walker

Let me introduce myself I’m Christine, and I live in a retirement community. We have an average age of 78, and I’m almost there! In the community I see so many issues with walking and mobility. For example, I’ve been in a hiking group with the same friends for about 15 years, and we've aged together. I’ve seen them go through an increasing number of procedures for knee replacements, hip replacements, back surgeries. When I then started to have some issues in my knee with arthritis, I thought… I don't want that.

We set a high bar for our six-lesson Gokhale Method Foundations course. We expect our students will 

Sit, stand, walk, lie, and bend in new (old!) and better waysExperience significantly less pain and more functionExpect more from their body and life. Use the word “life-transforming” somewhere in their evaluation forms.

Even with this high bar, a student sometimes surprises us with the extent or speed of their progress over the course. Abigayil Tamara is one such student - here is her story.
