Nino Perez

PRIMAL MOVEMENTS

A certified “Animal Flow” Instructor and an instructor at Strategic since 2014, Nino Perez is the primal movement instructor at the gym. His training focuses on helping students achieve better mental and physical health through improved mobility, posture, more flexibility and safe conditioning.
Nino discovered the benefits of primal movement when he was searching for a training method that would complement his training in martial arts, BJJ and kickboxing, and that would help with the injuries that he had gotten from these sports. He wanted add to his fitness regimen a workout that would help heal, increase mobility, achieve greater flexibility, enhance stability and yield better endurance, while challenging his body in a different way. By becoming more in tune with the way a body naturally moves, Nino quickly felt the benefits that come from natural movement.
Nino has a black belt in a Hwa Rang Do, where he began his traditional martial arts training in 1995 and has adopted many of the martial arts philosophy in his training today, and in his primal movement course. He has previous training in kumdo (Korean fencing), Aikido, Tai Chi and Yoga. Currently he also trains in Muay Thai, kickboxing and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
