Legs & their Connection to our Sense of Self
Discover the intelligence in your legs
In this workshop, Catherine Annis invites you on a journey to explore how your legs are more than physical structures - they are storytellers of your personal development, resilience, and psychological landscape. Combining anatomical insight, developmental psychology, and yoga practice, Catherine reveals how legs shape balance, autonomy, and personal empowerment.
From our first steps as children to our ongoing movement through life, legs carry not just weight, but experiences, challenges, and adaptability. Through gentle exercises and detailed exploration, you’ll learn to connect with their profound intelligence - understanding how tension, strength, and movement relate to both physical and mental well-being.
You’ll discover fascinating insights, such as how leg strength correlates with cognitive function, how muscle tension reflects psychological stress, and how intentional movement can transform not just physical capability, but mental flexibility.
This workshop offers a holistic approach to movement, mind, and self-awareness.
