Hypermobility and EDS in circus training, with Jessie Raard | #15

I spoke to Jessie Rard about his unique journey from a self-taught semi-professional circus artist to coach, as they navigated health challenges like long COVID and hypermobility. We discuss the importance of strength training for hypermobile individuals, the complexities of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, and the intersection of neurodiversity with hypermobility. We also chat about the Venn diagram of hypermobile, trans and neurodivergent people (which often seems like one big circle...)References:Prevalence of Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome in Transgender and Gender Diverse Individuals: A Retrospective Cohort Study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40986523/SARS-CoV-2 or Vaccinal Spike Protein can Induce Mast Cell ActivationSyndrome (MCAS):https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38693735/Find Jessie on Instagram: @twistedfoxtrainingFind Pennie on Instagram: @superpennie Train with Pennie: ⁠https://tinyurl.com/StrongHabitsAp⁠Discount Code: YOUTUBE25
