Episode 68: THE PROBLEM W/ RIGID ALIGNMEN CUES PART 1

Traditionally, alignment was taught as a set of fixed, universal principles—certain cues, angles, and posture requirements that were considered "correct" for all bodies. However, modern discussions, influenced by movement science, biomechanics, and inclusivity, now emphasize functional movement, individual variation, and nervous system safety over rigid alignment rules.

Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, today we’re exploring how alignment can be personalized, empowering, and adaptable rather than rigid or fear-based.

In this episode, I’m going to focus on two perspectives that we once had but are moving away from, thank goodness! 

They are: alignment is one-size-fits-all and fear-based cues.
