Effortless movement is at the heart of the human experience. However, over time we lose our natural movement potential and we become set in our body’s habitual patterns and dysfunctions. We become stuck in patterns that are inhibited, constrained and inefficient leading down a path to bodily decay. We can’t hike as far, move as fast, or play as long as we want to with our children or grandchildren.
I work with motivated clients who aspire to enhance their ability to connect, move and feel better in their body. The work is client centered and is focused on opening, lengthening, breathing, connecting and feeling whole again. This is done through the AIM process which stands for align, integrate and move.

Say Goodbye to Neck Pain
Do you want to say goodbye to your neck pain? If so, learning the two movement principles discussed in this video will be an excellent foundation. Most of us never received the owner’s manual for how our body works. We simply learned through trial and error until we got good enough.
However, over time most of us pick some bad habits, even those we think are doing us good. These seemingly tiny habits build up tension like a slow pressure cooker over time. Sometimes it takes decades before the stress and muscle tension becomes pain.
However, you can move more efficiently and gracefully by developing better skeletal support and improving how you move forces through your body. In addition, when you have better support, your muscles don’t have to work as hard! Save your energy for where it counts, playing the game of life, and don’t waste your energy on unnecessary tension at your desk.

Is Engaged Core Strength Important to Walk?
มุมมอง 2.8Kปีที่แล้ว
Walking is very complex! With over 206 bones, 600 muscles, and 360 joints (debatable depending on how you define a joint) there is a tremendous amount of complexity in human movement. There is no one size fits all approach. We each have uniquely shaped bodies, different-sized bones, and joints that are coordinated in their own particular way. We each learned to walk in our own unique way and ha...

Neck Pain! Get Relief by Moving From the Whole Spine
What if you got a pelvic tilt and your lower back is a bit over arched would it be beneficial to do it on snd off? I know you have to also so abb and general core strengthening and strech hip flexers but could it be an additional practice whilst yoi are in the process of developing that stability and strength in the core? I feel like it helps my lower back doesnt arch as much.
this is the best explanation of how to locate one's sit bones. You provided clear informative visual information. Thank you so much
Ok but how long and how many? 🤔
Lol how can i be so conscious about it when i am working 6 hrs
Left side of my back ,spasm and knots plzz help
p̶r̶o̶m̶o̶s̶m̶
【ｐｒｏｍｏｓｍ】 😆
Please keep producing these. So so grateful!
Thanks I always suffer from neck pain 💖
This was a great lesson. I chose to do it on the other side too lying on my right side. It was interesting to see the difference. rolling my chest to the left was way harder to do but of course with repeating it got easier. Thanks Joe for this freebie. I signed up for your class on freeing the arms and shoulders. I have a good setup in my office to do the class.
Hi Gordon, That is excellent that you worked with both sides. One of the great outcomes of the constraints within these lessons is the fact that it brings to light differences between the sides. This can lead you down an inquisitive path of discovering what parts of you are contributing to the difference? Is it how you contact the ground with the ribs? Maybe it's the timing and coordination of the movement, or that you've historically held more tension in one arm. I'm sure we'll discover more fun points to talk about in class :-)
3 days 3hr surf sessions. Wrecked my neck and shoulders. 30 minutes here with Joe and ready to go again tomorrow.
Love it! It always brings a smile to my face when I can help someone get back out in nature 🏄
Hi Joe - what do you think about a lumbar support pillow. I think they are helpful.
Hi Cynthia, There are many factors that go into how to best organize for sitting at a desk and lumbar support is one of many parts of the equation. It can be really helpful to have some tactile feedback such as a support pillow to keep you aware of your self-organization. I think if you've found something that works for you that is great! Keep using the lumbar support. The key is to still maintain your own skeletal support without the tendency to give up your own self-organization. And most importantly is taking breaks to move your body throughout the day.
simple yet useful approach to mindful walking pattern.
I cannot see the Demo with those words in the way. They cover the demonstration
Hi Mary, It may be a TH-cam ad popping up on the video in which case there is probably a little "x" box that you can click to remove the ad. There are no words that I added to the video. Otherwise, maybe you have the caption box checked which you can change in settings.
I sense that the connective tissues need to spiral from the heel to the big toe then as the weight shift is completed across the all of the toes to the fourth toe. So basically a mini inverersion to eversion on every step, at the same time being supported by the external hip rotators. Walking is so complex. I tried the process that you show for years but what developed was overemphasis towards the outside of the foot.
Helped neck and upper back feel better and more flexible.
My right foot is normal and left foot is overpronated and flat too . this combination is completely ruined my lower body like knock knees , uneven hips .pls suggest exercises to overcome this .
brought ease of tension and mobility
very good stretching could really feel the loosening
Is it important to sit back into the backrest or could you move forward to your back has no support? Regarding an office chair - thanks
lean back whenever you are tired..keep changing posture

What causes back stiffness in your day?
noticed more flexibility in my neck and greatly extended the point of resistance
Great video! Definitely noticed increased range after doing this. Going to practice these techniques throughout my day and see if can increase mobility...
Excellent!!! 🙌 Please check out the other videos I've posted to open up the neck. Variation is key so that your nervous system keeps getting new stimulus :-)
Another great lesson, I got at least 15 more degrees of easy rotation through my neck and felt like my neck and shoulder were much lighter and moved more easily afterwards. Thanks!
That's great Sarah! An increase is 15 degrees in 10 minutes of movement of easy movement! Great work :-)
Neck opened up right away. I was surprised about how much easier and more controlled movement felt after just 15 mins of easy work. It's pretty remarkable. I'll definitely keep "working up and through the spin" in mind throughout my day!
🙌 Great work! It is remarkable how these simple variations of movement can quickly release all that held tension in the extensor muscles of the neck and back.
Great way to relieve neck tightness and get you going in the morning! My partner and I did this video this morning and it was such a great way to start the day! The slow, gentle movements release all those little tight spots and niggles and help check in with your body. Highly recommend!
Wonderful! I would completely agree these lessons are a great way to start your day. Not only for your body, but also for creating a clear and present mindset!
Ding ding ding, we have a winner!👍🏻🥇 Ipsilateral, homolateral, reptilian= same side bisected locomotion. Contralateral, heterolateral, mammalian= opposing appendage locomotion. Both translate into bipedal locomotive sporting activities. Thank you very much, well done. I will brag about you 👏🏻
Love it Southernburrito! Glad you enjoyed and well done on all those insights 🙌🙌🙌
I could feel some relief in the hips, and ease of movement in neck.
Fantastic! That is why these integrative lessons are so effective. They involve your whole body and mind in the process.
Hi Joe, When I first lay on my back, I felt lower back pain. At the end of the session, lying on my back no longer hurt. That was a surprise.
Hi Cynthia! That is great! I think these movement sequences are great for freeing the back of unnecessary tension! Hopefully, we'll be able to return to some in-person classes later in 2021!
What changes do you feel after finishing this lesson?
These back exercises are so helpful! I've been doing these every day and my spine feels so much better.
Hi Tim, That is great! I've posted several new videos that I think you'll also find beneficial. Check them out!
Super helpful for integration. Thank you! Any ideas on stretches before and after walking when one has issues left to right with integration would be helpful.
Hi Jem, I'm thinking about creating an online walking series that would have lots of integrative movements to deal with imbalances in walking. I'll probably be posting some videos here in the future about this topic. Without being able to evaluate you it's pretty difficult to know what is going on with your case specifically. I'm happy to do an online session with you if that is something you're interested in. You can check out my website at www.JoeKellyAIM.com One movement exercise that I use for balance in standing is the "standing bird dog" but there are many other movements that could be more targeted depending on what's going on for you.
Can't find day 5-7.

HI Joe, It nice to have these when I am not in Seattle. Great neck help!!!
Hi Janet, It's so great to hear from you! I'm glad you've been enjoying the videos and I hope to see you next time you're back in Seattle.
Very useful tip. Thank you!
You're welcome Joone Anamhrinn! I hope this helps you with your golf game!
Thanks for this great morning mindset video. Looking forward to practicing it.
Hi Annabelle, Thanks for checking them out. I hope you find them informative. Keep me posted on your progress.
Excellent description, Joe.
You're welcome Cynthia!
Hi Joe, Over the past few years I've found it harder for me to ride a bike for more than 2 hours. The pain is ischial tuberosity to tissue (I think). Any thoughts on how to minimize this discomfort - I have tried and continue to try different bike seats. I'm thinking that building my glutes - adding more muscle tissue may help. Do you have any thoughts on how to minimize this discomfort?
Hi Cynthia, Thanks for your question. My first suggestion is to get a proper bike fit evaluation if you haven't already done so. There may be a way to reduce the amount of force going into your sit bones by adjusting your positioning on the bike. For example, maybe slightly adjusting the bike stem length could help. Next, I'm wondering how quickly you're ramping up to two-hour rides? It's common that cyclists ramp up training time, intensity, and volume too quickly for their soft tissue, or in this case, your sit bones to adequately adjust. I'd try taking some rest and then slowly building up to two-hour rides (general rule of thumb increase about 10% a week). If it's not a bike fit or bike seat issue this is most likely the challenge. There are many great options out there for bike seats and some women-specific seats as well so I'd check out some additional shops or forums and see what has worked for other women. I haven't been shopping for a bike seat in a long time so I'm not up to date on the latest and greatest. Hope this helps!
Thank you for these pearls. They are so helpful.
Glad you enjoyed Cynthia!
