Featured Pathway: Coaching That Moves U. Leaders: John Hinrichsen and Maryellen May. John and Maryellen are bringing coaching and physical movement together in a playful and meaningful way that encourages the mind/body connection.
We are excited to offer the CTI community the opportunity to experience a mind/body coaching experience like no other. Coaching That Moves U takes coaching to the next level, creating a way for our clients to shift both mentally and physically allowing for greater access to their creativity while feeling the benefits of cardio activity. We shift the definition of “fitness” from a competitive, rule based, ego-driven mindset to a softer, playful, creative state of self-awareness which incorporates”mindful movement”. Through the combination of movement and coaching, we help our clients create the behavioral change they have been working on owning in their lives while they benefit from a cardio workout. Coaching That Moves U also offers exciting, fun ways to introduce coaching to larger groups within various demographics opening up a new world to our community at CTI.
Our current definition of fitness reads more like “fitting-in”-ness as we struggle for perfect bodies through rigorous, monitored exercise regimes and diet plans that inevitably set us up for failure. In our workshop we shift this rigid view of exercise to one of ease and flow coming from a much more primal place- our core spirit. We introduce a more playful, spontaneous, natural way to view movement- more inclusive and fun loving. Exercise feeds our creativity and nurtures our soul as it aligns us with the cycle of life and nature. Coaching That Moves U playfully dives in as participants will partake in an Image Cycling experience which will allow them to feel the magic of this incredible process first hand.
Businesswise, leaders will open up to new ideas on how to introduce the concept of coaching. By combining movement with coaching we create platforms which offer unique mind/body experiences to businesses, schools, fitness centers and more. Participants’ minds will be racing with ideas on how to incorporate exercise and stretching into their coaching for the sake of creating healthier lives for their clients who live in a world where obesity levels are skyrocketing. Think of the possibilities we could create once we leap out into this untapped, ramped up, mind/body awareness place of coaching others…
