Mix And Cycle Baseworks Logo5

The Baseworks approach is structured on concepts of adaptability, cyclicity, and non-linear/modular learning.

To build any skill, regularity and consistency of practice are vitally important.

As we age, it becomes increasingly harder to change our already established habits and movement patterns.

Anyone who has seriously tried to learn something deeply knows that on occasion you are faced with obstacles such as boredom, exhaustion, injury, inability to create a structure for learning, lack of foundation, reaching a plateau…..etc…

BASEWORKS PRACTICE CONCEPT

MODULARITY

Practice structured into 4 modules with different physical perquisites and learning objectives.

REGULARITY

Public practice sessions 7 days a week from 7 am to 10 pm, making it possible to mix and match practice to compliment other lifestyle endeavors/commitments.

CONSISTENCY

All modules taught in the same teaching methodology, ensuring a consistent learning experience.

CYCLICITY

Since the results of learning in one module directly correspond to the progress in other modules, we encourage cycling the practice sessions to optimize the experience.

NON-LINEARITY

The practice of other disciplines is encouraged.

ADAPTABILITY

Shuffling the modules while modifying intensity to support individual condition supports daily practice without the risk of over-training and injury.

ARCHIVE

Since 2000, the Baseworks Teaching Methodology has been utilized across different disciplines of practice.

The Baseworks Practice Public Classes have been happeing in Tokyo since 2010, as well as pop-up studios in global locations.

The format offers a substantial amount of sessions per week for practitioners to gain a consolidated experience.

Each class is between 60 to 90 minutes.
