Functional Exercise
12 Week Foundational Program
realign and rebuild your body with an Osteopath & Functional Movement Specialist
Move beyond temporary fixes and learn how to build a stronger, more aligned body from the foundation up.
This 12-week program combines Curt's background as an Osteopath with personalized exercise and movement training to help you build strength and create a real change in your body.
This program is designed for people who want to commit to a process and actively participate in improving how their body moves. Real change requires consistency :)
2 sessions per week · 45 minutes each · 12 weeks
Traditional strength and conditioning programs often focus on strengthening individual muscles through exercises such as squats, bench presses, and other movements performed primarily within a single plane of motion.
Curt has a different perspective based on the way muscles work together throughout the body as integrated systems, particularly through interconnected muscular slings that contribute to the major movement patterns involved in walking, running, throwing, and everyday movement.
To create a real shift in your body, it's not always enough to simply make an individual muscle stronger. You also need to consider how your body is coordinating movement as a whole.
The way you walk, reach, rotate, carry things, and move through your daily life involves multiple areas of the body working together simultaneously. That's why Curt's approach focuses on building strength through integrated, functional movement patterns, rather than training muscles in isolation.
Many of the exercises you’ll learn involve coordinated movements between the opposite arm and leg, helping develop the cross-body connections your body naturally uses during activities like walking and running.
The goal is to help your body develop strength that translates beyond the exercise itself - into the way you move through everyday life. This is what ultimately creates a real and lasting change in your body.
A different approach to exercise
Hands-on treatment can be valuable for helping address restrictions and improving mobility. But if your body continues returning to the same movement patterns afterward, those improvements from a hands-on treatment may be difficult to maintain. This is often why the pain or tension always seems to return despite your best efforts.
Treatment can help create an opportunity for change - but movement is often what helps you learn how to use that change :) Through personalized functional exercise, the goal is to build on the improvements made during treatment by helping you become strong in new patterns of movement.
Treatment alone doesn't always change the pattern
The Details
The full program investment is $2160, with the option to pay in full or in three monthly instalments of $720. By committing to the full 12-week program, you receive a reduced per-session rate compared to booking individual sessions, while also benefiting from the consistency and progression of working toward your goals over time.
The program includes:
Two 45-minute functional exercise sessions per week for 12 weeks (a total of 24 sessions)
Personalized exercise and movement training.
Your sessions are tailored to your individual body, movement patterns, and goals.
Progressive guidance and support.
Each session builds on the foundation established in the previous sessions, allowing your program to evolve as your body adapts and progresses.
The 12-week Foundational Program is designed for those who want a structured and consistent approach to improving how their body moves.
However, we understand that everyone has different needs, goals, schedules, and levels of readiness :) Individual Functional Exercise Sessions are also available for those who prefer a more flexible approach and would like to book sessions at a frequency that suits them best. Whether you choose a structured program or individual sessions, we're here to support you in finding an approach that works for you.
How to get started
The first step is to book an Osteopathic Assessment with Curt. During your assessment, Curt will take the time to understand your concerns, assess how your body is moving, and discuss your goals.
From there, you can discuss the best approach for you. You may decide that the 12-Week Foundational Program is the right fit, or you may prefer to book individual sessions at a frequency that suits your needs.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach. Our goal is to support you in improving how your body moves in a way that feels appropriate and sustainable for you.
