Here’s Stephs testimonial:
“Before discovering Functional Patterns (FP) through my naturopath, I thought I was doing everything right with exercise and lifestyle. I was weight training and doing reformer Pilates multiple times a week, but I was constantly revising my workouts due to injuries. Years of gym training hadn’t improved my pain, leaving me hopeless and frustrated.
My main issue was hip pain from a labral tear, likely caused by hip dysplasia and years of gymnastics.. Though I believed I was body-aware, FP revealed how much I didn’t know.
With Mark’s guidance, I’m learning how the body is meant to move and how to correct myself. FP has been challenging but rewarding. I now have tools to manage soreness and often refer back to the 10-week course. Mark’s firm yet supportive coaching has built my confidence, allowing me to push myself in ways I never thought possible. For the first time, I feel empowered to move pain-free.
Before FP, I woke daily in pain, hobbling out of bed with a sore lower back and hips. Walking short distances hurt, and my whole body ached. Now, I wake without pain and can walk much longer distances. FP feels corrective and natural—not just for training but everyday movement.
Mark has also guided me in lifestyle changes and shifting my mental state. I wish I’d started FP as a teenager when I was active in sports. Though some pain lingers, I know correcting 44 years of poor movement takes time and effort.
