Lee Moodley

South African Movement Therapist And Mobility Specialist

Lee Moodley is an established South African Movement Therapist and Mobility Specialist. After university Lee entered Project Management in the Bulk Material Handling Industry, however, the work intensity weighed on his mental health. This led him to a Mixed Movement Arts System, called Budokon, which inspired Lee to switch career paths. Thus, he feels that his work is not a passion of choice but a path that found him. Budokon taught Lee the balance of mindfulness and performance training, a unique framework for mind-body conditioning. However, it is too athletically challenging to become part of mainstream yoga.
 
This led to Lee working in gyms where he thought mindful training would be appreciated. He was a yoga teacher for one of South Africa’s leading gyms, Virgin Active. He quickly became the Regional Yoga Mentor, providing yoga training for teacher assessments and training modules. He also setup Virgin Active’s first hot yoga class in the world. However, he found that mind-body connection was not a priority of gym attendees. This led him to take the leap and start his own boutique movement studio, and the Kinisi Method was born.
 
A major influence to the Kinisi Method is Functional Range Systems (FRS), a system of joint health, and mobility training based on scientific principles and research. It simplifies the principles of joint articulation and control, and nervous system feedback. Lee is currently the highest-certified FRS provider in Africa, and he blends this tool into his tailored mindful movement training.
