Exploring the Power

Curated by Xander

Doctor of Physical Therapy and Mind-Body Movement Coach.

I’m Xander, a Doctor of Physical Therapy and Mind-Body Movement Coach based out of Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. I work with clients 1:1 with my company Movement rX.

I am most in my flow state when I am moving or teaching safe and effective movements. So many people go through big life experiences that limit their movement, and then it may be painful or scary getting back to it. My goal is to make movement enjoyable again and in a fear-free experience. I believe my purpose is to guide others in overcoming hesitations by breaking down barriers together, uncovering the root causes, and exploring the power of breath + intentional movement for both body and mind.

What IM ROCKIN'

The Courier Pant is my new go-to. I love how transformative it is either with a tee or making it a whole outfit with the jacket.

05 WHAT I'M UP TO, HEALTH-WISE


Cooking
Going for a mindful/reflective walk and listening to an audiobook or podcast is something I look forward to every day. Most of the time I really enjoy cooking. I knew I was getting old when going to the farmers market and spending a few hours cooking became oddly meditative
