The course is for you, everyone. Over the last 30 years I’ve worked at understanding how people use their bodies and how to improve their physical skills. Now it’s time to share these secrets with everyone else. It’s information that everyone should know about themselves.
I actually started out working on other peoples bodies but it wasn’t until I started trying to understand my own body that I really began learning. It was so hard, and there was no-one to ask.
Initially I couldn’t even understand the questions I wanted to ask. I had the textbooks and other practitioners around me trying to help but I couldn’t grasp the difference between the anatomy and theory on one hand and the way it felt and looked on the other.
I could understand the information and guidance but I couldn’t see what I was doing wrong, or know what I was doing right. I didn’t understand how the ‘right’ thing felt, or should feel. I knew how the ‘wrong’ thing felt – it hurt! I did the exercises, had the treatments, took the pills, tried really hard and made some small gains.
“It’ll take time” people said. “You just have to accept it, there’s nothing else that can be done”
Not good enough!
At this stage I was working as a physio again, helping other people with their rehabilitation, often from the same sort of problems as I was having – and that seemed crazy. Were they experiencing the same things as I was to one degree or another? This is where Postural Patterning came from.
I started looking at what I was actually doing when standing, walking, sitting. Looking in a mirror. What started as an occasional ‘eureka’ moment when I would suddenly realise something about what my body was actually doing became, slowly, a waterfall of awareness. Individual aspects of movement began to link up. If this thing was happening then it was causing something else to happen somewhere else. The links became chains, the chains became patterns.
Eventually, understanding the patterns meant that I could see one factor and know 6 other things that were likely to be happening. I began to understand my body and my physical abilities got much better. I had control again.
It took me a long time to get my hips working properly. I learnt that you can’t just fix one part of your body, you have to consider the whole picture. Everything affects everything. Initially it seemed an overwhelming task, so much to do and to know, but gradually it became simpler and more organised.
I’ve worked with this system for 25 years now and have helped thousands of peoples resolve their postural difficulties. Whether they were experiencing pain, movement limitations, poor performance, or needed rehabilitation this holistic approach of balancing their complete body, all their physical problems at once has proved successful. It gives people the ability to manage their own bodies. I can’t fix them, but I can show them how to fix themselves.
This knowledge is what the course offers.
