“A+ Very calming manner, takes time to answer questions. He’s great one on one. I liked the chance to feel for myself what is happening in the body, very easy to follow. Teacher was unexpectedly hilarious, which made me feel less nervous.”
Marci Griffith, LMP
Fantastic. Love the easy going attitude and ability to make the student feel comfortable and at ease while learning new material. Great way to learn how to assess the body in a new way.
Amber Lopez, LMP
This class is up with the best-clear instruction and useful material. I will be able to apply what I have learned immediately. I liked the fact you are teaching us to view the body from the bones and joints to change our way of considering only muscles.
John Tuttle, LMP
Get ready for your mind to be, ‘blown!’ Excellent, great stuff! My only negative is my inability to remember everything, because I want to use it all! Great delivery and mastery of content! I never felt overwhelmed! Liked the ease of presentation, jokes, explanations, awesome!!
Laura Schouten, LMP
Kinowelgeable, relaxed, great with visual hands on demonstration. Highly recommend. Joe makes the class fun. Wonderful hands-on learning that you can use immediately and easy new concepts to incorporate.

Joe did a great job keeping terms/language simple and easy to follow. The amount of content was well worth my time and money spent on this class; exceeded my expectations.

Unique, 10/10, rare to see such an integrative philosophy, I”ll be checking into Joe’s other classes
Judy Hammer, LMP
I liked that you acknowledged the complexity of the topics and didn’t try to make it black and white. He was non-judgmental and comfortable w subject matter. Authentic, created a safe space. Very respectful to class members.
