Free Online Workshop

About this workshop

In this free 1-hour workshop, you’ll start to learn the why and the how of the Gokhale Method. Many workshops begin by showing you how to stretchsit. This is a way of sitting back in a seat and giving yourself gentle traction, which eases compression in your spine and stretches out tight or spasming back muscles.

In this short amount of time, you will be introduced to techniques which will allow you to:

  • Reduce or eliminate back, neck, muscle and joint pain
  • Prevent muscle and joint degeneration and injury
  • Increase your energy, stamina, and flexibility
  • Reduce stress and improve your appearance

Effects are often immediate and last a lifetime. To participate in the online class, you will need a computer with access to the internet. Also, please have a towel nearby for the stretchsitting practice.

Your Teacher

Michal’s passion for the powerful tools an evolutionary approach offers to solving common health challenges grew from her search for solutions to overcome an autoimmune disease. When back pain rendered activities like cooking and going on walks intolerable, the Gokhale Method, with its focus on ancestrally informed posture, was the obvious solution. Michal is thrilled to help others experience the benefits of the Gokhale Method in France, Switzerland, and Israel.

Gokhale Method Testimonials

  • Jean Weininger, Ph.D. nutrition scientist and writer, Berkeley, California

    I took a Gokhale Method course and finally found a path to relief. Instead of getting weaker as I've gotten older, I've experienced surprising strength, flexibility, and balance. Whenever the inevitable happens, and I bend or lift or sit or move in a way that tweaks a muscle or joint, I have the tools to recover using Gokhale principles that have become a way of life. For several years now, I've made it a priority to attend the daily online offerings including posture reminders, fitness training, and music and dance. The lovely community of participants and teachers from around the world

  • - D.J. Kennedy, President American Academy of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation

    I’ve used the Gokhale Method before personally and I refer patients to it, too. It involves improving your posture with various stretches and techniques. I like it because the goal is to have your spine in ideal alignment as much as possible — while sitting, standing, walking and so on."

  • Susan Gerhard, 2-time Masters National Champion, Olympic Weightlifting Founder, San Francisco, CA

    Esther Gokhale is incredibly patient in helping people in pain unlearn decades of bad habits and move from bad posture to body awareness. She brings her students a wealth of knowledge from decades of close observation of walking, standing, sitting, and lifting patterns (in contemporary populations all over the globe, as well as in books and art that point to a more aligned past). She also offers graduates access to regular online training and a library of helpful resources. Gokhale training is not just for people in pain, but for anyone with questions and curiosity about human movement.

  • Barbara BlackstockBusiness owner

    Over the years I have been seeing my physiotherapist when in great back pain and referral pain.  Last year I took a very bad fall landing on concrete with no time to protect myself. 

    After several days, giving time for inflammation to decrease, I did see my Physio. He was amazed that I was still in good alignment. I only needed a couple of minor adjustments 

    I do my Gokhale stretchlying every night while in bed.  It had made a great difference on how I feel, especially first thing in the morning.

    To know now that I can align myself anytime I feel the need is so powerful.

    Thank you Gokhale.

  • Patti Sue Plumer, three-time Olympian, 1992 World Record holder for 1500m and 500m run

    "Esther Gokhale helped me resolve a five-year injury after nothing else had worked. Her work is unique and thorough."

  • Billie Jean King, winner of 20 Wimbledon titles

    "Esther's technique for treating chronic back pain is totally unique and her research really backs it up. This is a great tool for all of us."

  • Susan Wojcicki, CEO of Youtube, Mountain View, CA
    It takes no time to implement, yet it works for you 24/7.
  • Paul R. Ehrlich, Ph.D. , Bing Professor of Population Studies and President of the Center for Conservation, Stanford University, CA

    Logically based, compelling, and expertly delivered….I would like to see this approach become a part of standard care. Early access to this kind of intervention could have saved me a lot of pain and grief.

  • Jeri Bessat, Palo Alto, CA
    The entire method has been a true revelation and I shall be using it for the rest of my life.
  • Gerri Hynes, Ontario, Canada

    Thanks to the Gokhale Method, I was able to endure a 4000 km/2500 mile drive through the US and Canada with my husband. Previously I could not sit in the car for longer than 10 minutes without my sciatica acting up. Now I can sit for hours with little to no pain. I thought I would never travel again!
