The Most Important Posture and Movement Practices That I Teach

Welcome, and Thank You!

I’m excited to share these exercises with you, and hope you get as much out of them as my patients, my students, and I have. All of these exercises are in the process of being turned into YouTube videos, so visit my YouTube channel and subscribe to be notified of new videos.

What These Practices Are

 Of all the exercises that I teach to patients and students, these are by far the most important and impactful.

 I’ve learned hundreds of exercises in the decades that I’ve been a clinician, a martial artist, and a teacher. Some were good, some were even great, but many were ineffective, inefficient, needlessly complex, or even dangerous to practice without strict supervision. Some were great for a very specific purpose in a very specific context, such as in a particular martial art, but were unhelpful outside of that context.

 The exercises and practices in this document are the ones that I have found over the years to strike the right balance between being:

  Simple

Safe

Easy to learn

Easy to teach

Effective at addressing the most common postural and movement issues that I come across when treating patients and teaching students, such as - 

• Forward head posture and stiff neck

• Tight, rounded and/or elevated shoulders

• Stiffness of the mid back, upper back and ribcage

• Inhibited and inefficient breathing

• Inability to effectively stabilize the trunk, core and pelvis

• Weakness and tightness of the major hip muscles

• Weakness and lack of control of the ankle and the arch of the foot

• Poor balance

• And many more . . .
