Testimonial: Jumping For The First Time In Years!

"Darryl: My self concept about my fitness was altered. Because of you. Inclusivity is one of my deepest held values and always was; way before my body was affected with this dis-ease. I can see that you bring that to your work and I deeply appreciate that."

This was one of the highlights of my time at Paleo f(x) - during my Primal Play session helping Steph focus on what she could do, not on what she couldn't. Watching her jump was an incredible moment and I am happy I left no one behind. Steph has multiple sclerosis (MS).

It's amazing how much we take for granted, falsely idolising those who have 'amazing' movement skills which can lead to underestimating and not appreciating what we ourselves can do.

I love what I do and I hope to spread the "joy of movement" (that we should all experience) to as many people as possible. Thanks for listening.
