Program

Moving away from nature has led you to lose many of your basic motor skills with associated psychophysical consequences. Quadrupeds, ground movements, balance, running, jumps, vaulting, climbing techniques, lifting, transporting, throwing, and receiving objects, fighting games, and proprioceptive.

The camp will allow you to take back all this and test how physical and mental well-being can be achieved by learning and developing practical skills; develop excellent and versatile conditioning for the body, practicality, and adaptability of movement with the environment around you, mental focus and awareness in movement.

Why? Why should you do it?

To become more adaptable and re-appropriate the efficient, free, and flowing movements that characterize you as a species. To improve not only joint mobility and proprioception but also coordination, reactivity, and therefore strength, speed, and power. Because by re-appropriating the natural movements, you will have a uniform distribution of work over different muscle chains so as to develop the body harmoniously and naturally. To return to walking barefoot, to climb, to move in the open air like when you were children and at the same time improve mnemonic and cognitive performance.

What? What's this?

It is fitness for the real world, it is a training system based on the development of practical skills that put the individual at the center. You will learn to move efficiently in all planes of movement, taking many forms depending on the environment. You will explore a range of motor skills that the human body has developed in its evolutionary path in order to survive.

You will then see how to use these skills in real life by adapting them both in the natural and urban context. You will understand what it means to return to the origins, to nature through direct contact with it every day of the camp. You will develop the ability to change position, movement, and rhythm efficiently by taking advantage of all the options and possibilities available.

You will learn to have complete control of the body and to understand the muscles and joints. You will train the balance on the feet and hands by adapting to different positions and surfaces. Reactivating these forgotten physiological and ancient movements means positively influencing the organism both physically and mentally.

Who? Who is it for?

It is a discipline within everyone's reach, regardless of age, sex, or physical constitution, and it is for all the objectives, whether they are aesthetic, health, or athletic preparation. To those who want to make friends with gravity and use it to train effectively. To those who want greater awareness of the body, mind, and surrounding environment in the here and now. To those who remained a child and to those who want to become a child again. To those who want to be outdoors who are tired of being eight hours a day in front of a computer.

Instructors

Tiziano Dimattia

Tiziano Dimattia is a graduate and associated Yoga teacher Hari-Om and a certified instructor of MovNat. Driven by the need to strengthen the body and calm the mind, Titian faced the practice of yoga and Muay Thai, without knowing that he would soon find himself addicted to movement in all its forms. With Yoga it was immediately love, given by the pleasure of finding improvements, in the beginning on a physical and motor level, later on an inner level, and over time the discovery of a space of free expression of the deepest self. Shortly thereafter he decided to undertake the training taught
