Welcome back to the Evolve Move Play podcast!
In today’s conversation we are joined by the one and only Tim Shieff!
In the late 2000’s Tim was one of the best and most well known parkour athletes in the world, and in today’s discussion we will be hearing about the personal and professional struggles he faced that would lead him on a tumultuous journey for a healthier, more sustainable lifestyle.
Along the way Rafe will share parallels of his own journey for personal health and healing, including the role that childhood trauma plays in physical ailments and injury, therapeutic practices he’d employed to overcome these issues, and the deep work that has been required to repair and rejuvenate his closest relationships.
They will also talk at length about the way all of this has evolved their understanding of human movement and the way that they view their roles as coaches and mentors.
This is a very rich discussion that you won’t want to miss out on.

Unleashing Fluidity: The Science and Art of Soft Acrobatics with AARON MARTIN | EMP Podcast 136
Welcome back to the Evolve Move Play podcast!
In this episode, I explore the world of soft acrobatics with Aaron, an acrobatics coach and sports science student from Frankfurt, Germany.
Diving into the intricacies of movement, Aaron shares his journey of myth-busting traditional beliefs about motor learning, and how soft acrobatics serves as a bridge between the realms of physical capability and artistic expression.
We discuss how this practice is not just about acrobatic proficiency but also about fostering a deep connection with oneself, nature, and the community.
Join us to learn about the unique offerings of soft acrobatics, its foundation in sports science, and how it contrasts with conventional fitness approaches, providing a pathway to development and transformation.
