Where the hell is Erwan?

Long time no see folks!

To those who may have believed that I had decided to practice “Move Not” since my last post, well, in fact, you may want to know that the last 2 months have been absolutely crazy in pace and intensity.

If you haven’t heard from me for so long, it’s because I was preparing to move to the USA and then had been running 4 seminars in a row in West Virginia (more about it coming very soon).

I was so busy, there was no way I could take care of movnat.com in the meantime, not mentioning that West Virginia is really, really somewhat…different .

So right now I am in Boulder, Colorado, and have decided that it will be THE place where I will live!

I have truly fallen in love with the city, the community, and the spirit here. I am surrounded by many amateur or pro outdoors athletes, and I’m happy to become part of this local community. I have absolutely no doubt that I can have a very happy life here! It is the place I have been looking for… for years.

So, what’s next? What am I up to?

My top priority now is to find a training facility that I can structure to fit MovNat training. I want to see MovNat become grounded in a particular place, both by becoming

my new backyard!

part of a local community and secondly by creating a first local community of MovNat practitioners!

This place will also become the MovNat headquarters where I can hold training seminars and certification events in the future, and the facility itself will be a test-pilot business that will provide future certified trainers a good idea of what their own MovNat training facility could or should look like.

Secondly there’s going to be some work done on the website very soon to have it improve and evolve to some extent. For instance we are going to create a private forum that will be accessible by all participants of MovNat seminars or clinics, or by invitation only. So, it will be a rather confidential start, but in the process it will allow me to build an early online community that will be healthy, positive and constructive and made of individuals that have an actual experience of MovNat and will also truly know what MovNat is and isn’t. I believe this is an essential foundation before we can start to widen this community and welcome more people on our boards someday.

My third priority is to take time to further write my book. It is a big task and even though I am not starting from scratch since I have already produced a good deal of written material, it is still undoubtedly a hugely time-consuming job.
But it is fundamental in my eyes to establish and be able to provide a solid, in-depth conceptual manual to my specific approach of natural movement and to be able to make this work available on a wider scale. People interested in seriously learning about my philosophy as well as about the training method itself will find in that book a lot of content and answers, except if your dream is to achieve this kind of dream body .

Actively working on the points mentioned above means that at some point, I may be less available for clinics around the country despite the many requests from many different states for local events. It is important that I can settle somewhere at the moment, start with a local community and save time and energy to prepare the future certification events and also write my book. Because of that, I may not be able to travel for clinics around the country as much as I would like.

For now, I believe that the people that are really motivated and committed to learn and train MovNat (or getting certified) will not hesitate to visit me where I am. Hopefully those who cannot travel will be lucky to have a certified MovNat trainer in their own area in the near future, as the number of people that have sent their contact to me to get information about the certification program (again, starting 2010) is now nearing…1000 people. It is easy to understand why my top concern is actually not to train more practitioners, but to prepare the instruction of the little army of trainers that will teach the future practitioners in different corners of the country or the world, all on a professional basis. This way it will be possible for many more people in the long run to have access to MovNat training locally.

A little word about the certification, it will certainly not be a weekend instruction. I believe such a short duration would be just a joke, honestly. Getting certified in MovNat, even at level 1, will not be so hard but will certainly not necessarily be so easy and there is no guarantee to become certified just by attending a certification event. I want skilled, competent and inspiring coaches to represent and teach the Natural Movement Coaching System, which is MovNat and this does not happen in less than 48 hours.

I will probably email more information about the level 1 cert before the end of the year to everyone that have shown interest in that program. See the Certification Page for more information and to be put on the newsletter list for future announcements.

I have no doubt that MovNat will soon become an even more influential concept and also an increasingly strong and popular movement, based on local communities and dedicated practitioners and trainers. I am not rushing anything though, as I want to make sure everything will be built on a solid foundation and also because I am not the kind of person to compromise with my core values.

I am working very, very hard, and whoever has met me know how driven I am to accomplish what I call my “vision” and which I am willing to share with anyone who has a similar mindset and orientation. What just looks like a “niche” at the moment has the potential to spread like wildfire!

An impressive number of people have already expressed their will to support my action and become part of that movement. I want to express my sincere gratitude to everyone for that amazing support and all the good vibes that have been manifested so far and that keep on fueling my dedication and cheering me up everyday.

Sincerly yours,

Erwan Le Corre
