In this episode, Roy sits down with Yossi Montrose, founder of Performa Ball, who has spent more than two decades developing a physical coaching methodology built on controlled instability and stability ball training. Yossi shares how he grew up with a hearing impairment, was bullied from his first day at school, and carried that into a collapsed posture, constant pain and a complete loss of confidence. He describes finding the stability ball at a gym and how it changed his posture, breathing and presence. He also tells the story of learning to regulate himself well enough to stay calm with a lion at a nature reserve in South Africa. Roy and Yossi talk about choosing the right ball size and quality, why schools and offices have swapped chairs for balls, how movement calms children with ADHD, and how sitting on the ball can bring more energy, better sleep and relief from back, knee and shoulder problems. Yossi explains the 3,500 exercises he has created and where listeners can find him.
