In this episode of Anatomical Gangster, Sue Hitzmann welcomes Michelle Nayeli Bouvier—movement educator, fascia visionary, and founder of the Kutilaa School of Embodied Resilience—for a conversation that bridges Tantrik wisdom, fascia science, and the art of adaptive movement. Michelle’s work translates the language of spirals, tension networks, and biotensegrity into practical embodiment. Her upcoming presentation at the Fascia Research Congress, Biotensegrity-Informed Movement: Integrating Neuromyofascial Research into Clinical Practice, explores how fascia’s dynamic architecture reshapes our understanding of movement, healing, and resilience. This episode explores: What sparked Michelle’s “fascianation” and how it shaped her teaching How biotensegrity-informed movement transforms clinical and somatic practice The spiral nature of fascia and its impact on movement intelligence How Tantrik yoga and fascia science co-create a deeper healing paradigm The nervous system’s role in resilience and embodied awareness The philosophy behind the Kutilaa School and what embodied resilience really means Myths Michelle loves busting—and what’s lighting her up in current research 🎧 Tune in for a conversation that invites you to move beyond rigid alignment and into the living, spiraling intelligence of your body. #MichelleNayeliBouvier #Biotensegrity #FasciaScience #AnatomicalGangster #EmbodiedResilience #KutilaaSchool #TantrikYoga #SueHitzmann #SpiralMovement #FasciaResearchCongress
