LIMITED-TIME OFFER: Calling all movement-conscious people who are ready to embrace a movement-filled life TODAY
“It makes me feel like a lot of the activities I used to do are still possible”
ACTUAL QUOTE FROM A TAKE10 STUDENT ☝️
You can feel capable & enjoy your favorite activities again - at any age!!!
Imagine yourself:
- Swinging on the monkey bars even if you haven’t played on them in decades
- Planning your Camino trek without fear that knee or foot pain will force you to call it off mid-way
- Hearing your grandkids call you their “adventure Grandma” - because you’re the fun one!
- Improving your balance, so you feel confident tackling exposed hikes or the dreaded icy sidewalk
- Enjoying a lovely, restful full squat… and be able to get back up again, hands-free
- Spending hours digging in your garden every spring & summer without a sore back, knees or feet….
- Hearing your friends asking if you’ve lost weight because you’ve been straightening out the crunched parts of your body
- Spending less time doing “exercises” and more time finding creative ways to move your body All. Day. Long.
- Giggling about secret movement victories that don’t make sense to anyone else you know, like when your left big toe lifts up by itself for the very first time!
- Waking up one day and suddenly realizing you’re not in pain, your shoulders are fine, your fingers aren’t numb, and your hips don’t hurt when you sleep on your side
- Supporting your Hatha Vinyasa yoga practice by improving your alignment & joint mobility, and adding a big dose of daily squatting, walking & hanging from the monkey bars
- Caring confidently for your body with better movement, so you feel stronger, more fluid, and more capable than you did 20 years ago
DESPITE WHAT THE WORLD TELLS YOU
It’s not normal for us to hurt or slow down as we age
We associate getting older with aches and pains, stiffness, arthritis, and immobility.
As a society, we spend way too much of our lives being sedentary, not moving enough, and not moving in the right ways. And, unfortunately, conventional fitness doesn’t give our bodies the physical inputs we truly need.
Here’s the thing: our modern bodies need the same types of movement that our hunter-gatherer ancestors enjoyed.
If we want to truly thrive, we must give our bodies more of the movement we evolved with (like walking & squatting), more often, with more variety.
When we see life through a movement lens, we transform our relationship with our bodies. Not only can we start feeling better right away, we’re investing in a future of being active for decades beyond what we may have imagined.
Because how you move defines how you live
So, if you feel like this right now….👇
“I feel old in my movements and in my body (I’m only 45!).”
“My ability to do the activities I used to do is very limited.”
“I feel stuck & can’t stop wondering if hip and back pain will just be my new normal.”
“I sit in front of my computer for 8 hours, so movement isn’t integrated into my day.”
“I feel like my body is letting me down.”
I get it, because I felt like my body was letting me down too
Hi, I’m Petra…
When I was in my 30s I felt broken…I injured myself every time I tried a physical activity. I had pelvic floor issues, chronic foot problems, and would wake up with debilitating neck pain (so bad I’d have to call in sick to work).
I spent thousands of dollars trying different solutions.
Physiotherapy. Chiropractic. Acupuncture. Osteopathy. Massage therapy. Naturopathy. Rolfing.
Yet, my body still hurt.
I refused to give up - and I finally realized that the missing piece was how I was moving my body
My nagging injuries were the result of sedentary living, poor body alignment, and overdosing on intense exercise!
I immersed myself in the latest movement science (with a focus on functional strength, mobility, and natural movement). Finally, I had a roadmap to fix my issues.
When I took responsibility for my own healing, I connected with my body and built a foundation for the vibrant physical well-being and active adventures I was dreaming of.
My movement practice has transformed my health for the long-term
Today, my feet are strong and healthy, my neck and back pain are gone, and I’ve ditched the Advil.
At 50, I’m stronger, more mobile and (most importantly) more capable than ever. In the last few years, I started surfing and enjoyed a 32-day trek in Nepal.
Even more importantly? I’m thrilled to have supported over 44,897 students on their own journeys to body awareness, resilience, and physical self empowerment, through my free & paid programs, including my signature Take10 membership.
You’re not broken…
Your body has the incredible potential to heal, no matter how old you are
If you give your body the kind, nurturing movement it needs, you can have a body that just “works!”
A body that feels good and allows you to do everything you love…
And trust me when I say, you can build your fluidity, strength, and mobility even if you don’t think it’s possible.
Movement changed my life, and now I’m on a mission to change yours

Here’s how Take10 helps every age, body, and capacity build a movement-filled life
Form Future Foundations
In Steps 1-4, you’ll work on foundational skills from your toes to the tips of your fingers. Many students feel some notable relief (and enhanced mobility) in the first few weeks of this work. You’ll gain awareness of your body and its current capacity, as you awaken and nourish it.
Build on Your Wins
As you progress onto Steps 5-8, you’ll work on bigger picture natural movement skills, which will let you explore heavier loads, build strength and control, and increase your ranges of motion. So you’ll feel like you can confidently “load” your body and do more fun things with ease (and less pain & stiffness)!
Add Context, Complexity, and Challenge
Finally, during Steps 9-12, you’ll troubleshoot specific issues and build awesome skills. You’ll increase your capacity to tackle more complex or demanding challenges like long distance backpacking, taking a gymnastics class, or meeting your teenage nephew on the tennis court.
Take10 helps Kathleen improve her mobility, decrease pain and move more easily
“I had pain and range of movement loss in my shoulder after I overreached clearing snow from the roof of my car. This went on for a year. As an active 63-year-old who hikes, gardens, and does yoga everyday, this was a real problem. I was constantly feeling the limitations that had settled in.
Little by little, I felt my shoulder return to normal and probably better than it was before. All my joints move so much better. I am able to move my body with so much more ease and elasticity. I can get low to the ground easily. I love it down there! I want to be able to move in all directions freely and be healthy the rest of my life.”
– Kathleen Crescenzo
