Our Education Framework

  • LIFE SCIENCE & TRAINING

    Our educational content is based on the HOLISTIC SCIENCE FRAMEWORK, an interdisciplinary education framework linking life science and training, by using the underlying principle of human co-evolution with our habitat, our training physiology and diversity in cultures.

  • A HOLISTIC APPROACH

    Our approach to holistic training & education allows us help coaches and individuals in developing critical thinking, promote a cross-disciplinary, open-minded approach to performance and wellbeing education. It is NOT used to diagnose, treat or offer individual health advice.

  • TRAINING APPLICATIONS

    We use this knowledge and research to teach with a Holistic Training approach, a MIND-BODY-HABITAT

    practice that allows us to develop a deeper connection to our body's heritage, our culture and our communities through positive athlete-coach-environment feedback loop.
