“As a Tae Kwon Do and RKC Kettlebell instructor, the FMS has help me personally improve my ability to properly perform techniques as well as improving my clients. In the past I was stumped and frustrated by those clients that seemed uncoachable when it
came to improving certain movements or techniques. The FMS has given me the insight to recognize bad movement patterns and the tools to objectively rank and improve movement quality. Knowing the 'why,' 'when' and 'how' of incorporating correctives and increasingly
difficult exercise progressions into my private and group sessions has produced pain-free, efficient athletes with beautiful movement regardless of the activity. Thanks to the FMS system, I have been able to improve the performance of 'difficult' clients even
when other more credentialed professionals could not.”John Scott Stevens - RKC, CK-FMS Omaha Elite Tae Kwon Do / Omaha Elite Kettlebell
