Sports, training, movement, and education have always been at the core of my development as a person. I played waterpolo for PSV Eindhoven, competing in multiple national playoff finals and European Cups while completing my MSc in Leisure Studies.

I faced a life-altering accident at 25 in Capetown, experiencing severe physical and mental challenges. Despite disorientation, emotional struggles, and memory loss, I received support from health professionals, gradually rebuilding my life. Reconnecting with my passion for sports, I leveraged the benefits of movement to recover fully, both physically and mentally.

After a decade of experience as a personal trainer, working with loyal and dedicated clients, I founded Staetsgeheim, a multidisciplinary Private Gym in Amsterdam, aimed to always find the best guidance at the right moment. Since a year I have fully immersed myself in both the theory and practice of Functional Patterns, an innovative method designed to optimize biomechanics. As a result, performance improves, pain decreases or is eliminated, muscles activate in a more balanced and efficient way, structural alignment improves, and many other benefits emerge, all supported by a rapidly growing body of evidence demonstrating transformative results.

FUNCTIONAL PATTERNS

Functional Patterns is a training methodology that was founded in 2006 by CEO Naudi Aguilar. Naudi has conducted seminars globally certifying practitioners like us. We confidently say that Functional Patterns is the best in the fitness industry. Just look at the results achieved worldwide by Functional Patterns practitioners.

WHAT ARE FUNCTIONAL PATTERNS?

Unlike any other point in human history, the main health crisis we face is the imbalance within our society and our disconnection from nature. Moving away from natural practices and shifting towards a more modern way of living has greatly affected our ability to move correctly and stay out of pain.

So, how can we achieve balance in a world filled with imbalance? The answer is straightforward: our health depends on how well we adapt to the natural environment. The more harmoniously we coexist with nature, the healthier and more resilient we become. For humans, this means bringing us back to the beneficial aspects of our evolutionary blueprint that made us healthy to begin with.

THE BLUEPRINT

There’s an evolutionary blueprint to how all organisms work and Functional Patterns has been cracking the code in human movement for nearly 15 years. Resulting from tens of thousands of hours in testing, we have pioneered the FP methodology, syncing the physics of our natural environment to our health better than any other system out there.

Our conclusion has been to train humans according to their biological movement characteristics: Standing, Walking, Running, and Throwing — The “FP Big 4”. By optimizing these four human functions, achieving better health is not a gamble, but an inevitability. This is what it means to train Functional Patterns!

The program
Programs start with an extensive movement, posture, and gait analysis. From there, we create a fully personalized program focused on achieving your goals.

We will use different types of equipment such as:

• Wattson functional pulley machine

• Official Functional Patterns equipment, such as leg- and torque straps, RG Lever, RG Bar, Leverage King, RG Bells, Functioneck

• Paraball, paramace, indian clubs, slamball

• Myofascial Release balls
