Hi, I’m Anthony. Anatomy in Motion taught me how to work ‘with’ my body and not against it.
I am a Physical Therapist, Personal Trainer and Curious Human. I got into the field of bodywork to find answers for my own physical challenges. I loved being active and playing sports (LOTS of it), however, I had issues with my knees. It reached the point where by the age of 12, I was unable to kneel down! Eventually my knees were so bad that I had to stop playing sports and despite the reduction in my activity, I still ended up having 3 surgeries to my knee (by the age of 20) of which one was an ACL reconstruction. As the frustration built up, I decided that I needed to do something differently! That came in the form of upskilling myself! Things began to improve! I even found a new activity that didn’t involve my knees!! HANDSTANDS!! After many years of study and research I came across Gary Ward and Anatomy in Motion (AiM). I attended my first AiM course in 2015 and have been immersed in the work ever since.
2015, day one of my first AiM course, I knew I’d found the answers I was searching for; I remember the moment; Chris Sritharan was taking us through one of his “check in’s”, (a self assessment of our own anatomy). I realised right then that I had been trying to force my body to change for over a decade and had never really paid attention to what was actually happening!
This self assessment process helped me to feel and experience anatomical movement on a completely different level. Along with the Flow Motion Model, I had a map and a way to interact with my body to begin solving my problems. And that’s exactly what I did! I have honed these skills through thousands of hours of study and continued self assessment and want to pass this on to anyone who engages in the AiM process.
Today My work is specifically focused around the teachings and philosophy of AiM. My time is split teaching AiM workshops, mentoring fellow students, and working online and in person with clients.
The teachings from Gary Ward & Chris Sritharan inspired me to engage in a process of Mastery; putting the Flow Motion Model into my body; day after day, and to feel and experience my anatomy. I know now, to truly experience the work of AiM, it needs to be felt and experienced in the body. I think this is a skill and a process that anyone can learn and develop over time. Sharing my experience, I hope to inspire you on a journey of self discovery too.
