  • Erwan Le Corre - The Godfather of Natural Movement

    Erwan Le Corre, a French American, is the founder and innovator of a physical education system and lifestyle known as MovNat, which derives from the French words "mouvement naturel" ("natural movement").

    As a child he spent his free time outdoors exploring and playing in the fields and woods around his village. At age 18, Le Corre received a black belt in Karate. Through this means of physical fitness, he realized that this method had inherent limits that didn't allow him to push his body and mentality to their full potential to grow as a human. Starting at age 19 he did parkour-like training for 7 years with the Parisian stuntman Don Jean Habrey. During this period he also began barefoot running. At age 27 is where he truly began to carve his own path. He began a period of training which included sailing, Olympic weightlifting, rock climbing, long-distance triathlon, trail running, and Brazilian jiu-jitsu. After this, he was all but convinced there was a more primal, and effective way to properly condition the body. It was through his research into this that he created MovNat. 

    Erwan has since been featured in Men's Health USA in an inspiring article about himself and MovNat written by New-York Time best-seller author Christopher McDougall. Now, hear his take on the Essential 11 questions.

  • Ryan Michler - Reclaimer & Restorer of Masculinity

    Ryan Michler is bringing men back to their roots of masculinity. 

    Most of his childhood was spent without a permanent father figure. He never learned how to work on his car. He never had the chance to roughhouse with his dad. He didn’t even learn how to throw a baseball correctly until he was a freshman in high school. As he talked with other men, he realized that there is a huge need for learning how to be a better father. But he's also seen a need for strong and honorable men outside of the home.

    And that is why he started Order of Man. Ryan is on a mission to take back what it means to be a man- to learn together from the best men the world has to offer. 

    Ryan does not claim to be an expert. He's learning. And, as he says, the only thing that qualifies him to do this work is that he has a passion for self-improvement. His goal is to take his shortcomings in life and make them his strengths.
