Mindful Movement
Credited properly, as physical culture legend Dr. Ed Thomas says: “At different phases of our life, if we are lucky enough to become enlightened to it, we understand the body to be a toy, then a tool, then a temple.”
The earlier we see it as a temple, the better we age—and the coursework in this workshop is the movement portion’s Holy Grail.
WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?
Beginner and Advanced Training Students / Students looking to enhance full body mobility and stability, students looking to increase breath capacity, students looking to regain shoulder function, students looking for mindful training practices for not only recovery but that are also strength training practices in and of themselves. And to all training warriors: If you train hard, you need active recovery training in your practice. This course will equip you.

BREATHWORK
Underrated? It sure is. In this workshop you will learn an unorthodox way of learning how to re-engage your breath for mental and physical health, one that is becoming more popular in the medical community.
Innovative to say the least, this method brings the lungs back to life and does so with an affordable and easily accessible tool that naturally teaches you how to breathe from the belly. Perfect for your own practice, and for those who coach or train others.
Here are just a few benefits:
1. Improved Breath Control
Diaphragmatic Breathing: It encourages deep, diaphragmatic breathing rather than shallow chest breathing, which is beneficial for lung capacity and respiratory health.
2. Enhanced Respiratory Function
Stronger Lungs: Regular practice of this method can strengthen lung muscles and improve respiratory efficiency, which is of great benefit to all, and is of special benefit to individuals with asthma or COPD.
Lung Capacity: It naturally trains you to take longer, deeper breaths, improving oxygen intake and stamina.
3. Stress Reduction
Mindfulness: Controlled breathing promotes relaxation and reduces stress by encouraging a meditative state.
Rhythmic Focus: The rhythmic breathing required can have a calming effect, similar to practices like yoga or meditation.
4. General Health Benefits
Improved Posture: Proper practice encourages good posture, which is important for both breathing and overall well-being.
Cardiovascular Support: Regular deep breathing helps stimulate circulation and improve heart health.
INDIAN CLUBS
Very rich in history with an ancient lineage, Indian Clubs have become more popular worldwide over roughly the last decade due to the efforts of a small group of fitness practitioners, one of which is your instructor for this course, Phil Scarito.
Indian Clubs training offers a variety of benefits, making it an excellent addition to fitness routines:
1. Improved Shoulder Mobility: The circular movements help increase flexibility and range of motion in the shoulders, reducing stiffness and the risk of injury.
2. Strength and Endurance: The weighted clubs build functional strength, particularly in the arms, shoulders, and core, while enhancing grip strength.
3. Coordination and Balance: The rhythmic swinging patterns challenge hand-eye coordination and improve overall motor skills.
4. Rehabilitation: Gentle, controlled movements that are ideal for recovering from shoulder injuries and restoring joint health.
5. Stress Relief: The flowing, meditative nature of the movements promotes relaxation and mental focus.
