Breathing and Being and Doing

Scott has been involved in the education of the body for 23 years. He graduated for the College of William and Mary in Virginia in 1982 with majors in Physical Education and Philosophy. Later he attended James Madison University where he earned a Master's degree in Physical Education. He coached the JMU Gymnastics teams from '82-'93. He was voted ECAC Women's Gymnastics Coach of the Year in 1992. He was drawn to Structural Integration when he saw how it created changes that he had been previously taught were unchangeable. It united both his interests in the body and philosophy. "The changes I experienced in my own body by going through the ten sessions were amazing, " says Scott. "I used to always have trouble with my right leg since I broke it during a gymnastics competition in 1979. But after the ten sessions I was amazed at the increase in flexibility and balance that occurred. That much change and relief motivated me to go back to school." And he resumed his studies of anatomy and physiology until he met the strict requirements for acceptance to the Guild for Structural Integration and two years later became as certified practitioner of Structural Integration himself. "I believe that Structural Integration can bring relief to people suffering from chronic aches and pains, headaches, and emotional stress."
