About the Instructor: Cass Ghiorse
My work meets at the intersection of science and spirituality, coaching groups and individuals in the tenets of embodiment. I have dedicated 25 years to in-depth studies in applied anatomy, somatic, and functional physiology, gaining insights into the nuances of our body's intricate mechanisms, particularly as they relate to the emotional well-being and the aging process. My practice integrates breathwork, alignment based movement, injury prevention and recovery, empowering clients to navigate the changes that come with life.
Since 2003, I have worked with a diverse population. In the corporate sector I have been a worksite wellness practitioner for Eileen Fisher, Pewabic Ceramics, Factory PR, and restaurant groups around New York. My private clients include corporate executives, new parents, artists and creatives, preteens and teenagers, service industry employees and those in recovery from stroke and illness. I was on staff at various Equinox Clubs for ten years as well as private clubs and studios. I have had the privilege of studying with Leslie Kaminoff and Amy Mathews of the Breathing Project as well Jill Miller, most recently completing her Body By Breath certification. I am a regular guest teacher for Our Breath Collective - an online community guiding people in daily breathes, and providing principle based breath education through workshops and teacher trainings.
Aside from my work as a teacher, coach and mentor - I enjoy being in nature, doing jigsaw puzzles and dancing in the kitchen with my husband and two children. Though I am a native to the east coast, I currently live and practice in Detroit, MI.
