What is Functional Patterns?
From Functional Patterns themselves...."Functional Patterns is a training methodology that was founded in 2006 by CEO Naudi Aguilar. Naudi has conducted seminars globally certifying practitioners like us. We confidently say that Functional Patterns is the best in the fitness industry. Just look at the results achieved worldwide by Functional Patterns practitioners.
What are Functional Patterns?
Unlike any other point in human history, the main health crisis we face is the imbalance within our society and our disconnection from nature. Moving away from natural practices and shifting towards a more modern way of living has greatly affected our ability to move correctly and stay out of pain.
So, how can we achieve balance in a world filled with imbalance? The answer is straightforward: our health depends on how well we adapt to the natural environment. The more harmoniously we coexist with nature, the healthier and more resilient we become. For humans, this means bringing us back to the beneficial aspects of our evolutionary blueprint that made us healthy to begin with.
THE BLUEPRINT
There’s an evolutionary blueprint to how all organisms work and Functional Patterns has been cracking the code in human movement for nearly 15 years. Resulting from tens
of thousands of hours in testing, we have pioneered the FP methodology, syncing the physics of our natural environment to our health better than any other system out there.
Our conclusion has been to train humans according to their biological movement characteristics: Standing, Walking, Running, and Throwing — The “FP Big 4”. By optimizing these four human functions, achieving better health is not a gamble, but an inevitability. This is what it means to train Functional Patterns!
"We take the guesswork out of taking care of your body”
What to expect in a FP Session:
This is not mindless exercise. This application is to teach and rewire your bodies abilities no matter your history or age. It takes a lot of brain power for your body to do this. If you do not want to learn or take control of your body through movement for the rest of our life, this is not for you. As a colleague once said , "Functional Patterns isn't for the lazy, it's for the doers".
Come prepared
- ladies-in sport bra and shorts or form fitting shirt/tank top
- gentlemen- in shorts, form fitting tshirt or tank if you are uncomfortable shirtless
In FP training we believe in seeing as much as possible from your toes, your spine, your shoulder blades, and etc so minimalist clothing is preferred to optimize connections that need to be made during the training session. You will not be wearing shoes! The only time you might need shoes is if you are uncomfortable walking/running barefoot on a treadmill. Shoes tend to mold to your feet and posture. If your posture is off than your shoes will too, if your shoes ar off so will your posture, no matter what kind of "support" they claim to give. Your feet are your foundation and they need to be trained as well. Again we optimize everything we can see so shoes will effect what we're able to see in your body and gait analysis, therefore, we don't like them.
There may be times where I, your practitioner will also be in shorts and a sports bra. This is not to be unprofessional but so I can show you exactly what I'm looking for out of your body. Some people learn better by seeing it on someone else before applying it to themselves. If this make you uncomfortable in any way please speak up.
