10:15AM - 11:15AM
The Tongue as the Missing Link How Oral Posture Shapes Fascia, Breath, and Whole-Body Movement with Dr Mandeep Johal
The tongue is one of the body's most overlooked postural muscles, yet it influences breathing, fascial tension, stability, and movement patterns from head to toe. This session combines evidence-based education with guided movement assessments, allowing participants to experience how changes in tongue posture and oral function can immediately alter balance, mobility, and body awareness. Attendees will leave with practical tools to assess and integrate these concepts into clinical practice.
11:15AM - 12:15PM
The Science of Movement Longevity A Sensory Intelligence™ Approach with Dr Emily Splichal
Movement is one of the most powerful predictors of how well we age. In this inspiring session, Dr. Emily Splichal explores the science behind movement longevity through the lens of Sensory Intelligence™—the connection between the feet, fascia, nervous system, and brain. Attendees will discover how sensory input influences balance, stability, resilience, recovery, and overall human performance, while gaining practical strategies to support lifelong movement and healthy aging.
12:15PM - 1:30PM
Lunch + Optional Lunch & Learn
1:30PM - 2:30PM
You are Only Limited by Your Nervous System with Dr Sean Drake
Understanding the nervous system is more than parasympathetic / sympathetic - where emotion and mental trauma are priority over the physical. If this lecture we will dive into the science meets soul. Understanding you can do ANYTHING and that ANYTHING is possible when knowing what modalities to use and why to use them.
2:30PM - 3:30PM
Body Unlocking & The Freedom Within Movement with Dr Neel Bulchandani
This immersive experience blends self-guided manual therapy, somatic movement, and ecstatic dance to help release tension, restore flow, and reconnect you to the intelligence of your body. Through movement, expression, and guided body awareness, attendees will explore greater freedom, vitality, emotional release, and nervous system connection in a powerful experiential session.
3:30PM - 3:45PM
Break
3:45PM - 4:45PM
The Fascia Reset Lab Hydration, Vibration, and Sensory Repatterning with Sue Hitzmann
This multi‑layered session blends fascial hydration techniques, lymphatic drainage and breath work entrainment using low‑frequency vibration, and sensory repatterning techniques to restore clarity to the entire neurofascial system. Participants explore how fluid flow, mechanoreceptor stimulation, and gentle sequencing can calm protective tone and improve movement efficiency. It’s a nervous‑system‑friendly reboot that feels subtle, intelligent, and immediately effective. Ideal for anyone seeking a deeper, more integrated approach to recovery and longevity.
4:45PM - 5:45PM
The Awareness Shift Sensory Movement & Human Perception with Joshua Holland
This experiential session explores how movement, sensation, and perception shape the way we experience and interact with the world around us. Through guided sensory movement practices, attendees will deepen body awareness, enhance nervous system connection, and discover new ways to improve movement quality, presence, and human performance through the power of perception.
Sunday | 9.20.26
8:00AM - 9:00AM
The Floor 4 and the Embryological Phase Shift with Dr Neel Bulchandani
This experiential workshop explores the connection between the floor of the mouth, fascia, and whole-body function. Through guided release techniques and movement practices, attendees will experience changes in the tongue, jaw, palate, and airway while discovering the powerful "Phase Shift"—a cascading response that can reduce tension, improve movement freedom, and enhance overall stability and vitality.
9:00AM - 10:00AM
A Dive into Yourself through Breathwork and Movement with Dr Sean Drake
Knowing your breath is the most important tool you can use when regulating the nervous system. We will DIVE into slowing down, speeding up, and training for a life that is worth living and helping humanity at the same time.
10:00AM - 10:15AM
Break
10:15AM - 11:15aM
Flow State Practical Strategies to Restore the Body's Healing Systems with Dr Perry Nickelston
Learn practical techniques to improve lymphatic flow, reduce inflammation, enhance recovery, and support nervous system regulation. Through hands-on assessment, self-treatment strategies, breathwork, and movement, attendees will experience how restoring flow can immediately impact mobility, resilience, and overall wellbeing.
11:15AM - 12:15PM
Exploring the Neuro-Fascial Interphase Hands-On Lab with Veronika Campbell
This interactive lab introduces foundational neural manipulation techniques designed to improve nerve mobility through the treatment of surrounding fascial tissues.

From Mouth to Movement The Science of Bite, Breath, and Nervous System Regulation with Dr Mandeep Johal
Discover how the bite, jaw position, and breathing patterns influence sensory input, autonomic regulation, and movement efficiency. Through a combination of lecture, live demonstrations, and participant exercises, attendees will explore the relationship between oral function and performance, recovery, and resilience. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how the mouth can serve as a powerful gateway to nervous system regulation and optimal movement.

Reboot Your Body’s Operating System Hand & Foot Neurofascial Therapy with Sue Hitzmann
Your hands and feet are the most information‑dense sensory hubs in your body, constantly shaping how your brain organizes posture, stability, and movement. When those signals get distorted, your whole system compensates. This workshop shows how gentle neurofascial techniques can restore clarity at the endpoints of your movement map, reducing tension and improving alignment in minutes. Participants leave feeling lighter, more stable, and more connected.
3:30pm - 4:30pm
Rediscovering the Intelligent Foot with Joshua Holland
The foot is more than a structure—it is a sensory gateway to movement, perception, and adaptability. This session explores how restoring awareness through the feet can transform movement quality, resilience, and the way we experience the world around us.
