Evolve Move Play Podcast

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. If you enjoy the conversation, be sure to like, subscribe, and check out Tim’s work at the links provided below.

Welcome back to the Evolve Move Play podcast! In today’s conversation we are joined once again by Flynn Disney, a parkour athlete and coach who has spent the last several years integrating theory and practice within movement and psychology. Much like our work at EMP, he’s embarked upon a journey to establish an ecology of practices for himself and his students that works to understand the vast amount of scientific, somatic and philosophical information that has been compiled, and translate it into actionable practices that can bring people into deeper levels of knowledge, wisdom and meaning in life. Throughout our chat we’ll touch on the importance of play as well as sensitive awareness for achieving a sound and healthy mind/body, the various approaches one might take upon the path of self cultivation, and the oftentimes difficult balance that must be obtained between hard work and rest.

Welcome back to the Evolve Move Play podcast! In today’s conversation, Kyle Koch and I delve into the transformative power of embodied movement practices and deep nature connection. As senior coaches and facilitators of Evolve Move Play, we share our journeys from feeling uninspired in the modern world to discovering profound meaning and connection through parkour, natural movement, and ancestral skills. Kyle and I discuss the integral role of physical practices in shaping one's character, and how the reciprocal opening that occurs between self, others, and the environment is fundamental to falling in love with life itself. We explore the limitations of fitness modalities born in isolation from nature, and how the immersive "Ecology of Practices" we've developed invites practitioners into a more holistic and integrated way of being. We also tackle some of the challenges facing today's younger generation, from the attention-hijacking algorithms of social media to the scarcity of free play and embodied role models. Kyle and I make a compelling case for getting this work out to more adults, who can then pass it on to the children in their lives, and help restore a more grounded and nourishing way of relating to self and world. For anyone yearning for deeper connection and a movement practice that touches the soul, this episode is an inspiring call to step outside the box and embrace our full human potential. If you are interested in furthering this journey of discovery and transformation make sure to check out our in-person events kicking off for the 2024 season. https://www.evolvemoveplay.com/weekend-workshops TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Kyle's Journey: From IT to Embodiment 07:05 - Evolving Evolve Move Play: Merging Nature and Movement 17:37 - Facilitating Connection Through Movement and Dialogue 30:32 - Movement as a Vehicle for Character Development 37:42 - Technology's Impact on Human Capacities and Childhood 47:35 - Cultivating Embodied Play and Falling in Love with Being 54:15 - Navigating Attention-Hijacking Paradigms 59:49 - Upcoming Events and Closing Thoughts EMP | Visit Us Online - EMP Website: www.evolvemoveplay.com - EMP Substack: evolvemoveplay.substack.com - IG: @RafeKelly - www.instagram.com/rafekelley/ - FB: @RafeKelleyMovement - www.facebook.com/RafeKelleyMovement - Twitter: @rafekelley - twitter.com/rafekelley - YT Subscribe: www.youtube.com/user/Faelcind?sub_confirmation=1 - Become a Patron: www.patreon.com/rafekelley KYLE KOCH -IG: @trottingsparrow - https://www.instagram.com/trottingsparrow/

Welcome back to the Evolve Move Play podcast! In this episode, I sit down with Aaron Cantor, an EMP coach, movement facilitator, and long-time collaborator.

Welcome back to the Evolve Move Play podcast! In this episode Jordan Hall and I explore the role of embodiment in addressing the meta crisis facing humanity. Jordan shares his background in the tech industry and the origins of the Game B project, which seeks to understand and respond to the interconnected challenges of our time. The discussion delves into the relationship between individuals and institutions, the evolution of paradigmatic thinking, and the shift from a world of rhythm to one of tone. We examine the tension between truth-first and beauty-first approaches to reality, and how this relates to the historical relationship between science and religion. We also discuss the concept of faith as an embodied capacity, situated within a stack of communication, understanding, hope, and love. Our conversation highlights the importance of embodied practices in developing virtue, cultivating faith, and navigating the complexities of the meta crisis. Perhaps one key to moving forward is to avoid panic and to love more deeply, emphasizing the transformative power of embodiment in personal and collective growth.

Welcome back to the Evolve Move Play podcast! I was able to have a candid conversation with Warren Farrell at The Alliance for Responsible Citizenship (ARC) Conference. In this Part 1 of my conversation with Warren I dive into an enlightening discussion with Warren, a pioneer in exploring men's roles in modern society and the author of "The Boy Crisis". Our conversation navigates the intricate maze of masculinity, from its historical roots to its evolving nature in today's world. We tackle tough questions about what it means to be a man in contemporary times, the impact of societal expectations, and the fine line between traditional masculinity and its modern interpretation. Whether discussing the psychology of young men, the balance between strength and sensitivity, or the shift from being a 'human doing' to a 'human being,' this episode is a must-listen for anyone intrigued by the complex dynamics of gender roles and personal identity in our rapidly changing world.

Welcome back to the Evolve Move Play Podcast! Today's episode was filmed at the ARC Conference in London and features our guest Rob Henderson, author of the book Troubled: A Memoir of Foster Care, Family, and Social Class. Rob grew up in foster homes in Los Angeles and the rural town of Red Bluff, California. He joined the Air Force at the age of seventeen. After his enlistment, he graduated from Yale University with a BS in psychology and was subsequently awarded a Gates Cambridge Scholarship. Once described as 'self-made' by the New York Times, Rob received a PhD in psychology from St. Catharine's College, Cambridge in 2022. His writing has appeared in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Boston Globe, and the New York Post, among other outlets. Rob's popular Substack newsletter is sent each week to more than forty thousand subscribers. In our chat today we will discuss Rob’s background and upbringing, as well as share our thoughts on growing into manhood, cultivating positive masculine virtues, social media, and what makes a good man or woman as opposed to what makes a good person.

Welcome back to the Evolve Move Play Podcast! Today we’re joined by Joseph Bartz Joseph Germany, to an artistic family of writers, musicians and people working in the theater. He went through the Waldorf method of schooling, which outside of the usual subjects also puts a lot of value into crafting, music and dancing. At 13 years old, Joseph started delving into various disciplines of physical practice. Starting with martial arts and strength training, his interests expanded to include parkour and aspects of natural movement such as tree climbing and doing most things barefoot. He also became interested in wilderness training and primitive skills, which he has been learning with Uwe Belz. Joseph would take his passion for these physical practices and build a career around them, he has taught countless workshops and helped thousands of students deepen their knowledge and relationship to movement. Today he’s joining us to talk about a variety of topics, including the deep meaning that can be obtained through developing a robust ecology of practices, and how the process of building a skillful body should not only enhance your physical abilities, but your strength of character as well. I really enjoyed having Joseph on the show, and hopefully we’ll be able to continue our chat in the near future.

In today’s chat, we’ll learn a little bit about his past, how he struggled with and overcame heroin addiction, and how that experience has positively impacted the way he approaches and connects with his students today. We’ll also take a deep dive into his thoughts and practices around skill specific training, strength and conditioning work, and injury avoidance.

The Embodied Movement Summit is going live this month, January 24-28, and today on the podcast we are joined by one of the keynote speakers of this amazing event, our good friend Sebastien Foucan! If you’d like to check out his presentation, or any of the 27+ others we have lined up from top professionals in the fields of Movement, Mindfulness, Community and Nature Connection, hit the link to get signed up! https://summit.evolvemoveplay.com/yt For those of you who are unfamiliar, Seb was among the pioneers of parkour in Paris in the 1980s. He was an introverted and unconfident child but liked to go out and explore the environment close to where he lived. As a teenager who struggled at school and had difficulties at home, climbing, jumping, running, playing and interacting with the landscape became an escape for him and his friends. He then developed a love for natural movement. The passion and dedication for his craft led him to be invited to participate in several high profile performance roles with James Bond in Casino Royale, Madonna, Nike and K-swiss amongst others. Today we’re talking about three of our biggest shared passions: Parkour, Martial Arts and Play. These things have shaped both of our lives to such a magnitude that we could probably devote an entire season to the topics and still just scratch the surface. I had a wonderful time talking with Seb, and we will definitely have him on the show again in the future, so if you also enjoyed the conversation, leave a like, comment, and subscribe if you haven’t yet. And again, don’t miss out on the Embodied Movement Summit where you can catch Sebastiens talk “Playfulness for Longevity and Vitality”. During his presentation you’ll discover how you can reconnect with your sense of play to engage in a sustainable and rewarding practice, find out how to free yourself from fear and anxiety, and key into your body's innate, seasonal rhythms so you can adapt your practice and be your best self every day. And that’s just one of the 27+ presentations you get access to by signing up. Here are a few more you won't want to miss: John Vervaeke | “Why we need Movement and Mindfulness to Recover Lost Ways of Knowing and Solve the Meaning Crisis” Kelly Starret | “Discover the Fundamental Tools for Management of Pain and Tissue Quality” Nick Winkelman | “Understand the Power of Language in Coaching and Athletics” Marlo Fisken | “Give Yourself Permission to Express and Serve Your Community Through Expression” Want to jump in or learn more?

Sevilla King runs a YouTube channel called “A Quality Existence” where she explores the connection between the work of folks like Jordan Peterson, John Vervaeke, & Jonathan Pageau with the works of Robert Pirsig, author of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. This book explores what Pirsig would call the “Metaphysics of Quality” which aligns deeply with Vervaeke’s concept of relevance realization and what so many of these thinkers are talking about in the sense of meaning. In this conversation we are going to dive into what Pirsig means by “Quality”; how does it align with models presented by Peterson, Vervaeke & Pageau, and when these models conflict, how do we resolve those conflictions in a way that brings us closer to understanding meaning and implementing practices that bring more meaning to our lives. I had a wonderful time talking with Sevilla, and hope to have her on the show again in the future, so if you also enjoyed the conversation, be sure to leave a like, comment, and subscribe if you haven’t yet.

Most of you are likely familiar with John's work since he’s been our most recurring guest on the podcast, but if you’re new to the show, John is a cognitive psychologist/scientist at the University of Toronto who has made it his mission to understand and remedy the meaning crisis. On today’s episode we are going to talk about how to utilize mindfulness practices to extract insight from our physical practices and transfer those insights to other practices or other aspects of our lives. Can the way we practice our main discipline have a deeply positive impact on how we perform in other sports or activities? Can it have the same positive impact on how we shape our character and experience a meaningful, rewarding life? We believe the answer is a resounding yes, and we want to talk about how to actually make that happen on a regular basis.

Josh is the host of the Combat Learning Podcast and has been deeply involved in the martial arts, both as a practitioner and an instructor, for the past two decades. We both met recently on Rob Gray’s Perception and Action Podcast where we had an incredibly interesting discussion on the role of ecological dynamics in martial arts and MMA training. During that chat, not only was I excited to find that he’s been actively studying and applying constraints led training to his training and that of his students, I was also really intrigued by Josh’s deeper understanding of the history behind the development and rise of certain martial practices and traditions. So today I wanted to bring him on the show and dive deeper into these subjects. We’re going to look at how traditional martial arts pedagogy became established in Japan, Europe and China, identify the reasoning behind some of their methods, and understand how an ecological approach can be applied to vastly improve skill acquisition. I had a wonderful time talking with Josh, and hope to have him on the show again in the future, so if you also enjoyed the conversation, be sure to leave a like, comment, and subscribe if you haven’t yet.

Scott is an MMA Coach in Milwaukee at Primal MKE. I met him recently on a panel for Rob Gray’s Perception and Action Podcast where we talked about applying Ecological Dynamics to coaching Mixed Martial Arts, and that’s exactly what we’re going to dive deeper into today. It was really great to talk to someone who’s been applying the concepts and practices of ecological dynamics to their students, from beginners to combat athletes, on a daily basis. In this episode we’ll talk about the difference between an ecological approach and a more traditional approach and why we greatly prefer the former for teaching our students how to be better martial artists and general movement problem solvers. I had a wonderful time talking with Scott, and hope to have him on the show again in the future.

Jan is a human movement scientist and neuroscientist who has been practicing martial arts since the age of 4. Over the last 46 years he’s trained in a wide variety of combative arts such as Judo, Karate, Pentjak Silat, and Systema. It’s probably no surprise to you then that he is also a renowned self defense expert and psychomotor therapist who works with law enforcement, special forces and elite level athletes. In this conversation we’ll talk a lot about martial arts and the way that cultural influences such as theatre, sport, and even capitalism shape how they have been taught and utilized throughout recent history. We’ll talk about common myths and misconceptions around martial arts and the crucial importance of aliveness and opponent processing feedback for any system or athlete who has a real interest in combative applications. We also have an in depth conversation about our modern health crisis of sedentarism: Obesity, atrophy, incoordination, anxiety, depression, adhd and the importance of utilizing play and movement for character development and cultivating the self through gradual, deliberate exposure to challenge and risk. I had a wonderful time talking with Jan, and hope to have him on the show again in the future.

If you missed our first episode with him, be sure to check that out before watching this one! When we last spoke, my goal for the conversation was to try and see if we could bridge the gap between the symbolic, meaning-focused worldview and a rational materialist, scientific worldview. While our discussion was incredibly rich and brought a lot of value to many of the viewers who shared their responses, there was a point in the conversation where we got stuck and had to put a pin in it. This happened around the idea of the face in the clouds. So as I approached this next conversation, I was pretty intimidated to try to take the conversation further, but by the end of the discussion I was actually really pleased at how far this conversation went and how much more of a bridge I felt like we produced. The first half of our chat revolves around what's happening in our culture around storytelling, and sharing our insights for applying a symbolic worldview to the stories that we’re paying attention to. The second half of the conversation is really about how we bridge these two epistemologies, and we start where we left off with the question of “is a face in the cloud a face in a real way?” What do we mean when we say real? And I think we do some really good work in hacking at that question and then grounding what the discussion is and where the disagreements are. I think there's a ton of valuable insight generation in this conversation and I'm really pleased to be in dialogue with Jonathan and to be able to bring it to you all.

In addition to his passion for parkour and movement in general, Lucas is deeply interested in the subjects of social justice and transhumanism. He and I have had a lot of discussions around these topics over the years and while we share very different views, we’ve always been able to maintain a healthy, collegial dialogue. Lucas reached out to me wanting to have a conversation about these topics on the podcast, and the idea was really interesting to me because while I try not to get too political with these podcasts, I think it’s incredibly important to feature articulate thinkers who hold opposing views so that we can really interrogate these ideas together.

If you’re not familiar with Frosti, he’s one of the real OG American parkour athletes who began training way back in 2001. I’ve known him personally for over 15 years and he has time and time again shown himself to not only be an incredibly skilled practitioner, but one of the most creative and unique athletes to ever influence the sport. We’ll chat at length about that creativity today and I’ll have him share his insights around how he’s been able to use it to his advantage in both a competition setting and more broadly in crafting his career and lifestyle. We are also going to talk about the early days of parkour and Frosti’s experiences seeing the community blow up over the years and how that shaped his outlook and philosophy of the sport.
