From a young age I have had the influence of self improvement and physical activities after being brought up at the Outward Bound Base camp of Australia for the first thirteen years of my life (where my Dad was executive director). I was involved in many school sports growing up but my main focus was martial arts for which I studied for over 11 years obtaining a black belt in Judo, Jujitsu and Karate. I also went on to do boxing and wrestling. Due to this passion in training and helping other obtaining a higher state of fitness and wellbeing it seemed to be a natural progression to move into a physical trainer role. This journey then evolved even more after realising the limitations with working with just the physical aspect of the human body, delving into the more in-depth world of nutrition, posture and functional training, and other healing modalities.
Like many big changes in our lives the catalyst for this transformation came from adversity. I had been in the fitness industry for about 8 months and was following the same route that most trainers go down which is a basic knowledge of the muscle groups, how to work exercise machines and pretty much just work the body like a exercise machine. Make it bigger, stronger, looking better regardless the tole it might have on my body in the long run. So like most trainers I look good on the outside, could lift heavy weights and thought that's all that mattered. While in side my body was telling a different story.
I have witnessed in my experience that if we ignore our body and the subtle signs it tries to tell us then it will take its ability of functioning away from us in one way or another. Mine was in quite a dramatic way, while snowboarding last 40 m of the last run I had a little tumble and big BANG! my back went out. Was really a time bomb waiting to go off as I had all these big strong outside muscle but no weak subtle inner core muscles. So I could walk for about 2 weeks I took this time to re-access my beliefs on how we should work with the body and spirit. I than began to reeducate myself with a deeper understanding of our body mind and spirit work and have continued on ever since.
So please don’t have to learn the hard way like me because some things are really painful and hard to come back from. Join me on this journey not out of fear but out of love. Love for life, love bettering your self, Love for you family, love for living in line with your spirit and passions, love for giving back to the universe with gratitude for all the generosity and abundance it has created in your life.
