Walking is key to staying agile and stable in our older years. Join the founder of the Gokhale Method, Esther Gokhale, as she introduces techniques that will stabilize, un-hunch, and lengthen your spine. In her return to the JCCSF for this very special 1-hour workshop, Esther will demonstrate Gokhale Method principles to introduce you to a groundbreaking approach to walking: one which honors ancient wisdom to keep us active and functional in the modern world.   

Esther Gokhale is the creator of the Gokhale Method®, a breakthrough in back pain relief. After experiencing crippling back pain during her first pregnancy and unsuccessful back surgery, Gokhale began her lifelong crusade to vanquish back pain. Inspired by Aplomb® and other anthropological approaches, Gokhale has grounded her work in biophysics and anthropology. Esther’s book 8 Steps to a Pain-Free Back has sold over 300,000 copies and has been translated into 10 languages.
