Movement science, cultural travel, and the real stories behind both.
I write about what 40 years of teaching bodies and one decade of leading international retreats have actually taught me, and I skip the fluff.
Whether you're here because your back hurts, because Morocco is calling, or because someone in class told you to check this out — welcome.

Your Body Is Your Best Travel Companion (Here’s How to Pack It Well)
Before you go anywhere — a two-week adventure abroad or a Saturday hike along the Patapsco — your body is already packed. It’s the one piece of luggage you can’t leave behind. And how well you’ve prepared it determines whether you’re surviving the experience or actually enjoying it.
I’ve been teaching movement for 40 years, and what I’ve noticed is that most people don’t think about physical preparation until something hurts. The lower back ache after a long flight. The knee that complains on the second mile of a trail. The hip that seizes up after a bike ride. These aren’t random failures — they’re signals that your body needed more support than it had.
