Welcome! Thanks for joining the 4th episode of The Physical Being. Today we have our guest Shannon Breen, the founder of Aequus Movement, a gym and wellness hub in Canberra. If you get the chance to pop in to Aequus I highly recommend it. It’s a gorgeous facility and has a great sauna and pool too.
In this episode Shannon and I talk about holistic health practices and how a proper approach to training is a very important aspect of life, and more importantly one key to getting out of pain. We talk about how Shannon got to where she is today, what practices she learned along the way and how those experiences have shaped the way that she trains clients today.
Thank you Shannon for sitting down with me to do this podcast and now a little bit about Shannon.
Shannon’s unique approach to training and movement has been strongly shaped by her own experiences within high-level sport, rehabbing her own injuries and her experiences with clients over the last 10 years. The challenges these experiences provided are what drove Shannon’s passion for healing and strengthening the body. Her holistic approach to training acknowledges that everything within the body and the person is connected. Shannon has formed a necessary extremely high attention to detail in movement observation, anatomy and understanding the impact of life outside the gym. Most importantly, she has developed sensory acuity in receiving the body’s feedback. Shannon works with the individual and uses this feedback to map out a case by case plan of action. She is passionate about assisting people as they move closer to strength, balance and awareness within their body. The goal; optimisation for each individual through achieving a state of balance, in the body and in life.
