB

Monthly specialist masterclasses with Tatiana Newton

The Weight of the World -Releasing Neck, Shoulder and Upper-Back Tension

Masterclass | 14th November | 9–11am

Location: Collingwood room at Linskill Centre
https://linskill.org/

Imagine leaving the room pain free! Feeling lighter through your neck and shoulders, with a greater sense of freedom through your upper back.

This masterclass is designed for the person who feels stiff through the neck, carries tension around the shoulders or finds that the upper back feels restricted and uncomfortable.

We will work through the neck, shoulders and upper back using yoga asanas, gentle spinal movements, shoulder mobility, chest-opening poses and controlled stretching, but the real goal is how you feel afterwards.

You can expect to feel:

• looser through your neck, shoulders and upper back
• less restricted when turning your head and moving your arms
• more comfortable reaching, looking around and moving your upper body
• less weighed down by the tension you habitually carry
• more connected to your body instead of fighting against stiffness
• calmer and more settled after moving through the upper body
• more comfortable in your everyday posture without constantly trying to correct yourself
• more relaxed at the end of the day, with a body that feels easier to rest in

The aim is not simply to stretch your neck and shoulders.

It is to help your upper body feel more spacious, more mobile and easier to live in.

A Full-Body Mobility, Flexibility and Control Masterclass | 17th October, 9-11am

Location: Collingwood room at Linskill Centre https://linskill.org/ 

Imagine leaving the room feeling lighter, taller, more open and noticeably freer in your body.

This masterclass is designed for the person who feels stiff, restricted or simply not as comfortable in their body as they want to be.

We will work through the whole body using deep stretching, Controlled Articular Rotations, spinal movement, mobility and core control but the real goal is how you feel afterwards.

You can expect to feel:

• looser through your spine, hips and shoulders
• lighter and less restricted in everyday movement
• more comfortable bending, reaching, turning and walking
• more confident in what your body can actually do
• more connected to your body instead of fighting against stiffness
• calmer and more settled after moving through the whole body
• easier in your posture without having to constantly “hold yourself up”
• more relaxed at the end of the day, with a body that feels easier to rest in

The aim is not simply to make you more flexible.

It is to help your body feel more spacious, more capable and easier to live in.

Your Spine Was Built to Rotate | 19th September Masterclass | 9-10.30am

Rotation is fundamental to walking, reaching and moving freely. But when the thoracic spine and ribcage become restricted, your neck, shoulders, lower back or pelvis may start doing more of the work.

This 90-minute masterclass is about discovering how your body rotates — and where it compensates.

We'll begin with simple movement tests to identify your own rotational pattern, then explore how the spine, ribcage and pelvis work together.

Through precise alignment, yoga, mobility and somatic work, you'll learn how to create better rotation without simply forcing yourself deeper into a twist.

WHAT WE'LL EXPLORE

• Ribcage rotation: left and right
• Ribcage and thoracic mobility
• Better rotation, better breathing
• How the pelvis supports rotation
• Neck and shoulder compensation
• Embodiment of better rotation

We'll finish by repeating the original movement tests so you can feel what has changed and understand what your body needs.
