Using the Library
The Stability Library – Integrated is a resource that creates endless opportunities for optimal movement.
Simply put, Integrated Stability is a necessity, preventing potential injury from falls or lifting odd objects, moving over uneven surfaces, improving balance in everyday challenges and creating confidence to accomplish your life activities.
Now for the technical blah, blah!
Integrated stability brings harmony to muscular forces around joints and across the body, ensuring every movement is supported, controlled and resilient. This reduces injury risk, improves efficiency and allows the body to adapt with ease to life’s challenges.
Every system in the body is designed to communicate. When communication improves, so too does function. What happens at the big toe will influence the shoulder — and every joint in between. Stability, therefore, is not just a skill, but a conversation that runs through the entire body.
It is not a stand-alone pillar but an integrated quality that flows through breathing, tissue connection and performance. It is not about isolation, but about integration, this is a pivotal key in the Feel SOMA philosophy.
Functional stability is a holistic approach that enhances the body’s ability to move efficiently, safely and with purpose. It goes beyond strength or flexibility in silos, focusing instead on how bones, muscles and fascia collaborate as one intelligent system. Rooted in Self Osteo Myofascial Applications (SOMA), this perspective highlights the vital interplay between tissues and the importance of fascial networks in transmitting force, maintaining structural integrity and supporting performance.
When – Stability should always be integrated into existing programs, before or during programs and exercise.
Flow– Choose a body location/s (ankle, hip, trunk) requiring attention. Perform on both sides, then repeat on the less stable side if required.
Terminology– Our terms may sound unfamiliar, but our instructional videos and coaching tips ensure confidence and success.
Tool – Choose and use whatever tool (stick, band, body weight) you have in your environment or that you enjoy, the movements are everyday patterns – 45–60s each.
Key Reminders
- Breathe throughout movement— breath drives tissue adaptation.
- Keep movements smooth, and rhythmical — nothing should be outside your threshold.
- Follow the videos until confident, before practising independently.
