Pain can be a pain. Trust me. I know. As someone who has broken countless bones, had numerous reconstructive orthopaedic surgeries, too many whiplashes to count (oh, my poor neck muscles!), one severe concussion, and terrible skin rashes that resembled chemical burns… I have been through the pain [...]
It’s been 11 years… and I stand by my word on this. When I sat down to write this, I had a specific direction in mind, but I shifted gears… I was going to write about my past in the fitness, nutrition, and mind-body worlds, But instead, I [...]
True story: In a recent interview, I was asked to define Feldenkrais, and I like my answer. So my team and I turned it into a 4-minute ‘crash course’ (with some fun imagery) that depicts ‘What is Feldenkrais?’ Another true story: Feldenkrais, the method, quite literally saved me [...]

In this video: 1 - I share some exciting (and statistically significant!) findings from a research study the University of Victoria did, looking at the effectiveness of my 12-week curriculum, [...]
Time and time again, our students tell us that it wasn’t until they started my online curriculums that they FINALLY felt a difference at the core of their nervous system physiology. Why is this? Many had been dedicated to mind-body awareness via foundational traditions like Buddhism and mindfulness [...]
In early 2023, I recorded a video breaking down some of the biggest myths (7 to be exact) around nervous system regulation and healing trauma. If you’ve been following my lead over the past few years on the importance of building somatic capacity and healing at a more [...]
