Sandra is currently workingvery closely with Callan's family in regards to moving Callanetics forward and recently spent time at Callan's home. Callan also gave her seal of approval before she passed. I've done the streaming since June. The only other methods involved are adding alignment markers and a few stretches based on Feldenkrais. It also emphasizes the need for relaxation in the poses and they give wxcellent form instuction. It isn't very far removed from the original at all, just better form, really.

UPDATE: I received another email today saying they're extending it to April 6th. I just wanted to let those who signed up know that you'll get to try it out a little longer.

They are now calling themselves Official Callanetics and have re-released all the original Callanetics videos under this new label. Their website is https://callanetics.com/home. Sandra Hanna and Benjamin Davies are very much involved with the new Callanetics and there has even been talk of new DVDs

Sandra is also trained in Thomas Hanna Somatic Exercises and she has incorporated these into her Callanetics classes. They are wonderful. She is a very good teacher, very inspiring.
I just checked out the website, and did I miss some info somewhere, or are they trying to make it appear as though Callan is still alive? I found it disconcerting to read the little note from Callan, and to see that her bio never mentions that she passed away.
