 Hey everybody, I'm Lance Goyke and I want to welcome you to the Movement Seminar. Over the last 10 years as a personal trainer and strength coach, I've spent a lot of energy refining my system for evaluating movement. With the help of many books, mentors, and peers, I can comfortably say that I feel competent coaching literally anybody's movement. But I know that not everyone feels the same. A few years ago, I moved across the United States to the West Coast of California. I picked up a job coaching at Google headquarters and met a handful of really smart young coaches. They each had a few years of experience under their belt and they were loved by their clients. But they were all frustrated by nagging mobility issues. Why does my client's shoulder hurt when we do push-ups? Why can't I keep my posture during my overhead squats? How can I train a hinge pattern if my client always has back pain? When I worked with each and every one of these issues before, the answers were clear to me. But I have had different experiences than these other great coaches. And since I like to over-engineer solutions, this course was born. The Movement Seminar is a 30-day individual group project. Each member selects a movement problem they want to fix, and with the help of their classmates, they come up with a thorough solution. Every week, there are three assignments, each one building upon the previous. At the end of the week, you and your classmates will hop on a video call to discuss everyone's work, helping you fill any knowledge gaps and decide which details matter most. Is this overkill for a single movement? Yes, absolutely it is. But it's this level of detail that's required for you to feel comfortable coaching literally any problem. Once you fully understand the system we learned in the Movement Seminar, your future client with a shoulder-labeled tear, a fused ankle, and a transected glute max will be no big deal. Back when I was in Indiana, I had the opportunity to work with some of the smartest people I've ever met. Working together made us exponentially more effective than we would have been on our own. The Movement Seminar attempts to recreate that environment, putting you on a fast track to becoming an expert and building up your professional network. I'm really excited to see what you come up with. If you have any questions about the course, be sure to check out our FAQ page or send us a message through the contact form.
