Create Your Health
Health and movement are a 24 hour commitment.
Who you are in the world manifests itself 100% of the time. Therefore, make good concious decisions.
Make your combat stance, your every day stance.
Integrate all of your systems. We are not just a bone system. We are not just a muscular system. We are not just a connective tissue system. We are a system of systems.
Be movement rich by creating a lexicon of movement patterns composed of variability and variety.
Practice doesn't make perfect, perfect practice makes perfect. Also, continuous practice makes permanent.
Keep it Simple
As we age, we focus too much on specific joint range of motion and strength and not enough on total body movement ability.
We need to assess the quality of essential movement patterns, quantify them, then create a plan that enhances overall human function. This will not only improve people's pain, but also prevent it from happening in the first place.
Address postural and movement dysfunction, don't just chase pain.
