Vital Body Project
Essentials
Recondition your Earth Suit with practices
that are fun, effective & safe for all bodies
[tcb_logo data-id-d=”4″ data-img-style=”width: 100%;” data-alt=””]
Our Earth Suits (bodies) have lots of deferred maintenance
- Some muscles are overworking/tight, others are weak/not firing.
- We’ve got pain & limitation. We may feel discouragement, resignation, or have other negative stories playing.
- Our sitting, standing, driving, and even sleeping positions are perpetuating our challenges.
- We may not have the time or money to see physical therapists, personal trainers, chiropractors, bodyworkers, etc.
- Even if we have been given specific exercises, we struggle to integrate them into our day/week.
Start With These Four.

About the Instructor
Evan Specter
Evan has been an instructor of somatic arts & healing arts for 25 years. Facing a double hip replacement in 2016, he embarked on a project to vitalize and repair his own body. He used stick stretching and other practices to prepare for & quickly recover from the surgery. He rehabilitated a sad, sore body into a vital, flexible one.
He acquired a whole new toolkit for addressing discomfort, inflammation, balance and coordination. Sparing no expense, he tried a dozen modalities, and distilled the most powerful of these into the Vital Body Project, an accessible protocol that somehow finds a way to make it a journey of self-discovery as well.

Feel like you don’t have time for this?
There’s a classic Buddhist tale of a man who visits the Buddha asking for answers. The Buddha offers him a tea cup and starts pouring tea into it, and keeps pouring until it runs over, fills the saucer and then spills onto the floor. The Buddha explains to the perplexed visitor that we’re like that cup, already overfull but seeking more.
If we lack time in the morning for a 15 minute routine, we can ourselves to bed 15 minutes earlier. Saying ‘yes’ to this may require saying ‘no’ to that.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where do these practices come from?
For decades, Evan has been exploring different healing modalities and seeking out innovative instructors both as a instructor and patient. In his searches, he found a group of extraordinary multi-modal masters and the Vital Body Project has become the home for all of their work.
Stick Stretching was developed by Dr. Arthur Faygenholtz, a brilliant chiropractor and exercise physiologist based in Capitola. Some other practices come from Darryl Jackson, a chiropractor and personal trainer in Albany, CA.
Also featured in the broader Vital Body Project is Tracy Lease, a teacher of yoga, qi gong, pilates and breathwork based in Grass Valley, CA as well as Dr. Jon Schreiber, founder of the Breema Center in Oakland, CA.
My body has issues. Can I safely do these?
It’s essential that we gain the ability to slow down and inhabit our body while we use it! We may have become numb to our body because it wasn’t a safe place. Rather than a boilerplate caution to “seek the guidance of your doctor”, I will recommend that you show these videos to your chiropractor, physical therapist or personal trainer. If you practice with mindfulness and patience, and modify them to accommodate your present limitations, you can see progress without setbacks.
