Lizzie – On 30th Dec 2012 (where the name of the company takes it origin) Stu was injured in a vehicle IED whilst serving with the British Military, in Afghanistan. He spent the next couple of years learning to walk again but was left with the unfortunate decision to have his leg amputated after a second accident which compounded his injuries.
It’s safe to say that day changed our lives forever and we have always wanted to make sure it was for the positive, regardless of the journey. As Stuart went through an extensive journey for his physical recovery, we both suffered mentally as a result of it. However, what we learnt during this time has become the basis of the business we now run today, hence the name reflecting this life changing date.
We relocated to Devon a few months ago. Movement, the outdoors and exercise have been at the forefront of our own recovery journey and we want this to be the same for all our clients.
I recently launched ‘The Movement Room’, an online members page where people can access movement-based videos for the Body & Mind. We plan to build on this to offer movement for specific sports, pregnancy and adaptive movement for those with injury or physical limitations like Stuart. It will also offer tips on motivation/inspiration, challenges, events, community networks and retreats, something we hope to offer in the coming years. Our dream for ThreeZero12 is for it to become a go to place for outdoor activities, active weekend escapes and training programs that take a mindful approach to the body.
