Fascia was largely regarded as tissue that was 'in the way' during the exploration of cadavers in anatomy labs around the world.
Anatomists, medicine, exercise and movement specialists typically ignored the thin and mostly fragile tissue found under the skin and over the muscles.
Little did we realize that one of the most fascinating structures in the human body was being completely ignored!
Here's what we'll cover
Fascial Foundations, Myofascia & Biotensegrity
Learn all the basics about what fascia is, what it's made of, where you can find it in your body, what it looks like, and why it's so amazing!
Breathing, Your Nervous System & Fascia
Humans are the only 'animals' that have conscious control of our breath! Learn how we breathe, and become aware of breathing patterns that have a significant impact on our overall health.
Nourish Your Body, Feed Your Fascia
What we feed ourselves, how we digest our food, and how well nutrients are absorbed into our blood stream is key to both our mental and physical wellbeing.

Meet Your Instructors
First Line Founder Angela Pereira has been a practicing kin and business owner for over 30 years. Since starting First Line in 2007, she's taught and mentored over 2500 kin students, professional kinesiologists and budding entrepreneurs through her online courses, academic teaching and thriving Facebook community 'Connected Kinesiologists'.
Angela's mission is to help new kinesiologists shine as they start and grow their practices. Raising the profile of kinesiology to the public is also important to Angela. As she sees it, it’s really a win-win situation: by providing support and direction to new movement therapists, the profile of the kinesiology profession will expand and grow organically.
What Simone does is a little bit like magic. She teaches the principles of relational anatomy and applied physiology to yoga teachers and other movement therapists around the world in a way that makes the concepts simple to learn yet profound in practice.
Simone teaches how to dynamically blend functional movement, meditation, philosophy, and yoga postures in mindful movement sessions she calls “progressive vinyasa” in her yoga and movement classes.
Simone has developed an RMT practice called “rehab massage". Her fascial focussed treatment allows her to help clients restore healthier movement patterns by realigning their body’s fascial system.
