Say Hello to our Yamuna Body Rolling instructor…
Hi, my name is Jeanne Reilly. My original career was as a Community Psychologist, and currently I teach healthy movement through two modalities, Yamuna Body Rolling and Pilates.
When I learned of CSC back in 2013, I loved what the center stood for, and the many ways help was provided to community members through the center. It was with joy that I was able to become a part of the volunteer team.
Based on observations of loved ones who were affected by cancer, it seemed that they felt at the mercy of their disease. Learning to live with cancer, or to heal following treatment is where I feel I am able contribute. I also believe care takers can greatly benefit from Yamuna Body Rolling, as they too are often faced with physical and emotional challenges.
Through healthy, safe movement my hope is to provide individuals with a way to reconnect to their bodies in a supportive, and positive way. Movement without fear, allowing one’s body to work with you instead of against you, and teaching people how to develop a mind body connection are all goals that I strive for in my teaching.
I am currently teaching monthly classes at CSC in Yamuna Body Rolling. The ball rolling is a safe, gentle way to unwind emotionally and physically. It is a systematic way to release muscles to allow our bones to get back in the correct position. This allows for greater range of motion, and reduction or elimination of pain or general tightness. There are ways to work through the entire body.
I enjoy sharing this modality called Yamuna Body Rolling with others, especially as I watch people feel better, increase their range of motion, improve their balance, get stronger, and build their confidence. All of this can help reduce risk of injury as well.
It is empowering for individuals, as they feel these changes! And this is why I love to continue sharing this technique with others. I hope you will join me in learning this powerful self-care technique called Yamuna Body Rolling.
