About this Event
Join Cynthia Flores with Labor Movement in understanding BETTER body mechanics and movement patterns in order to increase workforce productivity and help decrease workplace injuries. Open to farmers and farmworkwers, time will be spent in an interactive atmosphere moving through four basic movement patterns: hinge, squat, push, and pull, along with the importance of core stability. Each participant will leave with tips focused on ways to improve their overall movement patterning and work-related well-being. Plenty of opportunity for Q&A.
Registration is free but space is limited to allow for some individual attention.
Parking Info: As you pull into the driveway, follow the road until you reach the first fork at the three-sided barn. Go to the left and park in the gravel area between the two large barns (equipment barn and century barn). Depending on conditions, additional parking can be utilized in the grass across from the three-sided barn if not too wet. Once you are parked, follow the event signs to the upper level of the barn.
