Dave's approach is very holistic and we explore the systems, techniques, methodologies and principles by which he presents, through a body of work he describes as 'integrated training' .

We learn about his approach and how he developed his system. We learn about what it's like working with the most elite athletes in the world. We talk about what techniques and approaches we can utilise through daily life. We explore the theory within his teachings and how this correlates to the internal and external operators our day to day.

I hope you can incorporate his teachings in any way, big or small as they add value to this ever expanding, stress prevalent life. Remembering; stress isn't neither good, nor bad, its how we respond and adapt to it.
