Founder Deb Voisin has always been a movement nerd—long before she ever became a coach. After years of sitting in lotus to read as a kid, she entered middle school unable to walk a mile without resting! Or ice skate without crawling. Those early injuries, rooted in hypermobility and poor mechanics, sparked a decades-long obsession with understanding how the human body is designed to move—and what happens when we don’t.
Over the past 30 years, Deb has studied and taught an unusually wide range of ancestral, rhythmic, and spiraling biomechanics systems, including West African Dance, Contact Improvisation, Capoeira, Chung Moo Doe, multiple yoga lineages, the Gokhale Method, Ido Portal–inspired movement, Functional Patterns, PRI, Balance, and GOATA. That deep exploration eventually led her to Primal Movement, where she rebuilt her own gait, avoided hip surgery, and discovered the joy of sprinting for the first time at age 57.
Her approach bridges science-driven movement education with long-term durability. Deb helps clients understand the “why” behind natural mechanics so they can build lifelong resilience—stronger joints, smarter alignment, better breathing, and a body that ages in the direction of ease instead of injury.
Whether you’re new to movement, returning from pain, or seeking longevity at a high level, Deb’s mission is to help you reconnect to your body’s natural design and reclaim your birthright to move powerfully, pain-free, and with confidence at any age.

Vern Gambetta, The Father of Functional Fitnes and arguably the world's most famous professional sports trainer, called the book: "OUTSTANDING. Very clear explanations and great graphics. Going to recommend for the coaches I work with!"
AFRICAN DANCE EXPERIENCE: Deb's has intensely trained in many forms of African Dance because these dances represent ancestral, natural movement forms. She has travelled to West Africa three times for intensive drum and dance study. She has also taught beginning classes for over 20 of those years and created performing collaborations and events with master Guinea drum and dance artists. She has also studied a variety of these dance forms weekly for many years including: Guinean, Senegalese, Malian, Beninese, Congolese, Afro-Haitian, Afro-Brazilian, and Afro-Cuban.
