be able to take part again live after two weeks and be with you all. The exploration of the unified
diaphragm and the countermovement of the coccyx/xhiphoid is very interesting for me. First it was
confusing, but now i feel that something gentle but powerful starts to develop inside me with this inner
movements. i feel more grounded, i feel the weight of my heels, as if there was a root that goes into the
ground. I also perceive as if my whole chest would "fall" more, wich is a very comfortable feeling. I'm so
deeply grateful for these explorations that you are offering, Bonnie, that are supporting me a great deal
in my everyday live and in my dance practice too.

11:15:50 From Eva MAES : Yes!!!

11:15:50 From Laura Ann Wolfe : The rising of the pelvic floor on inhale I find counterintuitive to
conditioned training of engaging pelvic floor during exhalation in some dance techniques.

11:15:51 From Azela González Cañedo : Yes

11:15:55 From Elisa Beck : Hi Aaron and everyone! It’s Elisa Beth Haransky-Beck from

eventually coming back here with children in 1989 to Texas.

2020 Fall Series – Class 7 10

11:22:13 From Leticia Sekito : Thank you for these words!

11:23:03 From Toni Smith : The Dynamic Release. Feel the direction and lean in

11:23:21 From vivien : Very very helpful, thank you!

11:23:27 From doreen laperdon-addison : yes helpful. Bonnie your explanations

11:23:33 From Brid Connole : soooo helpful

11:23:33 From Elisa Beck : Beautiful descriptions!

11:23:38 From Cynthia Williams : the dynamic release reflex is a transformative reflex

11:24:12 From Lola G Vital Cuerpo : � � �

11:24:41 From Liz Atkins : This is such a lovely new possibility for responding in the moment to
situations and emotions - condensing and expanding, so the patterns don't get stuck.

11:25:05 From Mariah Maloney : xxoo

11:25:15 From Romanie : <3

11:25:16 From 429439b : so helpful in deepening understanding of postural tone, condensing


and expanding..thank you!

11:25:19 From Laura Ann Wolfe : So helpful to feel exhalation as expansion! Thank you, Bonnie.

11:25:28 From Hanna : Mariah! xxoo

11:25:28 From vivien : Since I condense into a big pillow at night, side-lying and really cuddling it,
I sleep so much better. I was lacking this second part of the reflex for a long time and its so relieving to
explore it now

11:25:32 From Azela González Cañedo : Taking notes: The Dynamic Release - Reflexes- open
expanding - condensing close.

Postural tone

Expand - Inhale

Contract - Exhale

11:26:40 From Lola G Vital Cuerpo : Aahaha ! Graham �

11:27:15 From elizabeth poole : she said NOT Graham

11:27:23 From Laura Ann Wolfe : So much to let go of!

11:27:24 From Hannah Setu : Contracting builds age! WORD!

11:27:32 From Sara Vogeler : and condense as you expand!

www.bonniebainbridgecohen.com
2020 Fall Series – Class 7 11

11:27:54 From Bob L : Including breath/ diaphragm, expanding and condensing in torso also
releases ribs from spine. Any comments to support this, Bonnie?

11:28:17 From 361726 : I find myself trying to imitate Bonnie rather than connecting internally
to the sense of expansion and contraction.

11:28:46 From Sara Vogeler : It’s fine to imitate Bonnie. Its’ a way to bring it inside…

11:28:58 From Francesco : Superfun!

11:29:06 From Laura K. : Thanks for that Sara :)…I’m imitating too! haha

11:29:07 From Toni Smith : Dynamic Release overrides FREEZE. Also, she indicates that the
freeze is a response to a situation, not the situation, but rather, our response. Dynamic Release allows
dialogue with the situation, overriding the FREEZE.

11:29:28 From 361726 : Thank you Sarah. It’s a place to begin!

11:29:36 From Hannah Setu : 361726 Yes imitate is the natural way.

11:29:41 From Sara Vogeler : Love that, Toni!

11:29:52 From doreen laperdon-addison : love to review and also go back to the recordings very
helpful

11:30:19 From Linda Jantz : great job Adit

11:30:38 From Simone Forti : From Simone, greetings and love to all.

11:31:35 From Sara Vogeler : HI Simone, wonderful to have a legend with us!

11:31:40 From bertholdhenseler : Berthold A few more words to me. I develope contend for
Children and parents to develope more and more a sense of self-efficacy. I just prepare a exhibition
about the art of smelling.

11:31:57 From Marghe Mills-Thysen : Hello also from Marghe Mills-Thysen,

11:32:07 From Jane Ellison : so beautiful to see how the team works together.

11:32:15 From Hanna : �

11:32:16 From Susan Bauer : wow, hi Simone! I miss you and lovely to be here with you. Love,

2020 Fall Series – Class 7 12

11:32:28 From Marghe Mills-Thysen : Freeze also as Hold to gain information

11:32:47 From Hannah Setu : Berthold That's wonderful!

11:33:21 From Paula Josa-Jones : Toni - however in my experience in working with trauma, one
can’t just override the freeze and move into dynamic release - that has to be a carefully titrated process.

11:33:24 From Bob L : a lemniscate

11:33:28 From doreen laperdon-addison : I have 2 screws and a pin in my right ankle. For the
first time 35 years or so I am able to jump with ease off of my right foot and shift weight with more
clarity because of attention to pelvis diaphragm, triangles, pubis bones all of this work. My spine is more
free. So grateful

11:33:38 From eleanorrosenthal : And hello from Eleanor/Elli Rosenthal in San

11:34:17 From Jazmin Jewel : so weird there's those 8 differentiated initial cells and that figure 8
that forms

11:34:35 From Sara Vogeler : Doreen, how wonderful!!!!

11:35:40 From Bob L : posterior triangle- knitted,

11:36:09 From eleanorrosenthal : I’m not sure what I got wrong, but I’m in San Francisco
(Eleanor/Elli Rosenthal). My best to all!!!

11:36:10 From Andrea Snelling : My brain and body are finding it difficult to think about
contracting on an inhale...my previous learning is about lengthening on inhalations...A whole new
learning experience...

11:36:13 From doreen laperdon-addison : yes it is wonderful! Love reading all your comments
Sara. You are a wealth of information

11:36:18 From Hannah Setu : What? No diagrams before Kegel of the pelvic floor? Whaaa?
speechless

11:36:20 From Lauree Wise : Pelvis floor - “taut and resilient, not saggy” . I am reminded of a
trampoline

11:37:36 From Sara Vogeler : Thank you for flattering me, Doreen!!!

11:38:01 From Aaron Bendix-Balgley : Are the relative shapes of the male and female pelvises
really accurate? to my imagination it seems extreme the narrowness compared to roundedness. I'm
curious.

11:38:10 From Paula Josa-Jones : I find that it is more about allowing condensing on the inhale
rather than thinking about contracting. Expansion is happening above the thoracic diaphragm and
below the pelvis diaphragm.

2020 Fall Series – Class 7 13

11:38:13 From Kathy JO : It's my 2nd class

11:38:24 From space4movement and Andrea : Yeah another series would be wonderful!!

11:38:24 From Hannah Setu : Perineum is the origin of the middle body? Such wonders I have
never learned...

11:38:48 From Sara Vogeler : Paula, that’s interesting to feel that !

11:39:11 From Mary Bacha : Aaron - an idea I have to see your own shape is to measure with
ribbon from each bony landmark

11:39:18 From Paula Josa-Jones : Yes!!

11:39:20 From Jazmin Jewel : Hannah I've just started looking into embryology and it is
incredible - you should look more. Bonnie has some resources on her website as well

11:39:54 From Marghe Mills-Thysen : Lovely idea Mary

11:40:09 From space4movement and Andrea : it is so liberating to think of all the parts of the
pelvic diaphram

11:40:28 From Aaron Bendix-Balgley : Mary. That makes sense, thank you. That would give some
geometry

11:40:34 From Lauree Wise : frozen

11:40:47 From Lisa Clark : FREEZE

11:40:49 From Mariko Tanabe : Can she show that again?

11:41:12 From Hannah Setu : Jazmin, yes! I will! I am in awe of embryology Bonnie style, rather
than what I studied 40 years ago.

11:42:08 From Jazmin Jewel : I learned some with Tara Judelle too but I want to continue so
there's a book recommendation on the website....its' on my list

11:42:27 From Bob L : figure 8 through perineal body, non-weight-bearing. Great

11:43:21 From Romanie : Wonderful! :)

11:43:24 From Lisa Clark : Wow

11:43:57 From Laura : i love watching the aliveness in bonnies body

11:44:36 From Lauree Wise : I take back the trampoline association - not dimensional enough

11:44:38 From vivien : Me too Laura! Every cell in body is inspired :)

11:44:40 From Sara Vogeler : Try adding your hands to mimic the pelvic floor in all
positions…(except on your hands and knees) Then you can alternate—do pelvic floor opposite your
hands and arms…

2020 Fall Series – Class 7 14

11:44:53 From Jazmin Jewel : jade egg is so useful in working with this area

11:44:57 From Lauree Wise : freeze

11:45:03 From Bob L : also effective for prostate/ bladder support.

11:45:45 From vivien : …Every cell in my body is inspired

11:46:10 From Romanie : Is this helpful if you are losing urine while laughing?

11:46:13 From Sae Tsuchihasi : As I doing the figure 8 of moving the per. body forward and back

11:46:28 From Toni Smith : Tracing the figure 8 around the anus and vagina feels great. It also
engages all the other pelvic striated muscles.

11:46:35 From Cynthia Williams : this is a very juicy exploration figure 8

11:46:36 From Sara Vogeler : you can also play with adding the ischial tuberosities and circling
left to right and right to left in the figure 8.

11:46:55 From carmela : Bonnie, you have a gift and able to donate so much to us

11:47:19 From Sara Vogeler : remember to go forward towards the pubis and back towards the
coccyx for the sagittal figure 8.

11:47:28 From Sae Tsuchihasi : continue. it feels like I am using the illiococcygyl muscle and
glutescoccyg. muscle—is this correctZ? I did not ever feel those muscles before so it’s a guess

11:47:48 From Bob L : its our private roller coaster :)

11:47:58 From Gloria McLean : Amazing connections to Hawkins technique

11:47:59 From Louisa Turner : hard to switch off deep abdominals at the same time

11:48:01 From Sara Vogeler : Hahahaha, Bob!!

11:48:15 From Janet Kahn : As I do these figure 8s, I feel a reaching as I pass by the bottom or
top of the 8 and a condensing as I cross over from one circle to the other.

11:48:25 From Bob L : @Sara :)

11:48:27 From Sara Vogeler : Louisa, allow the deep abdominals to come along for the ride!

11:48:35 From lynn jordan : amazing experimenting starting with tiny figure 8’s and expanding
them. And reversing direction. Accessing deep core muscles for the first time.

11:48:49 From lynn jordan : I mean, at least, consciously

11:48:51 From Sara Vogeler : Love that, Lynn Jordan!

11:49:04 From Louisa Turner : thanks Sarah

www.bonniebainbridgecohen.com
2020 Fall Series – Class 7 15

11:49:04 From Patrice Heber : So if the perineal body is too tight and not elastically condensed,
it can pull on the xiphoid process? Since the pubococcygeal is connected all the way up the rectus
abdominal? Is this a correct view?

11:49:33 From Sara Vogeler : That’s my understanding, Patrice, yes!

11:49:44 From Dani Lima : it seems easy to do the figure of 8 in the transversal direction than
sagital for me

11:49:48 From Basha : If you would like to share something with the entire group, choose All
panelists and attendees in the drop down menu in chat before you send your message.
If you would like to share something with just panelists (Bonnie and her team), choose All panelists in
the drop down menu in chat before you send your message.

11:49:57 From Patrice Heber : Thanks Sara. That’s what I”m feeling

11:50:24 From 429439b : I love the figure 8....

11:51:06 From Sara Vogeler : Bonnie is describing a very small figure 8 around anus and vagina.

11:51:10 From Lauree Wise : freeze

11:51:12 From Jazmin Jewel : which do you think is more beneficial? the cutting less painful, but
is the tear sometimes less?

11:51:16 From Patrice Heber : frozen screen on the figure 8 standing

11:51:49 From Jazmin Jewel : Less of a.....an opening? I don't know

11:51:53 From Paula Josa-Jones : Sara - I am finding the figure 8 in the horizontal plane - it can
also be transverse. movement.

11:52:03 From Sara Vogeler : Live in the unknown!!

11:52:05 From Jane Ellison : Patrice, remembering you from 80’s summers. xo

11:52:08 From Jazmin Jewel : I haven't given birth so I'm just wondering based on what I've
heard.

11:52:17 From Aaron Bendix-Balgley : If we've learned a truth, that's gonna get in the way. I like
it.

11:52:21 From Marghe Mills-Thysen : In the Feldenkrais Method we talk of the First
Approximation in first times practicing something, exploring, learning, getting to know

11:52:33 From Laura Ann Wolfe : Thank you for making more expanse for exploration.

11:52:45 From Dani Lima : yes but ir semms easier to do it around isquios

11:52:46 From Patrice Heber : Hello Jane. Of course I remember you fondly. We had that
adventure with the bat one night!! Remember

2020 Fall Series – Class 7 16

11:52:52 From Louisa Turner : you still got it though Bonnie!

11:52:54 From Sara Vogeler : Paula, yes, you can play with the 8 in all three planes, and if you
want, add the semicircular canals in the inner ear!

11:52:56 From Laura Ann Wolfe : And discovery!

11:53:14 From Zaia Bachrach (zAy-uh) : love and welcome the body!

11:53:15 From Basha : If you have questions for Bonnie about the material she’s presented,
please post them in the Q&A. She will respond to as many as she can in just a little bit.

11:53:17 From Paula Josa-Jones : Sara! Lovely!

11:53:27 From Jane Ellison : Patrice, that was my first association when I saw you here.

11:53:35 From Hannah Setu : Oh yes, I have had an episiotomy more than once and a repair, the
scars took forever to soften. Had not thought deeply about how this affects us in the way Bonnie
explains.

11:54:02 From Patrice Heber : Jane, I’m laughing and remembering

11:54:04 From Marghe Mills-Thysen : Galen Kranz's book "The Chair"

11:54:05 From Brid Connole : wonder if its possible to dissolve colorectal adhesions from
endometriosis?

11:54:07 From Mary Jo Fulmer : How does the condense/expand correlate to the figure 8? Is it
free play with that?

11:54:20 From Sara Vogeler : You can add your semicircular canals, your eyes, your pelvic floor
and do 8s all together!!!! HAAAAHHHHA!!!

11:54:21 From Bob L : My time just vanished...

11:54:29 From Bob L : uor..

11:54:33 From Bob L : Our

11:54:34 From Hannah Setu : Yet another reason to have as natural a childbirth as possible, with
midwife if possible.

11:54:41 From Sara Vogeler : Mary Jo—free to play with that!

11:54:46 From Mary Jo Fulmer : thanks

11:54:51 From Hannah Setu : Sara LOLOL

11:55:15 From Sara Vogeler : Hannah : ) LOL!

11:55:37 From Bob L : figure 8 through perineal body released my hip joints. rotators...

11:55:54 From Bob L : feel tingle down to my toes

2020 Fall Series – Class 7 17

11:56:05 From Jazmin Jewel : Oh yes, I have had an episiotomy more than once and a repair, the
scars took forever to soften. Had not thought deeply about how this affects us in the way Bonnie
explains.
@Hannah
Thank you for this - I know my body produces a lot of scar tissue and it doesn't soften well, I had an
emergency surgery on a paraumbilical hernia. It is now, ten years later because I am massaging it.

11:56:09 From vivien : @Bob I feel that release in the hip too

11:56:38 From Bob L : @Vivien. cool, huh

11:56:42 From Sara Vogeler : How exciting Bob and Vivien!

11:57:15 From Hannah Setu : Oh that piriformis! So many of my massage clients need attention
here!

11:57:37 From Liz Atkins : Armadeep, could we see full screen view of the skeleton and bonnie?

11:57:46 From Sara Vogeler : Can’t see Bonnie

11:57:49 From Louisa Turner : i wonder how many gluteal bursitis are from a weakness in one of
the quarters of the pelvic floor?

11:58:18 From 429439b : how do you find the pubic disc other than imagining the weight
through it?

11:58:20 From Elizabeth J Lutz : only see the drwing

11:58:31 From Rachael : Amazing I just realised I can make the picture of Bonnie or the
illustration bigger, and smaller!

11:58:37 From Rachael : Can see both

11:58:47 From Cynthia Williams : I can see both

11:58:48 From Prema Anand : they can slide the middle bar

11:58:52 From Rachael : I think that will be to do with people's settings

11:58:55 From space4movement and Andrea : i can see both!

11:59:00 From Prema Anand : and it can move the size of the two screen

11:59:03 From Janet Kahn : I see both

11:59:14 From Camelia Shakti : What does dorsal view mean.. a bit confused ;)

11:59:26 From Sae Tsuchihasi : they can adjust zoom setting to see both views

11:59:35 From Sara Vogeler : Oh, thanks for mentioning that middle bar !!!

11:59:38 From Kathryn Grey : I can see both. I have Bonnie on platform and on You tube. 2
Computers….

www.bonniebainbridgecohen.com
2020 Fall Series – Class 7 18

11:59:46 From Sara Vogeler : Dorsal means back

11:59:47 From Patrice Heber : Does piriformis attach at greater trochanter??

12:00:02 From Sara Vogeler : Yes

12:00:13 From Robbyn Scott : using the tissue technique is helpful

12:00:22 From Basha : If you were not able to see Bonnie and the drawing, it likely has to do
with your settings in Zoom. When we show both again, you can see if going into Speaker or Gallery view
in Zoom makes a difference for you, then let us know.

12:01:09 From Hannah Setu : Louisa, late reply, agree on your bursitis comment.

12:01:53 From Louisa Turner : and often pubis is very stiff too Hannah

12:02:32 From Elizabeth J Lutz : I don't have an option to chooe speaker/gallery veiw. on this
computer. I can go on my phone and look at utube

12:03:08 From elizabeth poole : is the tushy depression where the sciatic notch is located?

12:03:27 From Hannah Setu : Welp, I can see there is a true market for a properly suspended,
dynamic, tight but elastic skeletal model.

12:03:31 From Rima Faber : I have learned that in times of great stress the piriformis will spasm
in an attempt o hold us "upright." This often causes lower back pain.

12:03:38 From Basha : I apologize, I may have given you incorrect information. We'll look into
why some people are able to see the split screen and others are not. It may have to do with a Zoom
update.

12:03:49 From Hannah Setu : Yes Rima!

12:03:50 From Sara Vogeler : yes, but very deep, Elizabeth, and depends on your shape.

12:04:15 From Sae Tsuchihasi : if possible please show with the pic. of muscles again?

12:05:29 From Basha : If you have questions for Bonnie about the material she’s presented,
please post them in the Q&A. She will respond to as many as she can in just a little bit.

12:05:37 From Bob L : please show leg and foot with rotation of external obturator

12:06:33 From Firat Yener : can we see more of b’s leg movement

12:06:53 From Suzy Lovegrove : My other leg is feeling very dead!

12:07:16 From Janet Kahn : As a bodyworker the best technique I have found for helping people
with sciatic pain is Zero Balancing. There are piriformis stretches one can do for oneself which are also
helpful

12:07:57 From Suzy Lovegrove : The side we are working on feels ALIVE!

2020 Fall Series – Class 7 19

12:07:59 From Patrice Heber : So excellent Bonnie. Very generous of you. Loving these muscle
details of the pelvic floor and the hip socket!!!!

12:08:14 From Susan Bauer : are we going to do the other side together..?

12:08:24 From Mariah Maloney : Thank you for “muscle mind unknown” :)

12:08:29 From vivien : I feel very light in my body after this exploration

12:08:32 From Sara Vogeler : the sciatic nerve passes through the piriformis

12:08:35 From Robbyn Scott : Im curious, now about the details of moving the leg back

12:08:43 From Rosanna she : yes

12:08:44 From Hannah Setu : Janet I am also a bodyworker, would you mind sharing website or
email? mine is hannah setu (dot com)

12:08:47 From Bob L : nice flow in images

12:08:56 From Kathy JO : YES

12:09:11 From Kathy JO : better

12:10:22 From Bob L : excellent!

12:10:52 From martha eddy : Every time Bonnie walks away I enjoy expanding with the
exhalation and when she present information I’m enjoying the condensing of my two diaphragms as I
breath in the information (a kind of absorbing). This helps me let go of muscle mind getting
overwhelmed and also helps my postural support.

12:11:59 From Marghe Mills-Thysen : Please ask Bonnie to include which way she is cur renting a
muscle: origin to insertion or vice versa; leg to pelvis/ to sacrum....etc. Thanks.

12:12:04 From Linda Jantz : Bonnie pic small

12:12:15 From Linda Jantz : in case

12:12:15 From Janet Mcgregor : can you reove drawing please so we can see Bonnie

12:12:21 From Firat Yener : pls focus on bonnie

12:12:40 From Susan Carbin-Hardee : try going up to view options at top

12:13:11 From Firat Yener : doesn’t work

12:13:16 From Susan Topf : I have a vertical slide bar in my MacBook screen where you can
make bonnie’s video larger ~ may help :)

12:13:19 From Miriam P : you can resize the two images. make bonnie bigger by draggling the
square.

12:13:28 From Firat Yener : yay

2020 Fall Series – Class 7 20

12:13:57 From Jazmin Jewel : there are so many words here that are going to take me many
years to learn...

12:15:09 From Cynthia Williams : the 6 deep provide a more integrated balance and support

12:15:39 From Louisa Turner : does each side of the pelvic floor condense on that weight
bearing side during walking?

12:15:49 From Sara Vogeler : say again please!

12:15:54 From Hannah Setu : Ha! We are greedy for ALL from Bonnie; asking for the diagram
and the whole body and the close-up and the repeat.... This takes time away from Q&A all the toggling,
just sayin'...Oh yes todays class is one to be repeated till we can absorb all. <3

12:15:56 From Amal ElWardi : To be clear, sacrum expands on movement and condenses when
we shift/step onto leg?

12:16:23 From alyssadodson : please demonstrate the gemelli movement again?

12:16:41 From alyssadodson : Thank you

12:16:41 From Angelique Sideris : Every time Bonnie shows movement the camera freezes.

12:17:00 From Prema Anand : true here

12:17:29 From Sara Vogeler : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_rotator_group

12:18:10 From Diane : Noticing much more differentiation in the foot of the leg I’ve been playing
with—each of the lateral rotators seems to activate a slightly different part of the foot.

12:18:40 From Hannah Setu : intero whaaa?

12:18:48 From Lauree Wise : Frozen for internal obturator demo now

12:18:53 From Paula Josa-Jones : Internal obdurator

12:19:08 From Hannah Setu : TY

12:19:25 From carmela : internal obturator

12:19:41 From Debra Lacey : Maybe a colored piece of fabric for next week?

12:20:04 From Robbyn Scott : yes, Debra!

12:20:09 From Debra Lacey : I guess Bonnie and I are connected!

12:20:12 From Miriam P : use a colored sock : )

12:20:27 From Bob L : therabands elp to show muscles

2020 Fall Series – Class 7 21

12:20:45 From Moonshadow : Colored electrical tape is useful

12:21:02 From Sara Vogeler : Bonnie will repeat this next week, so don’t panic!!!

12:21:05 From Robbyn Scott : Your knowledge is amazing, Bonnie and your relaying of it is truly
a feat to be admired!

12:21:09 From amelia ender : As someone who is sitting in front of the screen a lot these days, I
love finding the expression, articulation and fun of my lower brain! - helps me release my neck and eyes

12:21:14 From Kathy JO : May be Concentration is the key

12:21:14 From Lisa Clark : Colored masking tape

12:21:33 From Bob L : dancing Shiva

12:21:39 From Kathy JO : Accepting What as it is

12:21:51 From Romanie : The miracle called a body :)

12:21:53 From Amal ElWardi : :Through the pelvis is key

12:22:45 From Amal ElWardi : Dancing Shiva. Perf Bob.

12:23:17 From Prema Anand : I am sure i will need to repeat many times....

12:23:18 From Bob L : @Amal :)

12:24:36 From Sara Vogeler : rectus femoris

12:24:44 From Kristel Seidler : i’m going to replay this a few times as it’s extremely valuable
demonstration and anatomy talk. agreed this is a challenge and I love it!

12:24:55 From Louisa Turner : quadratus femoris

12:25:01 From Hannah Setu : oyezzz 'the hardest class'... glory be...thank you Bonnie

12:25:57 From Bob L : I can appreciate how low these 3 (6) muscles are. Thx.

12:26:35 From Hannah Setu : muluh banda? sp?

12:26:47 From Suzy Lovegrove : I feel like John Cleese!

12:27:02 From Laura Ríos : where does the internal obturator stars and ends?
