The Structural Essential series is a set of intensive soft-tissue technique courses divided into functional regions. Combining movement and manual techniques for the most efficient and long-lasting results, and using the latest research on the interaction between skeleton, muscles, joints, and fascial proprioceptors, this series of workshops will take you to a new level in therapy.

Designed with the busy manual therapist in mind, each Structural Essentials event gives you a new understanding of the relevant area. The content will outline how the structural and functional anatomy relates to many common issues as well as to the rest of the body. Based on many new and established approaches this series will give you the skills in palpation, BodyReading and functional analysis needed for the modern multidisciplinary therapist.

Arches and the Legs – Underpinning all of our structure is the foot’s interaction with the ground, imbalances here clearly have consequences further up the body. Effective arch balance can be essential for easy and graceful walking, pelvic stability, low back efficiency and even head and neck support. The feet and legs are literally the foundation for the rest of our structure and this workshop will analyze the bones of the feet and how they conspire to help or hinder the arches. We will look at the forces coming from the leg muscles and create strategies to help maintain better mechanics by dealing with myofascial restrictions and imbalances.

The Knee and Thigh – A complicated hinge in the middle of two long levers is perhaps not the best of designs – but this “elbow designed by committee” is an excellent work of engineering. The knee joint mediates forces coming down from the hip and up from the foot and still allows a wide range of movement in all but the frontal plane.

Objectives

How to differentiate your analysis of the foot and legs from the rest of the mechanical chain, giving an accurate reading of their skeletal relationships
How to assess and then provide good foot and leg support through the three (or four) arches of the foot
How the arches act in walking and standing and their relationship to the pelvis and the AT lines
How to balance the support the arches receive from the long muscles of the calf
Effective strategies to unwind rotational compensations in the foot, the tibia-fibula complex and the knee.
Learn how the structures of the knee and thigh co-operate to achieve this and learn to recognize some of the structural dysfunctions that can occur.
BodyRead the various imbalances which can occur
Learn to balance the common rotational movements of the knee

This year we are asking for a $10 suggested donation to the event with 50% of what is collected going towards the adoption of the farm animals that are currently in need and living in Leicester, NC. The other 50% will first go towards producing the event and then we will be donating to those in need in the surrounding area, be it animal, human, or environmental. All funds will remain in the possession of Triangle Vegfest until donated to the vetted sanctuaries who adopt the cows and pigs.

Interested in supporting Firestorm as a social movement space and resource volunteer? Join us for our June Volunteer Orientation!

Firestorm has space for volunteers who are committed but flexible. Ideally, volunteers would be available at least once a month. Examples of volunteer work might include—but are not limited to—supporting grassroots programming, connecting visitors with local resources, developing or maintaining the space, flyering for community events, or reading and reviewing new books.

Individuals interested in volunteering should attend an orientation, at which we will introduce our project, including our Space Use Statement and Sober Space Statement. Once oriented, volunteers can sign up for a variety of roles based on their skills and passions.

**Because the equitable compensation of labor is part of our mission, volunteers can support Firestorm as a social movement space but will not be asked, or permitted, to act as unpaid bookstore employees.

“Our shows are a blast and have sold out every time so get your tickets now,” show performer DIVINE said. “This event is a fundraiser, yes, but its also an opportunity to showcase Asheville’s incredible local performers, restaurants, and dedication to helping the community. Our brunches are held at different locations, showcase different drag queens, and the profits always benefit local charities so you should drag yourself to brunch every time!”

ABOUT ASHEVILLE DRAG BRUNCH:

Asheville Drag Brunch is the littlest big show in town! The event is designed to showcase local and guest drag queens, promote local restaurant businesses, and support local charities.

The show happens at multiple venues, is fast-paced family-friendly fun, and is designed to raise funds for non-profit organizations. These local groups rotate and are advertised with each individual show.

A ticket to brunch ensures a seat at a table or bar, the meal, and a beverage. Remember to bring tips for the queens as this is the main way they raise additional money for the local non-profit.

During the glitter-adorned affairs, patrons howl, clap and cheer as the queens channel celebrities with spot-on lip syncing and sky-high heels. And wherever you look, there is cause for celebration. Lively groups of different genders, races and ages whoop it up for all sorts of special occasions, from birthdays to bachelorettes to anniversaries, and even divorces.
