How many of your clients seem disconnected from their bodies when training?
Studies on positive focus and visualisation while exercising show improvements in performance and training outcomes. As Fitness Professionals, we must engage with our clients, educate them and remind them to be conscious of their movements.
From warmup to cool down, we have the power to change our clients’ movement potential and help them live a better life.
Join Movement Therapist Guillaume Tual in this interactive session and learn how you can help your clients reconnect with their inner athletes to achieve their goals faster. From quadrupedal movement training to barefoot stimulation, learn how conscious training combined with your fitness knowledge will improve your client’s ability to move and lift better while decreasing their risk of injury.
