Myoskeletal Alignment Techniques (MAT) Workshops
MAT Sequences for Better Client Outcomes
Tampa, FL. | February 27–28 2027 | with Tammy McCue
Learn practical MAT sequences designed to produce results your clients will notice! In this 16-hour workshop explore the theory behind the common kinetic chain patterns your clients present every week and practice technique sequences you’ll be ready to integrate into the bodywork you already do to improve client outcomes immediately.
Leave inspired, with new tools that elevate your session outcomes without tearing down the bodywork approach you’ve already built.
A sequence is a series of techniques applied to a region or joint. Erik selected and ordered methods to give you the best shot at correcting the biomechanical issues that drive restricted movement, protective guarding, and pain.
What Will I Learn?
- Discover the biomechanics behind the design of each regional sequence and practice sequences with support from MAT Educators and Teaching Assistants.
- Practice MAT techniques organized into effective regional sequences and put them to work right away in your session room.
- Improve foot mechanics, ankle mobility, patella tracking, and femoral position to enhance lower extremity function.
- Address pelvic imbalances through sequences that work with SI motion, the deep rotators, and underrecruited gluteal muscles.
- Relieve low-back pain by freeing hip extension and easing sacral-lumbar compression.
- Address thoracic restrictions that influence ribcage movement.
- Master Erik’s signature neck techniques, built to restore comfortable cervical motion.
- Address forearm rotation and restrictions around the wrist and hand.
- Identify where selected sequences fit into the bodywork you already provide.
New to MAT? These sequences are your road map. You’ll see for yourself, in real time, how combining these techniques changes the way clients move and feel by the end of the session.
Already Practicing MAT? This is where your skills get strategic. You’ll learn how technique order and regional relationships sharpen your clinical reasoning, help you track compensatory patterns through the kinetic chain, and make every session more responsive to what’s actually in front of you.
