SomaTraining - Master GDN Basic - Assisting Professor

Erik is currently assisting SomaTraining courses lead by the internationally renown Guy Voyer D.O. Courses are held in Santo-Domingo, Dominican Republic at the Universidad Federico Hernriquez y Carvajal.

As an Assisting Professor for the SomaTraining Course on Global Dynamic Normalization (GDN).

The fourth stage of the big steps to follow is the return to normal activities. The individual in question can utilize the Global Dynamic Normalization to further improve the outcome by the fluidic movement of water.

Life depends on the development of bio-dynamic, bio-electronic energy created by numerous osmotic, oncotic, biochemical and mechanical metabolic exchanges. These ionic exchanges only take place through the movement of water, i.e. body fluids. It's the 70% of water that makes up our body that allows this bioelectricity to invade fascial tissue, i.e. our solid connective tissue (ligaments, fascia, tendons, mesos, dura mater, adventitia, pleura, peritoneum, pericardium, etc.).

Fascial movement is alive. We know that it is a permanent mutation between free and link water; an incessant histological transformation from gel to sol, and vice versa.

The various fascial treatments (touch) and exercises such as myofascial stretching (MFS), global postural stretching (GPS), or global dynamic normalization (GDN) train and modify tissue memory. It's an ongoing debate, with the ultimate aim of finding a homeostatic compromise.

It is in this sense that a tactile (therapeutic) or mobile (exercise) approach will be applied.

If this bioelectronic flow is too regular, always the same, the danger is habit as well as cessation of movement (static posture).

The danger is the routine of exercise itself, which brings us closer to death.

The mobilization of our body's water and fluids requires a rhythm to create regular waves. Liquids, by definition incompressible, only move by undulation.

It is this cadence, this pace, this measure, this tempo of the GDN, that will promote the osmotic exchange of body fluids and thus determine the quality of life.

The aim of this basic GDN course is to understand, through global exercises, how to become aware of this biorhythm.

The exercises will be repeated until a cadence of movement is mastered.

Those who have mastered this phase, and this basic course will later be able to apply it to other GDN with an orthopedic connotation.

Finally, once this advanced course has been mastered, the visceral GDN can then be mastered.
