Bodies Are Designed To Move
But, let's be honest, sometimes moving doesn't feel very good. Sometimes movement hurts and sometimes we are simply too stiff to move. And, the less we move, the more difficult it becomes. If this sounds at all familiar, you're in the right place. Together, we can get you back to moving with ease. Keep scrolling to learn more about the MAT, Pilates and Yoga offered in-office, as 1:1 private sessions. No classes, no crowds, no pressure. Not sure what type of movement is right for you, we can customize any combination of the above. It's all about you!
Muscle Activation Techniques
Muscle Activation Techniques is a bio-mechanically based treatment for muscular imbalances. Such imbalances can be caused by stress, trauma or overuse and often manifest themselves as muscle weakness or soreness.
MAT assesses muscle imbalances using range-of-motion and muscle contraction tests and treats using palpation and isometric exercises.
What makes MAT unique?
While most therapies focus on treating areas of tension and/or pain, MAT goes to the root of problem by addressing muscle weakness rather than muscle tightness.
MAT views muscle tightness as a form of protection in the body. “Weak” or inhibited muscles can create the need for other muscles to tighten up in order to help stabilize the joints.
The goal of MAT is to identify the inhibited or weak muscles that are creating a protective response and then ‘jumpstart’ these muscles in order to improve their contractile capability. MAT also provides for a checks and balances system to ensure its effectiveness. For this reason MAT is a great adjunct to all forms of exercise and muscle therapy.

Pilates
Pilates with Cyndi Lynne includes both reformer and floor-based instruction and is based on the Stott Method. The primary focus is on restoring the natural curves of the spine and providing core stability which in turn, can allow for more stable peripheral mobility.
Pilates emphasizes the five basic principles of:
- Breathing
- Pelvic Placement
- Ribcage Placement
- Scapular Movement
- Head and cervical placement
Core strength and stability provide the foundation for all exercise. Pilates adds an extra dimension to any training program and can be customized to support any sport or activity.
If you’ve ever been drawn to Pilates, but unsuccessful with DVDs or group classes, one-on-one training on the fundamentals will provide you with the basics to pursue your own practice injury free and with confidence.

Yoga
Everyone from personal trainers to physicians recommend yoga to their clients and patients for musculoskeletal issues. But even a beginners yoga class can feel a bit intimidating. Add to that the number of different types of yoga available and getting started can feel overwhelming.
Yoga with Cyndi Lynne is designed to be an in-depth anatomy and educational experience. Sessions are conducted 1:1 workshop style and are ideal as an adjunct to your regular group yoga classes.
Sessions include breaking down poses to ensure that the correct muscles are being used to get the most out of each posture. Clients learn what areas of the body are intended to perform in each pose, rather than simply trying to “make the shape” of the pose. Go into your first (or next) yoga class with confidence and the ability to know what your body needs throughout each class. Spend a session mastering your most challenging pose or learn to modify the most basic poses to work though injuries or chronic musculoskeletal issues.
