All human body movements - from simple, every-day actions to complex athletic and dance skills - are based upon five fundamental movement dynamics of Coordination, Flexibility, Strength, Endurance and Balance. The development of each of these movement dynamics is the key to complete physical conditioning. No single exercise, dance or athletic activity addresses all five of these movement dynamics in an efficient and balanced way. The NOMADICS exercise system answers that need.
NOMADICS are a unique synthesis of athletic and dance exercises, physical therapy techniques, and meditation practices from around the world. A truly comprehensive exercise system consisting of four distinct movement forms, Nomadics effectively develops each of the five fundamental movement dynamics. In addition to their physical benefits, the Nomadics exercises also have a psycho-spiritual effect. Research findings in the fields of somatic psychology and psychoneuroimmunology indicate that training the body for strength, flexibility, endurance, coordination, and balance simultaneously develops those same qualities in the mind. In other words, psychology may be accessed through physiology. Utilizing the Nomadics movement-meditations, we can work on our minds by working on our bodies.
The FLOW form consists of a series of 60 discreet exercises performed in a fluid interconnected sequence. The various exercises are designed to wake up and warm up the body's major and minor muscle groups while simultaneously articulating all the joint structures through their full range of motion. The Flow movements are an excellent way to start the day and a superb warm-up for any athletic or dance activity.
