Where I was very drawn to creating detailed programs for athletic progression, Brandee\\u2019s classes were about creating a profound experience for the student, and that was reflected by the continual praise her students shared with me about her abilities as an instructor. \\n\\nSo I was really excited to bring her on and talk specifically about her recent work around self defense training and using parkour as a vital expression of that practice. \\n\\nFor anyone who\\u2019s ever been interested in self preservation training, or who has ever thought about how the practices of martial arts and parkour can mutually benefit and enhance one another, this episode will be right up your alley. \\n\\n============\\nLearn More about Brandee Laird\\n\\nWeb: https://www.citizenoperatingsystems.co/\\nYT: https://www.youtube.com/c/CitizenOperatingSystems\\nIG: https://www.instagram.com/monkeemoves/\\nIG: https://www.instagram.com/citizenoperatingsystems/\\n\\n============\\n\\n\\U0001f44dTo support the podcast please like, share, subscribe and turn on the notifications by hitting the bell icon. \\n\\n\\U0001f464 VISIT US ONLINE\\n- EMP Website: https://www.evolvemoveplay.com\\n- EMP Shop: https://shop.evolvemoveplay.com\\n- IG: @RafeKelly - http://www.instagram.com/rafekelley/ \\n- FB: @RafeKelleyMovement - https://www.facebook.com/RafeKelleyMo...\\n- Twitter: @rafekelley - https://twitter.com/rafekelley\\n- YT Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/user/Faelcind...\\n- Become a Patron: https://www.patreon.com/rafekelley'
