Welcome to the Massage for Healing and Power Class with Adam and Brendon Zettler

Adam is explaining the initial condition Brendon was at right after the aneurysm happened. Completely unable to move on his right side, lost most of the sensation on that side and unable to speak,

The habit of automatically breathing no matter what – creates the foundation of recovery.

In this class, we will explore and develop both freedom and control when it comes to knife work and knife survival. The goal is to develop maximum freedom and not lose control, while gaining enough control to maintain freedom of movement.

Tense up your arms as if you are holding weapons. Take a few steps and see wether you lose the control. Check if the tension of your arms interferes with your smooth walking.
