About Patrick

I have been working with my body across a variety of different disciplines and circumstances since childhood.

I did various competitive sports throughout my life with a focus on body conditioning and nutrition.

I have dedicated 4 decades to physical training/education, nutrition, martial arts, yoga, meditation, and other contemplative practices, and I'm the founder of the Baseworks Method.

In 2003, I also founded a movement studio in Tokyo, Japan. The studio served the community in Asia with over 30,000 classes to a collective attendance of 500,000 students. From the start of Covid in the spring of 2020, the studio suspended all daily in-person public teaching and transitioned to a hybrid in-person/virtual/online education model.

I am a teacher, teacher trainer, and personal trainer. I have a personal record of educating over 10,000 students across 30,000 hours in 15 countries since the 90s.

I've trained a wide scope of students ranging from those completely new to any kind of physical training to professional athletes & dancers, health wellness & fitness sector instructors, health care professionals, and medical doctors.

I LOVE teaching and aspire to make my unique expertise and skillset accessible to as many interested people as possible.

I am currently based between Canada, Europe, and Asia and serve long-time students and clients in person and virtually on 6 continents.

As an extension of the Cognitive intelligence (IQ) vs Emotional intelligence (EQ) framework, the method I teach differentiates the so-called Physical intelligence (PQ) (a concept different from Gardner's Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence).

Physical intelligence is the ability to intuitively understand the body (one’s own and the bodies of other people) – read the sensory signals, know how to engage the muscles, intuitively understand the biomechanics, effortlessly maintain good posture and learn new movement skills.

A person with low PQ may be described as uncoordinated, or “disembodied”, or having a “low body awareness”, often does not feel 100% comfortable and satisfied with their body, and struggles in popular exercise/movement classes (which often demotivates the person from continuing).

Based on my athletic, teaching, and other experience, I developed the Baseworks Method, a holistic movement practice designed to uniquely address the PQ (Physical intelligence).

The method is based on making anyone aware of the physical, psychological, sensory, and cognitive limitations unique to each individual and guiding them through a step-by-step process of working around these limitations. The method works through interrupting unconscious motor programs, redefining the movement task goals. Basically, it makes you aware of what your brain unconsciously tells your muscles to do.

The lessons I offer may have a different focus depending on your background and needs.

For beginners:

You will be able to:

- Develop strength, flexibility, and mobility.
- Learn to control the muscles based on understanding neuromuscular mechanisms that facilitate comfortable painless stretching that leads to quicker gains in flexibility.
- Develop balance and dexterity.
- Develop sensory awareness – being able to sense the body in a higher resolution.
- Learn to understand your personal condition and limitations
Learn to better understand how to use your body so it will be easier to learn any movement skill.
- Gain an intuitive understanding of the imbalances in your body, which will help to improve your posture, gait, and running, and relieve some chronic pain.
- Gain a better understanding of when to push and when to rest – an invaluable skill to read your stress/fatigue level that tremendously improves the quality of life and productivity.
- Improve attention, visuospatial reasoning, and concentration.
- Increase self-esteem.
- Improve emotional regulation, sleep
and more.

(See the video of some of our long-time students in Tokyo talking about their experience at the bottom of the description)

For movement professionals:

If you are an athlete/dancer/martial artist/experienced yoga practitioner/etc, or you are teaching any movement modality, you could:

- Make use of a holistic conditioning movement practice that addresses the entire body.
- Improve explicit understanding of the body (movement professionals may be skilled in movement without explicit awareness).
- Address types of training that you are missing in your native discipline.
- Pick up some tips you could use in your teaching practice.

For doctors/physiotherapists/healthcare practitioners:

You could learn a new approach to empower your clients to approach exercise, regain mobility, and become healthier physically and psychologically.

The sessions can be one-on-one or in small groups (generally, no more than 6 people).

The sessions are open to anyone at any level of fitness, including the aging population and those with chronic injuries/recovering from an acute injury.
