Open body Method TM

The key to a pain free body recedes in our ability to connect our movements into a constant graceful flow.

First OPEN METHOD CLASS FREE!

Everything around us is in motion.

The concept of structural stability and body alignment is not a static place much less a state of a fixed way of being. On the contrary, the human body is a holistic system design to naturally move in all plans and directions with expanding intentions. I’m Karla Contreras, owner of OPEN Body ConceptsTM founder of OPEN Body MethodTM. I have been teaching movement for 30 years. My experience as a Stott Pilates, Gyrotonic® teacher and Anatomy Trains Structural Integration body therapist leaded me to the realization that we are multidimensional beings in constant flow between gravity and ground reaction force.

“Movement is a natural and instinctive way for us to heal and expand ourselves in many levels of our existence” - KARLA CONTRERAS.

Structural Integration has given me an entirely new perspective for my body’s movement. Instead of “muscling through” workout and yoga moves, I can ease into them, improving my range of motion.
