Participant Comments from Flexible Steel, Feb. 20, 2016, NYC

“From a slow beginning and very basic stretching the class was getting more interesting and more progressive. Things I was doing prior do this workshop and as a SFG1 instructor thought I was doing right was not that right. My partner corrected it all and everything was done with a smile. My back felt fantastic my shoulders, back, ankles and progressive split stretches are worth the price of admission.
I truly recommend this special workshop It is a must for your future progression in your flexibility. Thank you.”

 

“Today’s user course was very educational. As a fitness professional I am always looking to expand my knowledge base of movement skills, either familiar to me or foreign.  Coming from a mobility background I found it incredibly helpful to find new ways of safely increasing range of motion that enhance flexibility by way of the 3 S’s.”

 

“…overall, this was a phenomenal day of learning and I am incredibly thankful for the skills I now have with me to use on myself and with my clients.
Thank you very much!”

 

“Steve is a humble knowledgeable coach and inspirational human being.
The principles 3 S principles are gold.
The mental approach is a missing link to the true flexibility one potentially can attain.
Mobility in itself grants a tremendous increase in flexibility.
The different mobility, rnt, pnf, partner drills bridge the gap to next level strength and flexibility.
Gained confidence from the practice of trying and succeeding in different splits and stretches.
Carry over of tension and breathing into actual real time strength gains.”

 

“I thought it was a great course. This is my third time going through and really liked some of the new cues. (Waiting out tension).”

 

“Thank you for today. I wasn’t sure what the workshop would cover exactly. I came on Scott’s recommendation. Surprisingly, I was actually familiar with several of the concepts discussed. I’ve done some research on my own and I think have one of Pavel’s books.
For me, the extra attention to the mobility helped me see some issues I’ve been having from a different perspective. I will surely be working with Scott on this new awareness. I know that it will influence my work with him.
I don’t really have any criticisms.”

 

“I thought the class was very insightful, motivating as well.  The flow of the class was very engaging.  It made me very aware of the importance of incorporating flexibility into your workout routine.
Prior to this weekend I was extremely tight and I almost just did a split. That for me helps me realize that working out is not just repetitive weight lifting but needs to involve putting all your muscles back into place while pushing yourself a little further and out of your comfort zone. … I would recommend this class for sure!  Thank you!”

 

“I really enjoyed today’s workshop. All of the information that I’ve read regarding gaining flexibility efficiently were covered through the whole day. I thought it was very helpful to actually see it and experience it in person with a certified instructor rather than doing it on my own and waste my time practicing the wrong way. I’ll definitely recommend this to those who are in pursuit of gaining flexibility and at the same time stay strong through each movement. Thanks, Steve!”
