We breathe 22,000 times a day and 90% of our brain's energy is used managing gravity!
Through simple yet innovative integrative movement and breathing practices we harness more energy by using bending twists, sprials,and gradual slopes that align us better to recycle gravity and align with nature.

We are designed to feel good and move for our entire lives! Tapping into this design is key to enjoying fluid and pain-free movement.
Every surface and system in our body is curvy, wavy, spiraling, or on the diagonal.
Getting past the damaging, flattened, cadaver view of the body opens a world of possibilities that invites full-bodied collaboration - which is much more sustainable, and enjoyable!
REDUCING PAIN AND INCREASING PERFORMANCE CAN BE SIMPLE
a lot of mainstream "health" info is wrong
Overstretching is dangerous! and sets you up for long-term joint instability!!
Some yoga, stretching, dance, and fitness practices demand that the body move in unnatural, damaging ways that violate our design. And few aspire to regain the resilience of our ancestors that could easily run long distances.
Moving As Designed helps us adapt out of injury and sedentary lifestyles and into the blueprint of effortless, springy movement we had as children. Pain-free athleticism is the fountain of youth!
Moving As Designed classes focus on movement principles based on anatomy, physics, contexts, and our unique bodies
Deb Voisin started this in part because her worst injuries were FROM OVERSTRETCHING when she taught yoga 15X/week! And because she was able to fully recover from disabling hip and knee injuries without surgery by working with simple organically aligned movement.
IT WORKS!
Even within only one or two sessoins, clients with chronic joint pain tend to experience noticeable improvements! Even if we are meeting remotely!
Listen for yourself as a happy student reported the movement freedom, security, and pain relief he found by making small changes to his everyday movement!
IT WORKS!!
"I. met my goal to get to the ground pain-free within our 4 sessions. What's so different about Moving As Designed is that it's SO EFFICIENT."
Somatic Movement Teacher
"Deb's enthusiasm to life and movement is truly contagious. Her focus on how we are designed to move is refreshing. Many of us have lost this as society shapes us into breathing, posturing and moving in certain “accepted” ways. Ways that can cause tension, pain, and even injury. Deb unfolds movement in its natural way. It’s eye-opening how much stronger we become by just using our body in the way it was designed. It’s quite liberating to swagger down the street and know this is actually the way. Thanks Deb!!!
Pia Paakkonen, Physial Therapist
""Deb made a fantastic presentation to my group of 40 seniors who ranged from very limited mobility to physically active. Everyone received valuable information about how to adapt and use their bodies by moving in beneficial ways; plus they all loved Deb’s enthusiasm and passion!."
Chris Greenwood
Senior program coordinator
"Deb is a master of biomechanics. Her depth on the topic and her joy in teaching it is infectious. If you want to learn how your body was meant to move and how to do so to avoid injury - then this class is a MUST!"
Ron Miller,
high-tech Business Development consultant
"I can feel changes in my reactions even with these few sessions. For example, I was reaching for something the other day, and I noticed that instead of just reaching a little farther, my knees bent and I engaged more of my body to help me reach out. It's only been a week since our last class, but I miss our meetings already!"
Katherine Bell,
dream interpreter and former astrophysicist
"By implementing small changes based on what I learned from the book and 3 of Deb's small group lessons, the shoulder pain that I had had for the past few years due to years of playing sports and not learning to move intentionally has greatly diminished!"

Myofascial release therapist
MY NEW PODCAST IS OUT ON SPOTIFY AND YOUTUBE AND APPLE PODCASTS

We explore both inner and outer systems, structures, and knowledge that we can thoughtfully use to design a sustainable and enjoyable lifestyle. Topics range from primal movement and breath to architecture, dreams, ancestral nutrition, and sacred sounds.
Deb Voisin is the host and interviews experts in their fields who experienced breakthroughs with unconventional techniques and have a history of helping others do the same.
