Connecting People with Movement, Past to Present

At Primal Connect, we believe that moving well is essential for achieving daily duties, eliminating pain and injuries, and leading a functional life. In our modern world, we have adopted bad habits that affect the way we perform daily tasks, rest, and play. Our exercise programming and consistency can positively impact all aspects of our lives, creating a functional body capable of reaching our full potential.

Our Journey

I am Joe, the founder of Primal Connect, and I am 47 years young. My past years have been a journey of learning the basics of karate, Muay Thai, and resistance training. However, I learned that compromising technique can lead to a dysfunctional nervous system, setting wrong movement patterns in the body, creating muscle imbalances, and eventually leading to injuries. This was me, and it broke me time and time again. Despite the setbacks, I never gave up and constantly tried new things, eventually finding the answers I was looking for. This is what I am about, and this is my journey. We are all unique, and the majority of people will have problems in the way they move and go about their daily activities. Regular exercise, correcting muscle imbalances, proper movement patterns, eating well, and bringing back the fun into our adult lives like when we were kids can lead to balance and connect us to our primal selves.
