WHAT’S THE HARDEST THING ABOUT FOUNDATION TRAINING? One of the biggest hidden challenges I see in my classes isn’t doing the practice or learning it, even though both are hard. The struggle isn’t there because we’re incapable. It’s because self-criticism shows up faster than learning and faster than the body has time to adapt from the practice.

When self-criticism comes in, cues can start to land as judgment instead of support. Grief and frustration then overwhelm the system, which makes learning much harder. For me, shame can turn something into a crisis instead of a puzzle to be explored.

I often expect the process to move faster than it does. When it doesn’t, the self-critical part steps forward, helped along by a culture that wants everything fast, productive, and measurable, even though emotional, biological, healing, and learning processes don’t really work that way.

This makes me curious about the mechanism of that moment.

If we pause the thinking and notice what’s happening in the body with those thoughts, there can be sensations like tension in the forehead or around the cranium, restriction in the throat, tightening in the chest, shallow breath, a sinking feeling in the belly, tension around the sacrum.

From an IFS lens, I wonder if this is a protector or manager part stepping forward quickly, trying to prevent something from getting worse. What is this part trying to do? What is it protecting?

Is there a younger part underneath that learned early that mistakes brought criticism, took away things that were important or disconnection? In a class, does the body experience cues as a relational moment, not just a technical one?

From an attachment perspective, learning in front of others can activate old patterns — hyper-vigilance, striving, collapse, shutting down — especially if mistakes once meant losing safety or connection.

None of this feels like pathology to me.
It feels like intelligence. Parts doing their best to keep connection intact. If we are awake to this process we can meet very tender places in ourselves. The most important things, the things that organize our posture, our relationships & our life. This is the potential of practice.

FOUNDATION TRAINING | WHO IS IT FOR?
Foundation Training is one of the most powerful accessory practices for bringing the body toward its full potential.

• Athletes who want to improve performance

• Anyone with injuries or pain: back pain, SI joint pain, herniated or bulging discs, spondylitis, spondylolisthesis, sciatica, scoliosis, hip, knee, shoulder or neck pain, nerve pain, plantar fasciitis, rib injuries, or difficulty breathing fully

• Anyone with tension, limited range of motion, hyper-mobility (including EDS), or lack of mobility

• Office workers dealing with pain from sitting and computer work

• Those experiencing degeneration or limitation with aging

• Moms ready to re-center and strengthen their body after pregnancy

• Movement practitioners of all kinds: Yoga, Dance, Martial Arts, Climbing, Cycling, CrossFit, Running, Skiing, Boxing, and teachers wanting to feel the body’s inherent strength and suppleness come online daily

• Physical laborers (farmers, gardeners, builders, construction workers) who want movement patterns that build the body up instead of breaking it down and want to finish their day feeling good

• Bodyworkers, therapists, chiropractors, PTs, OTs, and doctors who want practical tools their clients can use

• Anyone wanting greater breath capacity, embodiment, and a deeper relationship to their anatomy

And truly… everyone.

YOU WILL LEARN:

• To see your body as a web of interrelated parts, rather than isolated “good” or “bad” pieces — and how this web shifts, tightens, compensates, and can be guided back toward being supple, buoyant, balanced, and healthy.

• To understand where symptoms come from, their origin, how imbalances arise, and how to work with them skillfully rather than suppressing or fighting them.

• To recognize habitual patterns of posture, breath, and movement that create unnecessary stress and strain, compromising joints, weakening muscles, and restricting organ function, and to learn how to move and breathe in ways that feel freer, lighter, and more easeful, creating space, joint lubrication, integrated strength, and optimal physiological expression.

• Somatosensation: the skill of sensing and translating symptoms, building a more complete body map so sensation can inform intelligent, responsive action.

• How to retrain movement patterns that slowly break the body down into ones that actively build the body up.

• How to build strength in weak or under-supported places while creating large, integrated movement patterns that protect joints and spine, support organs, nerves, and lymphatic flow, and orient the head and neck to support the brainstem, cranial nerves, and vagus nerve.

• How to carry these patterns into daily life. Foundation Training is functional and integrative, an adjunct practice designed to help your body feel and perform better in whatever your life and heart call you toward.

Performance
Working smarter, not just harder, by priming movement patterns that maximize the use of the most efficient muscles, with a comprehensive focus on concentric, eccentric, and isometric training.

Longevity
Stop adjusting for poor movement patterns and change them. Avoid breakdown by setting your body up for conditioned responses that create durability rather than compensation.

Recovery with purpose
Establish a focused recovery plan that improves breathing capacity and body awareness, while sustaining the movement patterns that give you an edge by learning how to implement them into daily life.

Take control of your posture
Everything we do is either building us up or breaking us down. Foundation Training is a unique combination of prehab and rehab, helping both prevent and treat pain and injuries.

Counteract the daily grind
Phones, computers, and commuting create postures and patterns that lead to degeneration. Learn how to move and position yourself to counterbalance what is destructive.

Participate in life without pain
Aging doesn’t mean falling apart or giving up what you love. Your body is always adapting when given the right input. Daily tasks and exercise can be moments of strength and capability.

Empower yourself
Pain medications only cover symptoms temporarily. Injuries don’t fix themselves. Learn exercises that can be done anywhere, without equipment, and directly applied to daily life.

WAHOO! WINTER FOUNDATION TRAINING COURSES!
PHASE 1 | SUNDAYS AT 11 AM | FEB. 1 - MAR. 22
PHASE 7 | MONDAYS AT 5:45 PM | JAN. 19 - MAR. 9
PHASE 7 | TUESDAYS AT 9:00 AM | JAN. 20 - MAR. 10
PHASE 4-5 | THURSDAYS AT 5:45 PM | JAN. 22 - MAR. 12

Foundation Training is learned in phases. Students start at phase 1 and work their way to phase 6. Each phase builds off of the skills, understanding and full body changes that happen in the previous phase. The body actually adapts and changes from this work so moving onto a next phase has to come from those changes having taken place. Phase 7 is a class for folks who have completed all the phases but love the practice and want to keep doing it!

This winter there is a Phase 1 for new students to join into and then there are two phase 7 courses and one phase 4 & 5. In phase 4 & 5 we will work on thoracic opening through using the entire body to create that expansion and phase 5 is the beginning of learning spirals.

FOUNDATION TRAINING COURSES: Foundation Training emphasizes the relationship between the structure and function of the human body. This movement practice follows a belief in the body’s ability to self-heal and self-regulate. Foundation training is designed to facilitate your body’s innate ability to self-heal.

Practitioners aim to align the body’s structure (bones, muscles, ligaments, fascia, viscera) so that NAVL (nerves, arteries, veins, lymphatics) can operate unobstructed. This practical, body-based, grounded and biomechanical system focuses on structural changes to facilitate a physiological response in the body.

By working with an in-depth understanding of functional anatomy and the application of Foundation Training’s principles this practice aims to help the body self-heal and self-regulate.

Class Schedule:
➡️ WED AM | INTRO = 4 spots!
➡️ WED PM | ALL LEVELS = 5 spots!
➡️ THURS PM | PHASE 4 = 2 spots!

✨ FALL FOUNDATION TRAINING COURSES ✨

🔥 SUCCESS STORY:
“After a decade of endurance sports, I was in so much daily pain I thought I might lose my career as a flight paramedic. Chiropractic, PT, and prescriptions weren’t helping.

Then I found Foundation Training. Within DAYS I felt relief. Now I move pain-free, I play with my kids, and I have a new lease on life. I do Foundation every day—and I tell everyone I know about it.”

Foundation Training is about consistency, body mechanics, and science-backed results. It is practical, body-based, and grounded in biomechanics. You will get results, feel progress, and reclaim your abilities.
