For episode 10 we are joined by our fantastic guest from across the pond, Reza M, Co-Founder of the cognitive fitness company, Neural Movement!
After finishing his education in Physiotherapy, Reza went on to pursue his passion of incorporating neural technology with physical fitness by training children with autism and helping them increase their reaction times. Not long after, he met Co-Founder Ali and pairing together his business acumen with Reza's neuro-tech background, Neural Movement was created. Within a year of business, they have trained the likes of NFL's Trevor Williams, US Heavyweight Boxing champion Bryant Jennings and have been featured on ESPN and Fox Sports.
