A New Approach To Optimising Human Movement - The Human Garage - #029

**Chris Williamson** (0:00)
Hi, friends. Now, you may remember earlier on this year that I got to go away to LA, and I got to see the guys from Ronwad, which was really cool. Got to record some routines with them. I also got to go and see the guys from The Human Garage. Now, The Human Garage is a wellness and movement specialist facility near Santa Monica, just off LA's beach. And I first heard of them when Ben Greenfield mentioned them on his podcast. They have a very progressive, very forward thinking and different alternative view of human anatomy and wellness in general. I thought it would be interesting for me to pay them a visit. So I got in touch and very kindly, they let me go down and use the facility. It ended up being around about a two to two and a half hour procedure. We were supposed to sit down and podcast while I was out there, but then the guy who played Superman in the 2005 movie came in, so he took precedence. But this facility deals with NBA stars, NFL players, doctors, Hollywood movie stars. They literally have got one of the hottest spots in all of LA. I'm very, very fortunate to have been able to go and see them. I wanted to get Garry, who is the co-founder on the podcast, to just try and explain where this very popular, very alternative thinking success has come from. And I think he manages to do it today. So I'm not gonna take it any further. I'm going to let Garry speak for himself. One final thing, if you are in LA and you do want to check out The Human Garage, they haven't sponsored this episode at all. However, the waiting list is incredibly long if you want to see them. But if you mention Modern Wisdom, when you book for your consultation application, they will bump you to the top of the list. I'm going to be really interested to hear some feedback about this one. So don't forget, get at me at Chris Willex on Instagram, Twitter, wherever it is that you want to get in touch or modernwisdompodcast.gmail.com. But for now, on to the show.
Garry, welcome to Modern Wisdom.

Hi, Chris, how are you doing?

**Chris Williamson** (2:41)
Very good, thank you, and yourself?

**Garry Lineham** (2:43)
I'm doing fantastic. Sitting here in Southern California, nice and sunny. We've been having a little bit of a heat wave out here.

**Chris Williamson** (2:52)
Well, it's not too bad in the UK for once either, actually. I'm gonna guess, based on my experience when I was out with you guys, the weather is not going to be quite the same, but we'll take what we can get in England at the moment.

**Garry Lineham** (3:06)
For sure. It's really good having you out here. It was really interesting. I just wish we had more time with you.

**Chris Williamson** (3:11)
Yeah, me too. Me too. LA is one of those places. It's kind of like a hotspot for wellness, and it pushes the forefront and the boundaries to a degree of treatments. Weed is legal out there at the moment. Cannabis is legal.
It seems like it's very progressive on all fronts. Would you say that's about right?

**Garry Lineham** (3:38)
Yeah, I think it's really progressive in all fronts. I mean, I'm from Canada originally and in Vancouver. We're a bit more liberal in all aspects of things. But down here, you've just got a collection of both athletes, professional, otherwise Olympic athletes. So you have a little bit more of the treatment talent and the thought processes and the modalities that are out here. So you just get a bit more of everything and that's all.

**Chris Williamson** (4:03)
Yeah, I get that. So you are the co-founder of The Human Garage.

**Garry Lineham** (4:08)
Yes, my wife is my co-founder. She is the boss. She signs all the checks. I've learned through submission to be very next to her.

**Chris Williamson** (4:18)
Fantastic. Well, you don't want your paycheck cut. That's exactly what happens with my business partner sometimes. If I've pissed him off for a little while, I'll find out that he's got a bunch of my paychecks sat in the safe.

**Garry Lineham** (4:29)
For sure. But we have a whole variety of people, as you know, that come out here. So we have people from all over the world, including UK is our third largest draw market. So we have quite a bit of people come from the UPK out to Venice Beach to see us.

**Chris Williamson** (4:44)
So take everyone through at home who hasn't heard of The Human Garage. Take us through the story, where you started, what your ethos is, where you are now and what you do.
