About Jessica Silver

After years of ballet training and sitting hunched at a computer, my shoulders felt like they were held up around my ears and my hips felt tight and stiff, as if my legs were wooden.  I began searching for something (anything!) that could make my body feel free and light. In 1999 I was Rolfed. After the first session my body felt lighter and freer than it had in years. My shoulders dropped from my ears, my hips opened and the physical changes in my body made it look and feel longer and stronger. As my structure changed and my body felt more comfortable, my perspectives on life and relationships became clearer and I studied meditation and yoga. In February, 2000 I became a certified Structural Integration Practitioner at the Guild for Structural Integration in Boulder, Colorado and then completed my advanced training.

I was fortunate to have been taught this work by Dr. Rolf's senior students who are dedicated to its traditional teachings. Since then, I have had a full time practise and continue to further my education by participating regularly in Structural Integration workshops to bring new skills and knowledge to my community in Vancouver, Canada.
