Modern life has changed the way humans move.

  • We have become more disconnected from the natural environments and movement demands that once shaped us.

  • As our lifestyles shift away from the environments and movement demands humans evolved for, chronic pain and inefficient movement have become more common.

Functional Patterns takes a different approach.

  • Rather than training the body in isolation, we look at how humans are designed to interact with gravity and their environment.

  • The goal is to improve the body’s ability to adapt by restoring the movement patterns that have been fundamental to human function throughout our evolution.

THE HUMAN MOVEMENT BLUEPRINT

  • Every organism has biological characteristics that influence how it moves and functions.

  • For humans, Functional Patterns centers its training around four foundational movements.

Standing. Walking. Running. Throwing.

  • Known as the FP Big 4, these movements form the foundation of our training.

  • Developed through years of testing, observation, and refinement, we apply principles of biomechanics and physics to help your body move more efficiently within its environment.

  • Instead of simply building strength or fitness in isolated movements, we train the body as an integrated system

  • We train our clients by addressing posture, gait, muscular coordination, and movement mechanics together.

    We help your body move the way it was designed to move.

We take the guesswork out of taking care of your body.
