"October 14th and the skies were gray, a rainy day in Reading, PA that was perfect to perturb some paradigms around the power of a pattern. We mined the pattern’s positional influence setting the stage for the task at hand and ending our day with a repositioning plan.

Day two dawned appropriately repositioned, the sun shining down elevating our condition. An earnest query session kicked off the day and made this instructor excited by the interplay.  

Focused and engaged, we delved into the test designed to guide our retraining the best. With the Hruska Adduction Lift Test leading the way, we endeavored to find and to feel the myo-ingredients that would progress the scores so we can all own our floors."

A big thank you to everyone who joined me this past weekend and did such an impressive job of focusing and working to apply and experience the material, and most importantly, asking questions that facilitated a clearer and deeper appreciation of the content. I would encourage all of you to embrace the uncertainty and discomfort that invariably accompanies new paradigm’s and know that this is a sure sign of growth.  

A big thank you to Frank Mallon, DPT, PRC for driving up from Philly both days to assist in lab and adding to our discussions, his presence was such a boon to our group!
Thank you to Alliance Fitness Center and Collin McGee for hosting and making sure we had what was needed for the success of our weekend.

It is always nice to have a home game. Over the last two years I have had the good fortune to teach Myokinematic Restoration on both coasts and multiple points in between. This past weekend I was able to welcome a group of movement specialists to my little mountain town, Missoula, MT.

Revo Training Center hosted the course, and we had a great group consisting of Missoulians, Montanans, as well as representatives from WA, ID, AZ, NM, and TX. We opened the weekend with a discussion of a quote from Mr. Hemingway that is found on page 1 in the manual, “Never confuse movement with action”. We endeavored to appreciate how patterns of human asymmetry dictate the position of the body and ultimately whether the movement elicited by a muscle contraction supports the action we are striving for.

We focused on action around an acetabulum on a femur, on action that is preceded by appropriate position, and on action that requires inhibition of our dominant L AIC patterning. The group had great questions and insights throughout which fostered a running discussion that was not only enjoyable, but added to the depth and applicability of the course.

Thank you to Revo Training Center for hosting and thank you to all the attendees who spent a beautiful September weekend in Missoula. While we may not have been adventuring in the great outdoors, we hopefully all had a chance to expand our view of the human body in Big Sky Country!
