In this powerful episode, Ken Baldwin chats with industry legend Ian O’Dwyer (OD)—educator, movement specialist and founder of Feel SOMA. From a childhood shaped by horses to transforming the way we think about fitness and ageing, OD dives deep into what it really means to train for life. They unpack the importance of observation, individualisation, coaching mindset, emotional connection—and why play might just be the most important training tool we’ve forgotten.
Plus, OD gives us a glimpse into what he’s bringing to the Healthy Ageing Summit 2025 on 29–30 May, including new tools, powerful insights and a whole lot of fun.
