Recoil In Action: The Foundation of Body Resilience

Why mechanical thinking breaks movement, and how Recoil restores adaptability, resilience, and real-world function in the body.After such a great reaction to their recent episode about Rebound, Joanne and Paul return with the second instalment in this mini-series exploring the Five R’s of myofascial motion, again sharing exclusive demonstration videos from inside their practitioner training!So you may prefer to hop on over to the Joanne Avison YouTube channel to watch this one 📺 (Although if you'd prefer to listen you'll still get plenty of goodness here.)This time they explore Recoil as a foundational principle for building true body resilience. Moving beyond the idea of the body as a system of levers, they show why traditional, position-based training often fails once movement leaves the controlled environment of the studio.Using practical demonstrations from the Myofascial Magic training programme, they reveal how the body actually organises itself through instability, variability, and counter-rotation.You’ll see how recoil underpins natural gait, how narrow and unstable positions develop deeper coordination, and why strength alone doesn’t guarantee efficient movement. This is a shift from controlling the body to working with its inherent intelligence.This episode is especially relevant for movement teachers and manual therapists looking to bridge the gap between controlled training and real-world application, and to deepen their understanding of fascia-focused, adaptive movement.🌟  If you’d like to learn more about the Myofascial Magic In Action programme, or book a relaxed, no-pressure chat with Joanne or Paul, visit: https://www.myofascialmagic.com/mmia-programme-infoSIGN UP TO THE JOANNE AVISON NEWSLETTERSimply scroll down to ‘Stay Connected’ and pop in your details.
