Meet the founder

Hi, I’m Liam, and I’m the founder of OG Movement.

I created this unique offering off the back of a 10 year career as a Personal Trainer, where I worked with dozens of clients specialising in Strength and Mobility, and restoring Posture and Joint Function. As I progressed further down the path in this career, I began to see more and more the ways in which people were suffering with problems far beyond the scope of what I could solve in a gym.

During this time, I developed a love for climbing trees, which quickly moved beyond a hobby and became both a training modality and a way of connecting to Nature. It became a gateway for me into a deeper relationship with the more-than-human world, and when I moved to the Northern Rivers I knew in my bones that my mission was to learn from those who could teach me to support people into deeper connection to their physical body, and to the natural world.

Over the past 5 years I have completed a Nature Connection Teacher Training, engaged in a career as a Bush Regenerator helping to care for Country by restoring native biodiversity, spent a lot of time in the Men’s Work space honing my facilitation and ability to hold space, and learned a great deal from a man I see as a master teacher of Movement and Somatics, especially as it relates to our evolving in a natural environment.

I would like to take a moment here to acknowledge and show my deepest respect and gratitude to my teachers; Simon Thakur of Ancestral Movement, Kate and Sam of Nature Philosophy, and Lawrence Hill of Nature Connection Coaching, among many others. Without their generous teaching, I would not have the skills, knowledge, and opportunity to serve others in this way.

OG Movement is an offering that blends all of the knowledge, skills, and wisdom I have gained in the past 15 years and serves as a container for those I work with to transform their lives from flat and disconnected, to empowered, enriched, and alive.
