About
Don Carmichael
I'm still taking to the 'title'- the conscious core strength guy given me by a local blogger and farmer, thanks Jim. My goal online is to share my holistic Kinesiology work with clients via classes, and movement coaching opportunities through fun and gentle guidance and respectful dialogue. My wish is that we all 'practice' becoming more naturally 'home centered' and feel more empowered to be self responsible for and to reawaken the skills and means to feel embodied, aligned, core strong and once again on the path to flourishing health and wellness.
My interest in movement began early on while walking and cycling the streets of Winnipeg and hiking the wilds of the boreal forest around West Hawk Lake and learning to ski at Falcon Lake in Manitoba. While working as a design engineer I discovered yoga and meditation and started discovering the wilds within. The wilderness within morphed into a love of moutaineering, free of the constraints of working the land and livestock. I was drawn to continue the study of human engineering via an applied exercise and physiology approach (Kinesiology) focused on ergonomics, the interface and healthy interaction of people and work surfaces/tools/equipment... Lately, my healthy living interests have evolved to more towards an evolutionary or paleo principled approach to being bodysmart, more based on the paleo template which feels healing, strengthening and well...right. Though I did spend a lot of years (decades) as a vegetarian yogi guy; ) |
