As Seen In
What’s your body capable of in nature?
Human beings evolved to move in nature daily. To skillfully run, jump, crawl, and climb through wild places with our closest companions, is hardwired into us. Yet we are disconnected from it now more than ever.
At EMP we know that reestablishing that deep connection to nature makes us healthier humans. But it also stokes our drive to transform our inner selves and to use what we can from our environment in a sustainable way. Together.
Our outdoor movement practice reconnects us with what it means to be human, with those things we forgot how to do, or maybe never experienced firsthand. Things like climbing trees and roughhousing with friends…
The fact is, we are already equipped to move like humans. We’re built with incredible bodies and brains and live in a natural world that we don’t have to fake a connection with — it’s inherent within all of us. Even if we’ve forgotten.
At Evolve Move Play, we empower you to move the way humans were meant to, with basic movements and functional training that will increase your fitness and help you unlock the inner power of your body in nature.
What makes us different from the mainstream fitness industry (i.e. the gym, yoga, spin, etc.) is that we believe that true fitness come from an embodied movement practice where you can consistently connect with yourself, nature, and other people.
