Thank you Laurel and Sarah for your excellent podcast! I especially appreciate your depth of research that helps keep me up to date. You’re educating, inspiring and entertaining me. I’m so grateful and enjoy sharing episodes with other teacher friends.

I am so grateful to have found this show! I am a massage therapist and movement coach and this show has benefitted me, my practice and clients in endless ways!

I don’t always agree with you (mostly I do) but you always make me think and use research to support your opinions. Thank you. However, I sometimes feel minimized by your comments about older women. I’m not sure what exactly irritates me. I’m 67 years old and started weight training at 17 and have been pretty consistent throughout my life. While you’re working to expand the number and share great information, we, older women who strength train, are here. And have been for a long time.

I really wanted to like this podcast, but the hosts spend so much time tearing down others and what they think other instructors or professionals are doing “wrong” that by the end, I still can’t tell what I should be doing or how to think about things differently (with one exception: they make it very clear you should take their bone class, which I don’t begrudge them the hustle, but still). I’m all for “myth busting” but there’s very little left by the time they finish letting you know how bad (dumb) other peoples’ advice is.

I found your podcast through your guest episode on Conspirituality and I am so grateful! As an aerial arts coach and personal trainer I am always looking for ways to continue learning and better meet my clients needs, and as you know it can be so hard to find sources of well researched, evidence based information presented in ways that are digestible and still full of personality. Very excited to have found you and looking forward to catching up on all this amazing material! Thank you!

Every time I listen I learn valuable information. And I laugh. It’s an amazing experience! Keep sharing your research based knowledge and movement optimism!

I’m new to this podcast and I’ve been listening to recent episodes. I just listened to this podcast on the McGill interview. What a wonderful dissection of this so-called program to reduce back pain! I had terrible back pain for a while and tried all the things, including McGill. Oh the fear! The bracing! If I still had pain it was clearly my fault for not bracing enough! Ugh. And I gave it a full year of serious effort. No significant change to the pain. Happily I have now been pain free for many years due to understanding the neuroscience of pain and the biopsychosocial model of pain. And I move! I dance! I lift! Thank you both for your excellent work.

I’m a Pilates teacher (20 years) and someone that has spent some time in physical therapy (broken ankle, hip replacement, and broken knee). I loved Episode 69 with Adam Meakins! I was a bit worried that I was going to be bummed out about the efficacy of physical therapy and all the money I have spent going to my PT. But as I was listening, I realized that I love my PT and he seems to be in line with what was discussed on the show. He started out clinician-driven care, since I was injured and scared and nervous about movement. As I got stronger and more confident, he let me drive our sessions regarding what our movement focus was going to be for the session and how hard I was going to work. As a Pilates teacher I had lots of my clients ask me why I wasn’t just doing my own “rehab”, but I was honest with them and told them that I will ALWAYS work harder for someone else who is watching than for myself. That’s why I go. Thanks for this interview, I continue to learn about my own philosophies of movement and grow my confidence as a teacher.

Loved, loved, loved this episode!! Actually love ALL your episodes! As a teacher of movement for over 27 years, I’m beyond thrilled with where I am as a teacher. I’ve learned so much from you both and your guests and I love the new connections I’m making through your guests. Keep doing what your doing! Thank you so much for all you do!

I listened to the recent podcast series and found absolutely ZERO diet motivation. Instead,now I want to spend hundreds of dollars on heavy equipment that will build bone density instead of getting a treadmill and a new couch for the livingroom Laurel and Sarah are smart, funny and engaging to the point that I just believe whatever they say. I suspect there are persuasion tactics woven into their well researched science. Absolutely do not recommend if you’re looking for motivation to lose weight for the beach this summer.

I’ve been a Pilates trainer for over 13 years and worked with a lot of different types of bodies. Being a movement teacher has been rewarding but the industry itself is overwhelmingly toxic and full of misinformation. Listening to you two discuss your experiences and opinions (as well as present your research and study) is breathing new life into my work! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I have found my people!

I love the depth of research Sarah and Laurel put into every single podcast. All of them are thought provoking, and I love anything that makes me question and think. Personally, I love the humorous banter as well….makes me wish I could sit and have a cup of tea, and a serious geek session with them. Thanks so much for all your time and effort.

Not sure where to start but I’m over the moon with your mission and overall approach to the “movement teachers” and how we should look at the industry today. I have so many questions but mostly I owe you a huge thank you for putting such time and energy into these podcasts that have validated many of my recent concerns and thoughts. I’m new to podcasts and haven’t been impressed until coming across your information. I look forward to hearing more. Happy holidays and thank you again 🏋️‍♀️

As a long time yoga teacher and a slow progressing weight training devotee I am happy to share that your podcast has become part of my strength training journey. I have been so lucky to lift in a gym with Trina Altman as my coach and when I hit the treadmill after my sesh I listen to your podcast. It's been a great pairing of education and entertainment. Thank you, ladies 💕💕

I can’t recommend this podcast enough!! Sarah and Laurel have done a phenomenal job educating movers and movement teachers in EVERY SINGLE EPISODE! They are clear, concise, and always cite the most up to date evidence and research. If you are tired of being bombarded with movement myths and outdated information because of what is being marketed and sold, then this podcast is for you! Thank you Laurel and Sarah for always going above and beyond in every Movement Logic episode!

I am not a yoga teacher, but I’ve been doing yoga for about 20 years now. There have been any number of occasions where yoga teachers would give me alignment cues that I didn’t understand or different teachers would give me cues that seem to be opposite of each other. When I would ask them questions, they couldn’t really tell me why they would tell me to do things a particular way. This podcast is amazing. It doesn’t answer every question I’ve ever had, but now I feel like I can think critically about what I’m doing and why I’m doing it. I also feel much more confident either taking a cue or leaving it. Laurel and Sara also make all of the science related to movement and exercise so much less intimidating, and more approachable and understandable. Thanks for everything you do.

I’m 5/6 minutes into the podcast and it’s just boring back and forth non-relevant information. I prefer to the point, relevant information in an information-overloaded world. Please, just get to the points. I would like to add to my original review: they are funny, and give very good information, once they get into the subject matter.

But Sarah and Laurel sure are doing a good job.

Smart, thoughtful, and humorous! I’m learning a lot! Thanks Sarah and Laurel!

Thank you for being such vigorous advocates of lifting heavy, and offering a roadmap for a setup with the barbell equipment guide. Your episodes on verbal cues are standout, as are the episodes on shoulder/pelvis alignment cues and intention.

Any podcast that can simultaneously entertain me and educate me is always going to be at the top of my playlist. The Movement Logic podcast is always in my rotation for these reasons! Laurel and Sarah are a wealth of knowledge in their respective fields who are excellent communicators. They have a knack for distilling complex concepts down to easy-to-digest bites. They are objective, authentic, creative, and sometimes more than a little spicy. There is never an episode where I'm not laughing out loud at least once - but it's usually more than once. If you haven't listened to their Oopsies Stories, press play ASAP. Thank you both for all of your hard work and dedication to science-based tools for movement enthusiasts. I appreciate you, and I look forward to learning and laughing with you in the future.

I loved the episode on the 3 x 10 rule. Breaking down all those R acronyms really helped me figure out a routine that will work for me with the least amount of mental stress, which for me can increase my pain levels. Excited to see how this more qualitative protocol of RPE-based movement affects my long-term hip pain and maintenance of strength!

I have loved listening - I feel like I have found my tribe with them. Their cutting edge, research-based info really speaks to me and has helped unravel false information that I have heard through the years. Here’s an idea for an episode: can we talk about how there is a pretty open aversion for some teachers regarding the term “bracing” - needed in lifting loads but some movement systems talk about it as if it’s a horrible thing. What do they think it means and is the way they are teaching “abdominals” sound? And does this connect at all to the dance world, where many movements teachers come from? I also wonder about the negative influence of perhaps old-school dance ideas infiltrating movement teaching, like Pilates, that have lead to lots of misinformation, a glorification of hyper mobility, and body shaming including the “long and lean” idea perpetuated in female-oriented exercises studios.

As a teacher of many years, I only listen to people who know their stuff. The Movement Logic team is that and then some. Clarity and often hilarity found in each episode. If y’all do make those t-shirts, I want them to give as my parting gift in my YTt’s.

Leaving a review because I love Trixie and Katya, too! Leaving a five star review because I appreciate all the informative, thought provoking content you share on the pod. Thanks for helping me learn and question things as I go!

Yoga teacher and Health & Wellness Coach here who is LOVING your podcast. Thank you for the excellent information, accessible approach, and good jokes. Please keep the great content coming! Looking forward to your 2023 content.

Listening to these podcasts have challenged me to be a more thoughtful teacher. They help me be a better questioner about things I have been told over and over in my yoga training. Thank you.

Thank you Laurel and Sarah for shedding light, humor, and curiosity on so many important topics in the movement nerd multiverse. 🤓 I appreciate the evidence based and inquiry rich approach. Laurel’s SI joint episode gets a BIG YES from me. As a former yoga teacher, now physical therapist, I can totally relate to Laurel’s story. I found myself nodding my head through the whole listen. Five stars. Highly recommend.

I love the way that Laurel and Sarah choose a topic each week and dive deeply into it. They aren’t afraid to change their thoughts and opinions based on the research that they come across.In the process, their humility and honesty make them much more truthful than all of the Talking Heads who pontificate that they “know everything,” and “have all the answers.” The movement world, and the world in general, need much more of this genuine and truthful approach to understanding.

An awesome resource for any kind of movement teacher. Or person who’s interested in maximizing benefits from their movement. To the point, coherent. They don’t meander off topic and it’s digestible.

Although I am not a teacher , I fall into the category of a mindful movement person- needing to approach movement in a cerebral manner-questions galore on details. I thoroughly enjoyed and found this podcast so relevant , very focused and no fluff. Congratulations on your debut!

These women stand for all that is right in movement. I love learning from them! You will too!!
