Membership Updates - January 2026 (Copy)

Dear valued members of the LTRI,

Courtney “wheel walking” on a snow-filled, slippery walk.

Today as I was enjoying a snow-filled afternoon walk on the mostly cleared but slippery streets of my neighborhood, my body’s wisdom tapped into a powerful familiar event. As I was doing my best to stay upright and avoid a tumble (even in my winter boots!), I heard the countless whispers of all of my dear teachers and mentors reminding me to simply tap into my “wheel walking”. I remembered Barry Kurr, and the teacher within, encouraging me to to “roll through” my feet like gliders, and I felt Crystal Robbins presence reminding me to allow my pelvis to float right atop of my rolling feet, keeping that sense of a stable, moving balance. All the while, when I did experience slight “slips” or “wobbles”, I heard Nancy Krebs radiantly reminding me to “make it part of the dance.” My walk was transformed into my own personal act of artistry and enjoyment! Also, I didn’t fall!!

This sharing is a reminder of the simple but powerful ways Lessac Kinesensics is there to support, enrich, and guide us all through our daily lives, in times of profound struggle and times of success. 

If you’d like to refresh your Lessac Kinesensic practice to help support and enrich all you do, then we hope you’ll join us at one of our many upcoming events in 2026. We have a full calendar lined up (below) and hope to see you soon!

With Respect,
Courtney
