Episode 71: Katy Bowman - Are You Walking Wrong?

Walking is one of the most fundamental things that human beings do. Walking on two legs is what makes us human beings. What if we're all doing it wrong? That's right. The simplest thing, walking, are we doing it wrong? We're going to find out about that and much, much more on today's episode of The MOVEMENT Movement podcast. My guest today is Katy Bowman, an internationally recognized biomechanist, author, and science communicator. Katy has both the skill and passion for reintroducing movement into people's everyday lives. With her bestselling books, award-winning podcast (with more than 3 million downloads!) and classes both in person and online, she reaches hundreds of thousands of people every month. She regularly travels the globe to lead workshops and retreats, and is frequently featured on TV shows like NBC's Today Show and in publications such as Prevention and Good Housekeeping. Katy directs and teaches at the Nutritious Movement Center Northwest in Washington state, consults on research and on movement-rich community and educational space design, and spends as much time as possible moving outside with her husband and children. If you have questions for me about the show, please email me, Steven Sashen, at [email protected], or visit the website at www.jointhemovementmovement.com, and find what's going on, be part of the family of helping people discover and rediscover that natural movement is the obvious better healthy choice, just like natural food is...
