The foundations of human movement development, meaning how our movement started from day 1, is the purest form of human learning that exists. When we can approach new tasks, projects, actions, tough and risky situations, with the principles that build the foundations of early childhood movement development...you can't go wrong. [...]
When I teach my introductory workshops it can often come as a major shock when I tell the story of "How I Got Better" after my accidents and surgeries back in 2000-2001. I was sore, tight, and constantly tearing muscles even with all the great exercise rehabilitation and stretching routines. [...]

This essay is how I see things and what I'd like to do about it. It starts out a little dark, but gives some solutions towards the end, as well as my inspiration for it - so please read all the way through. Irene. // “…we are the most overweight, [...]

When we are doing dynamic activities, such as skiing, we want our big muscle groups to be on-line in such a way that they get active when the time is appropriate, and then inhibited when they are no longer needed. The key words for optimal sports performance are Adaptability and Resiliency. Not [...]
In my last article I wrote about the strange effects of not properly recovering from an accident or injury and how sometimes the same injury can re-occur again (and again) if a few key pieces post-injury don't play out. // Why animals in the wild don't suffer "post-injury" I remember [...]
Did you have an accident, a fall or maybe even some minor bumps and bruises this Summer? If so, you want to make sure you aren't carrying around the injury-ghosts from Summer(s)-past. Why? Any residue from past accidents can actually set up your body to be MORE accident prone in [...]
