Posture Release Imagery is a challenging but ultimately rewarding way of exploring the healthy use of our bodies.
As you practice these exercises, you will unleash a hidden lightness, stability, and gracefulness within yourself.

Who is it for?

Dancers & Movers

Posture Release Imagery is a mental form of posture exercise, but it becomes quite physical in effect. It promotes more naturally graceful movement.

Pain & Disability

Many problems are caused by a misconceived “self-image,” which controls us with its dysfunctional sensations… and these sensations rule our support structure, our posture.

Body Workers

"It’s amazing how, with small manipulations, you feel a big change in your body. I had always thought about posture as straining myself, and after my time with John, when I stood up straight, it started feeling like slipping into the right groove."

" I took classes with John and I was amazed at the way my body changed. Within the first session, I could see my shape transforming in a way I’d never thought possible. The visualization techniques helped me see myself differently than I had, and have helped me change the way I think about posture and pain. "
