Women's Empowerment Through Posture

About this workshop

Women! In six one-hour sessions we will transform our posture to get to a new level of confidence, relaxation, comfort, and self awareness. We intend to shed damaging societal messaging about sitting up straight, tucking our pelvis, turning in our knees, and more, to empower ourselves in leading our best lives.

In this course, suitable for beginners and alumni alike. In addition to the emotional benefits, side benefits include having more energy, becoming more resistant to back pain and other musculoskeletal problems, and improving physical appearance.

  • Maximum Class Size: 20 students

Optional Pre-and Post Workshop 1:1 Consultations with Photo Analysis

To get even more value from our course, you can choose to book two private 25-minute Gokhale Consultations, one before and the other after the course for a special discounted package price.

Give yourself a head start by getting a comprehensive analysis of your posture and how it affects your life. Using photo assessment your teacher will analyze your “before” and "after" pictures, as well as give individualized recommendations, exercises and guidance. Our Post workshop consultation is about how to proceed and what to focus on going forward.

With this offering we are confident you can:

  • Learn to use healthy posture and movement more automatically.
  • Be more confident, relaxed, and comfortable in your body.
  • Notice how your old posture habits caused your body to “complain” with a little ache here or a painful twinge there.
  • Empowered with your new sense of self, be ready to go out into the world and live your dreams!

Please note: For privacy reasons, recordings of group sessions are not available. However, if you miss a class, we'll make arrangements for you to attend a makeup session in a subsequent course.

We can’t wait to share this wisdom with you. Book your space today on our journey of female empowerment!

Gokhale Method Testimonials

  • 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.

  • Marisa McGinnis

    For the last two years I had severe sciatica pain down the backs of both of my legs to the point where I was in constant pain and could barely walk. I also had a sore neck and was using a mechanical neck traction device daily. My physicians recommended a back shot and medication, which I didn’t want to do since the back shot either doesn’t work or stops working after a few months. As a very active person — a non-professional ballet dancer and the owner of an extremely active dog (Australian Shepherd) — my life was miserable. After going to my acupuncturist for a couple of months, who got rid

  • Geo BentleyFormer CEO, Advantage TechnologiesInternational Tennis Hall of Fame Inductee

    After decades as an international athlete and a Silicon Valley CEO, I developed a debilitating, ice-pick pain in my butt which woke me up every few hours at night. I am 80 years old. I was in agony until finding Esther’s book 8 Steps to a Pain-Free Back and carefully studying her posture method. I was able to eliminate this pain in just one month by working directly from Esther’s book. Since then, my wife Pam and I have both benefited greatly from attending a Pop-up Course and private lessons with Esther.

  • Norman Crawford

    The Gokhale Method, developed by Esther Gokhale, is deceptively simple. It’s physical and is straightforward and, for most, requires repetition and practice to replace old with new. I had the good fortune to meet Esther just after I began to experience nerve pain. Exercises learned in the Foundations Course were immediately beneficial, reducing nerve pain to the vanishing point and improving my balance and confidence. The Gokhale Method rewards its practitioners. I highly recommend it.
