Guest Blog Entry by Danielle Cook: A Memorable vacation

My family and I spent 5 days in Nebo, West Virginia attending a workshop called MovNat.  Prior to going, my friends and family would ask me where we were going this year on our family vacation.  When I told them, they were like “you are going where, and doing what?”  They thought we had lost [...]

Guest Post by Lori Crock: Winter Blues? Get Your MovNat On Indoors

When I left the 5-day West Virginia MovNat Reawakening workshop, I wondered how I would practice the the skills that had been ‘reawakened’ in me when I returned to the gym with my fitness coach back in Ohio.

MovNat Montreal: 2-day Workshop Reflections by David Salmon

“As an amoeba, it’s very difficult to hunt wild animals.   Try moving around with no limbs, using just your shoulder blades.   It took a long time for humans to develop to the point of being able to move well, like we can today.   Let’s review the process…”

This was the engaging introduction to MovNat given [...]

Guest post by Steve Gangemi: Endurance Oriented MovNat Training

Hunter-gatherers were constantly active, alternating hard physical days with less demanding days as often as they could.   Their routines were balanced, promoting strength, agility, and aerobic and anaerobic endurance, thereby ensuring that their health remained intact.   For the most part, their activity kept them strong and injury-free.   It’s most likely that the majority of hunter-gatherers [...]

Real-life testimonial: Nicky Sciolino

Two years ago I started feeling like a slug. I had always been very active, but I was getting sick of going to the gym and doing the same workouts every day.   Other than martial arts a few days a week, I felt like I needed a treadmill or a room full of weight [...]

MovNat Moves for Seniors, By Robert (Bob) McMillan

71 years old, playing more than ever

In September of 2009, at age 69, I attended the first MovNat “Reawakening” week at Summersville Lake, West Virginia.  Although in “decent” shape, I had a great number of misgivings, mostly about participating with younger attendees in an active and strenuous fitness regimen.  I had read an article [...]
