Although all staff were excellent and I cannot fault anyone, staff worthy of special mention for going the extra mile, above and beyond expectations are: Gugun (Spa/Gym) – an outstanding employee. Very welcoming, courteous, respectful, hardworking. Always greeted you with a smile, nothing was too much trouble and would anticipated guests needs without having to be asked (I loved the ginger tea). Also did a great job with Motion Dynamic Stretching. Tommy (Exec. Lounge) – a true professional. Puts the guests’ needs first. Always kind and interested, whatever the time of day and regardless of how long he has worked during the day.

It’s easy to be skeptical of experts these days as all branches of knowledge are increasingly divided into specialties and sub specialties of sub specialties–leading them to never venture outside their narrow focus of “what my training told me”. What makes Chris so different is that he has transcended the confines of his initial training and has continually broadened his understanding of the human body and movement over decades. His insights and advice about body mechanics have helped me feel stronger and a greater sense of calm after visiting him in his flagship practice in Hong Kong. Stumbling onto Chris’s work really helped me accelerate my own journey towards understanding body integration, posture, mobility–whatever you want to call it. In a world where you are either hitting the gym, working behind a computer or stuck in economy class seating, the trend is towards a more and more unnatural posture and way of being. We need countermeasures.

I met Chris at a Pilates studio in Jakarta. Chris is based in Hong Kong but visits Pilates studios outside of Hong Kong to train Pilates instructors and personal trainers, and also to attend to his individual client’s needs. Chris began in therapeutic massage but has evolved his own theory and practice of therapeutic stretching. I complained of low level but chronic pain in my hip joints. Chris put my hips through a series of stretches to “open” the relevant joints and my chronic pain resolved overnight.

Chris Watts is Chris WOW! Unmatched knowledge, experience and PASSION. Chris and the Motion Dynamics team took a whole-body approach to evaluating my running injury. They treated the root causes (not just the symptoms) to ensure a sustainable recovery. I’ve been searching for a solution to the pain for a long time.…and have finally found it!”

I have nothing but praise for Chris Watts and his team. It was quite an eye opener getting a posture assessment. Once I realize how “unaligned” I was, I was anxious to get started! I’ve done many things to keep my body healthy since I’m an avid tennis player from personal training and physical therapy, to getting adjustments by a chiropractor and acupuncture. There was nothing like the feeling I had when I finished my first stretching session. I got off the table and actually felt lighter, like I could fly off. It’s amazing what all can be fixed by getting level and aligned through stretching and strengthening. I highly recommend getting assessed and get moving correctly.

This man, I was fortunate to meet in HK. He helped me change my life during my endurance running life where I was able to become the first woman from HK to have completed the grand slam of racing the planets 5 deserts. From Antarctica, Gobi desert, Namibia, Atacama and the Sahara I did all endurance races without one injury and I’m still running with no injuries thanks to him. Through his help my posture is better and I walk tall with confidence in life – thanks Chris, you are a genius and your book has been as brilliant as you, Life saver.

Because of a narrowed disc I had been seeing several physiotherapists and other specialists for almost 2 years. After a session with them I would be able to function for a few days and then my back would inflame again and I would need to go back to therapy. When I met Chris he did not look at my troublesome lower back, but he looked at my entire posture: the position of my head, shoulders, hips and feet…all uneven, rotated, and crooked. Chris gave me the knowledge and the techniques to align myself, and stretch and strengthen the muscles that can caused my problems and that are also the key to solve it.
