Absolutely fascinating chat with the absolute legend that is Jonny Clayton.
I have had the pleasure of knowing Jonny for years, Jonny put me through my paces when I was fighting and is one of the OG fitness coaches in Dubai.
For the past 8 years Jonny has worked closely with movement guru Ido Portal and has become a student of and teacher of his process.
Jonny goes in deep on what his practice look likes and outlines how movement training is much more than just physical practice, explaining the emotional and mental elements of the training method.
Movement practice can be described in many ways, Jonny describes it as playing, dancing, fighting, parkour, and strength training. These training sessions sound as mentally grueling as they do physically, and place a big emphasis on learning, both about the art and about yourself.
Jonny goes on to tell us about his rigorous training program, often 6-7hrs a day, and how his training is him learning so he can educate his own pupils.
Jonny is as genuine as they come, and has a really honest approach to training and coaching, I got so much out of this conversation, it's great to learn about other coaches crafts.
I'm sure you'll enjoy this one too, have a great week!
