At Total Movement, we have only the best Practitioners, and Stephen Hooper is one of the best
The man behind Effortless Superhuman .... If you’ve met Steve, you’ll know — he’s not loud, he’s not flashy, and he’s not trying to sell you anything.
He’s quietly dedicated. Focused. Someone who genuinely wants to help you heal.
Born in Kitchener, Ontario, Steve grew up immersed in sport — ice hockey, baseball, powerlifting, and track. He was a national-level athlete, a committed student, and someone who’s always been deeply driven by performance, health, and discipline.
He moved to Perth in his 20s to study physiotherapy, and since then, he's built an incredible body of work — from founding the Body Genius Institute to co-creating Effortless Superhuman with me, his wife Max.
Steve has authored five books, lectured for the Australian Institute of Fitness, and worked with thousands of clients — but what people don’t often see is the day-to-day dedication that makes it all possible.
He’s up at 4:30am every morning preparing for clients, researching, writing, and refining his systems. He trains four times a week — not for vanity, but for clarity. The gym is where he reflects. Recharges. And shows up for himself in the same way he shows up for others.
At home, Steve is a devoted husband and father of three. He’s currently coaching our son Ryder’s soccer team — two nights a week and every Sunday — and still makes time for beach walks, picnics, and watching the sunset when we can. He loves a quiet game of cribbage, movie nights, and those evenings when we’re all around the table sharing a meal. Sometimes you’ll find him sitting and colouring in with the kids while everyone talks around him — present, calm, and completely content just being with his family.
Steve is softly spoken, deeply generous, and quietly intense. He has strong opinions and shares them with honesty, integrity, and care. He’s always learning, always growing — and never content with surface-level solutions.
Effortless Superhuman is an extension of who he is.
If you’ve worked with Steve, you’ve likely felt it — his precision, his presence, and the sense that you’re finally in the right hands.
We’re proud of what we’ve built.
But more than anything, I’m proud of him.
