Bestselling author, speaker, and a leader of the Movement movement,
biomechanist Katy Bowman, M.S. is changing the way we move and
think about our need for movement. Her eight books, including the
groundbreaking Move Your DNA, have been translated into more than a
dozen languages worldwide.
Bowman teaches movement globally and speaks about sedentarism and
movement ecology to academic and scientific audiences such as the
Ancestral Health Summit and the Institute for Human and Machine
Cognition. Her work is regularly featured in diverse media such as
the Today Show, CBC Radio One, the Seattle Times, the Joe Rogan
Experience, and Good Housekeeping.
One of Maria Shriver’s “Architects of Change” and an America Walks
“Woman of the Walking Movement,” Bowman consults on educational and
living space design to encourage movement-rich habitats. She has
worked with companies like Patagonia, Nike, and Google as well as a
wide range of non-profits and other communities to create greater
access to her “move more, move more body parts, move more for what
you need” message.
Her movement education company, Nutritious Movement, is based in
Washington State, where she lives with her family.
"Diastasis recti is a whole-body issue that requires a whole-body
approach. It's refreshing to find a resource that acknowledges that
need and provides concrete steps to achieve it.—Breaking Muscle
"Using the same friendly approach that makes her anatomy and
movement lessons so easy to follow, Bowman provides tactics that
are understandable and clearly described. The use of photography is
also helpful, with the author demonstrating each move in addition
to providing step-by-step instructions. Although Bowman's main
purpose is education, what she really brings is empowerment.
Encouraging people to know their own bodies, and then pursue
solutions that make them healthier and happier, is a powerful
approach to wellness. By making the material understandable,
approachable, and achievable, Bowman offers an outstanding and
necessary guide to diastasis recti and many other abdomen-related
issues. Everyone can benefit from these insights and improve their
health in an empowered and proactive way." —Foreword Reviews
Especially important for people who do CrossFit or weightlifting,
with repetitive movements like overhead presses and heavy squats,
but don't expect to find tables full of Do's and Don’ts. Her
approach is also highly individual and takes into account the many
variables that exist from person to person." —Breaking
