Dr. Alex will be gone this week while traveling with her family, but she still made time to stop in for a little training. 🥊

One of my favorite things about traveling is getting the chance to drop into different gyms. It’s a great way to get a workout in, experience a different training environment, and meet people you probably never would have crossed paths with otherwise.

I genuinely love hearing people’s stories, learning how they train, and seeing the different dynamics every gym has.

Huge shoutout to Alliance Jiu Jitsu | Juneau for welcoming me in and to Robare for letting me get some work in while I was in town! 🤝🥊

If you have a little extra time when you travel, find a local gym and go move. You might get a lot more out of it than just the workout.

Today is the LAST day to register for the Grandview, MO Chamber of Commerce Woman’s Conference!!

🛑 STOP THE CEMENT TRUCK. 🛑

We officially tried to close the doors on registration last night... but you completely flooded our inbox, and we aren't in the business of turning away women who are ready to build.

So, we pulled some strings. We called Simply Grand Kitchen & Creamery, talked to the team at The View, and negotiated a 48-hour extension on our final headcount.

Here is the new (and final) reality:
You have this weekend to get your name on the list. On Monday morning at 8:00 AM sharp, the final numbers are being submitted, the Design Studios are officially capped, and the doors are locked.

No more excuses. No more saying "I'll do it later." If you want to rip up the old rules and design a custom roadmap for your life and business alongside some incredible industry disruptors... this is your absolute last chance to grab a hard hat.

Let’s get to work.

⏰ FINAL DEADLINE: Monday @ 8:00 AM
🗓️ Event Date: Thursday, August 27th | 12:00 – 5:00 PM
📍 The View | Grandview, MO

I heard you! 📢

Videos can be an important learning tool when doing at home exercises- I am often asked by patient why I don’t have a video library.

And good news : IM WORKING ON IT!

But the answer to why- is because I feel awkward on camera. So please enjoy these bloopers as I keep working behind the scenes to bring videos!

What the heck is dry needling?!

Dry needling uses a thin, sterile needle to target tight, irritated muscles and trigger points that may be contributing to pain or limited movement.

For foot and ankle pain, it can be especially helpful when muscles of the calf, shin, or foot are staying tight or overworked.

At The Movement Clinic, dry needling isn’t used by itself — I combine it with hands-on soft tissue work, joint adjustments/mobility, and active rehab to help improve how the area is actually moving and functioning.

Less pain, better movement, higher quality life!

This weekend I got to be part of Low Kick Camp Muay Thai Gym Women’s Defensive Tactics Seminar — participating, helping with demonstrations, and finishing the day by leading a mobility session for the group.

I love getting to combine these two sides of what I do: training alongside people and talk about how we can move better, stay resilient, and keep doing the things we love.

Such a fun group of women to spend the morning learning, moving, and getting more confident in our own capabilities!

Thank you Low Kick Camp for having The Movement Clinic be part of it!

Grandview Chamber Annual Woman’s Conference is next Thursday!

Register TODAY!

Are you ready to stop fitting your life and career into someone else’s blueprint? 🛠️✨

On August 27th, we are breaking the mold. Welcome to Breaking the Blueprint, our annual Women’s Event - reimagined!

If you’ve joined us in the past, get ready for a completely new experience. We are moving away from traditional panels and lecture-style speakers. Instead, our amazing emcee, Teresa M Deaton - American Family Insurance Agent, will guide us through a hands-on, highly interactive workshop where you get to design a life and business on your own terms.

You’ll rotate through four collaborative Design Studios led by local experts who are ready to help you build a solid foundation:

📐 Storytelling & Branding | Led by Courtney Specht (Owner, Stag & Bird Curated Photo Experiences}
Your brand isn’t something you invent; it’s something you uncover. Challenge the stories keeping you playing small, move beyond borrowed ideas of success, and begin building an authentic, unforgettable brand story.

💰 Financial Wellness | Led by Nina Lowrey (Branch Manager, Commerce Bank)
Money shouldn’t just happen to you; it should be one of your strongest tools. Identify limiting beliefs, create a personalized financial vision, and build practical steps toward long-term confidence and wealth.

💼 Leadership & Team Growth | Led by Brittany Kimble (Owner, Studio Plush & Rooted to Bloom)
Success isn’t about working harder; it’s about building systems that protect your time, energy, and vision. Identify the hidden leaks in your business and create practical structures that support sustainable growth.

🌱 Health & Wellness | Led by Alexandra Scavuzzo (Owner, The Movement Clinic) & Samantha Smith (Owner, Juniper Valley Massage and Spa)
Stop treating wellness like a chore. Discover how movement, recovery, mindset, and daily habits work together to support your professional and personal goals.

While this is an annual event, it is never the same experience twice. Space is limited to ensure a high-impact, hands-on workshop for everyone.

Don’t miss out! Register today to secure your spot in the Design Studio!
