The only program you need
for your low back pain
The simple, easy to follow, 5-day program specifically designed by physiotherapists for recurring low back pain.
“The five-day low back program is a great tool for us to offer as an inexpensive option for patients with back pain. For some clients unable to access physiotherapy this is a great option.”
“I have found the First Mover short course extremely effective in alleviating and curing my patients back pain. The affordable cost and 10 minute workouts have led to great program compliance and results. I strongly recommend this course to anyone with a previous and current history of back pain. ”
Does this sound like you?
-Recently injured your low back... again.
-Treatments don’t seem to help, or only provide temporary relief.
-Previous rehabilitation efforts were inadequate, confusing, boring or difficult.
-Paying for expensive ongoing treatments that have no end.
The truth about low back rehab.
The truth about treating your low back pain is that there is no better treatment than movement and exercise.
Massage, heat, cold, electrical stimulation, creams… none of them provide long term results.
When you visit a physiotherapist the most important thing they can give you are exercises.
But here’s the thing, physiotherapists know you probably won’t do them.
So at most they’ll give you 2 or 3 simple things to do, come back next time for the progression (and don’t forget your wallet).
Instead we are giving you 5 days worth of exercises and their progressions to work through.
If you were to go to anyone for 5 sessions you’ll be out of pocket a significant amount.
Because we want you to have access to this we are giving it away for less than the inflated price of a coffee.
Here’s what you’ll get:
A year’s access to our 5 Day Low Back Program
Five 10-15 minute follow-along sessions
Fully instructed and demonstrated
Designed by physiotherapists
Research backed and clinically proven exercises to reduce low back pain
The best part is it can be done along side all of the other treatments that make you feel good.

For me the First Mover programs are the culmination of my life’s work building movement programs that are powerful, inspiring, fun, safe, and accessible to everyone. Over the last 20 years I have identified many of the barriers, both physical and psychological that prevent us from continuing a regular exercise and movement program. This includes programs that are far too demanding; programs that do not provide adequate modifications for people with an injury history or suffering pain; programs that are rigid and lacking creativity; programs that do not accommodate for unexpected changes in physical and emotional well being; and programs that are just not fun to complete.
My passion is developing functional exercise programs that fit into your life, are inspiring to complete, and leave you feeling and looking incredible.
My qualifications and experience express my commitment to learning and innovation. I hold university degrees in both Physiotherapy and Exercise Science. I am an accredited Strength and Conditioning coach, Pilates Instructor and advanced Hatha Yoga teacher. I combine this commitment to education with over 20 years of practical experience working with beginner to professional level athletes in surfing, basketball, football and outdoor adventure sports. The reason people seek my expertise are for 3 reasons:
To assess, treat, and rehabilitate any current or pre-existing injuries
To improve movement patterns through analysis of biomechanics
To design and implement exercise programs to improve movement, quality of life and athletic performance.
The First Mover programs have been designed as a comprehensive course which guides and supports you through each step of your journey to better health and improved quality of life.

My goal is not to create another standard exercise program, it is to build you up from ground level in a safe and sustainable way. There are hundreds of programs out there that are essentially identical and often lead to injuries, overtraining and burnout.
What we are striving to create here is a way for someone on any level to start from the basics and progress through to complex and difficult activities as you choose. There were many things that I learned during my studies that were so essential to not only exercise but to movement in general. I would often ask myself why don’t they teach this at school? This is the information we will be incorporating into your programs. Using our experience we have created something that is philosophically different from the typical exercise program and we endeavour to give you the ability to safely and comfortably perform whatever activities you choose while also providing you with good fitness, strength and mobility.
The source of fulfillment in my career has been combining theoretical and intellectual knowledge with physical and intuitive knowledge, or to put it simply how we think we move and how we actually move. I can’t wait to share the many revelations I’ve had over the course of my studies and practice with you.
