About the Workshop: 

Learn the fundamental patterns to enhance your practice with the rope and unleash your athletic potential.

The Martial Intent workshop will uncover patterns that correlate with your martial arts movement. Each pattern explored plays an important role in assisting the body to move and function by unlocking the thoracic spine, allowing fluid movement throughout the trunk. Providing a greater range of motion through the shoulder and rotator cuffs as well as allowing the elbows and wrists to function to their fullest degree.

The rope is a great tool to add to your workouts, meditation, or even warm-ups or cool-downs. Join in and kickstart your journey to better movement in daily life and learn the beautiful Art of Flow while learning how to move the body with the Rope.

Following the rope workshop we will dive into some breathwork, uncovering and building better breathing habits to equip you with breathing patterns to allow you to perform at an optimal level. We will then expose the mind and body to cold water exposure in the ice tubs.

What to bring:

- comfortable clothing as you will be moving the body - During the workshop you will be barefoot.

- water

- swimwear

- towel

- warrior attitude and a killer smile

About the facilitators: 

Ben Watson

With a career as a Pro MMA 8-2 and wanting to explore my capabilities as a fighter, enhancing my recovery and optimisation of my sport, it led me on the path to search for modalities and ways I could improve in my movement ability and performance. I am a qualified Weck Method specialist, where the rope was cultivated from.  I have been fortunate to train under many great minds and movement coaches that have expanded my training for which I am blessed to pass on to others, in hopes to change the way we look at movement for optimisation and recovery. 

I've expanded my own knowledge in the breath community and have trained under Patrick McKeown Oxygen Advantage and Apnea Survival with Jason Rice. 

Huon Feitscher
