The first of its kind, a Movement Course designed specifically to enhance and target your movement development.

This course will give you the tools and knowledge to address your strengths and work on your weaknesses, teaching you the necessary skills to get faster, slower, and more controlled while keeping a fluid calmness in your flow.

You will be exposed to many different subject matters that will teach your body to move with grace and precision, throughout our 6 days together you can expect to cover topics such as:

Ground Flow

A concept that has been developed to strengthen your interaction with the floor, making transitions look effortless while using the potential of literally any surface to propel yourself into motion. You will gain insight into how to roll, twist, jump, and absorb seamlessly, transferring one movement into the next.

Soft Acrobatic

Meant for every level of practitioner, this section will teach you how to access the fast-twitch muscles in a variety of movements. Not only will you gain insight into the basis of all acrobatic movements, but you will also begin to get a taste of freedom in space. Think of it this way; in order to achieve an aerial, you will first have to master a cartwheel. Building blocks are essential in the path to higher-level skills and this section will guide you along the path with understandable and attainable progressions.

Mind VS Matter

Testing the threshold of what your mind can handle will be the focus of this section, you will be introduced to a variety of techniques pick up by Slava while training with the Shaolin monks in China. The mind is an incredibly powerful tool and is often what holds us back the most in our movement practice. Together we will challenge ourselves, test the edges, and increase the endurance of our minds to begin to experience what we truly are capable of.

Body Balance

Along with challenging our bodies, we must also take great care in building a strong framework to help protect us from injury. In this section, we will focus on strengthening your slow-twitch muscles through various exercises including long holds and more. Strength and endurance are key in training our body to adapt and endure whatever we throw at it, so be ready to work hard!

Dynamic Flexibility

The combination of flexibility and movement opens the door to an active range of motion, something that has been dormant in many stretching practices. In this section, we will dive deep into subjects such as muscle anatomy, loaded stretching, and end range of motion, power vs. limit, active exits, and more. All of these tools will allow you to experience greater control and freedom through your range.

Exit Strategies/Reaction Training

Everything is great until it’s not. Learning how to react in any situation is an essential human skill that most of us don’t train with intention. Using a variety of games, techniques, and simple props, we will begin to rewire our nervous systems to become vigilant and responsive to their environment. You never know when life will hit you hard, and it is in these moments that we must rely on our instinct and skill to guide us in the right direction.

Each day we will practice a designed set of sequences that will stay with us for the entirety of the training. At the same, we will also cover a variety of different subjects daily to continue growing a strong and educated foundation in ourselves and our practice.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to enhance your body’s education.

Knowing that one-on-one attention is key to developing new skills, there will be a maximum of 15 participants accepted for this course.

•The Road Ahead
There will be 3 stages of development to complete the entire Movement Flow education.

‎

•Level 1
Teaching you the theory and the protocols of the Movement Flow system. This is the foundation of everything that will be built upon in Levels 2 and 3. In Level 1, you will not only learn but integrate the skills into your body offering a wide and dynamic range of movement potential.

‎

•Mentorship
The Mentorship Program is designed specifically for the Movement Flow Level 1 graduate who wishes to start their teaching career in an expedited fashion. We understand that it may be many months for some to complete their Level 2 and 3 certifications, thus we have created this program for those who wish to teach Level 1 classes, privates and workshops while on the road to becoming a fully Certified Movement Flow Instructor.

‎

•Level 2
This is definitely a level up meaning you need a strong movement practice with the combination of completing Level 1. This will be a physically demanding course that will test your edges but like anything in life the greater the challenge the greater the reward.

‎

•Level 3
Want to be a Movement Flow Teacher? Is Movement something you want to share? Are you passionate about spreading Education? Then Level 3 might be for you. (Level 1-2 are a prerequisite)
