Effective movement is the foundation of fitness, function, and injury prevention. As fitness professionals, we observe our clients move every day. Yet, very few courses are available to teach the fundamentals of proper movement, how to analyze it, and how we can improve it.
Teaching movement goes well beyond simply knowing correct exercise technique for traditional lifts. In fact, without correct movement patterns, your clients shouldn’t be using external loads. With proper Primal Pattern analysis skills, you will be able to more effectively help your clients reach their goals, avoid preventable injuries, and get better results in less time.
Fitness coaching should start with a solid understanding the complex interactions of the body, injuries, joint and muscle function, and the compensation patterns that we present at rest and in dynamic movement. Then, it’s about taking this information and understanding the impact it has during both real life, and exercise.

“Tim knows his SH*T! The material was fabulous and extremely helpful.”
“I left the course with my mind blown – all the things I went into the day thinking I thought I knew well, I didn’t! Keeping my mind open to the different ways of looking at movement and relearning them, I realize, is so incredibly vital for continuous improvement and progression with myself and clients! Thank you for the (re)education!”
