Learning Kinetix has been life changing. This method supported my journey of healing a shoulder injury, and helped me understand my body's own power to heal and optimize. Elisha is a great teacher, with incredible knowledge and wisdom to share. As a practitioner, I feel empowered knowing I have the tools and resources to support others on their healing journey.

While modern material science strips every earthly and cosmic phenomenon of all that is living and holy, pulling it down to the level of current consciousness…
…sensing a divine order standing behind material reality, our objective in the School is to work our way up towards this higher element, transforming ourselves in the process and thereby earning the right and responsibility to steward such knowledge.
The Kingdom of God is within you.
Self knowledge is the path to freedom.
Pain is the call to self knowledge.
“We suffer because with every inner and outer suffering we eliminate one of our faults and become transformed into something better.”
Rudolf Steiner
Our Philosophy
We can solve the chronic pain and disease epidemics of our time, and we don’t need fancy equipment or expensive degrees.
What we need is the courage to accept “what is” (reality), and the willingness to learn from the living realities of our suffering: the body, soul or mind we don’t understand; the relationships that shaped us through childhood, and that we choose in adulthood; the socio-political landscape of our country (and world); the planetary environments we are embedded within; and the cosmic forces that continually work their way into our organism.
Only spiritual insight will help us truly know ourselves - physically, intellectually, emotionally and socially.
We acknowledge a spiritual world that lies directly behind (and interpenetrates) material reality. Insight into this spiritual reality is what will help us develop new methods of healing that are both curative and diagnostic, because…
Experiences of pain and illness are governed NOT by the purely material laws of physics, but by physical-spiritual laws. Inspired by the work of Rudolf Steiner, our mission with the School is to apprehend these laws and use them for healing.
FIRST PRINCIPLES
The nature of the relationship determines what is revealed.
Acceptance of reality is the pre-requisite for comprehending it.
Corporeal reality is the rock upon which all illusions and untruths will shatter.
To understand the human body, we have to know what a human being is.
If you enjoy learning about the nature of reality and you’re ready to cultivate new faculties of perception, you’ll love our community classes.
A Living Science Approach to the Art of Healing
“Insofar as he makes use of his healthy senses, man himself is the best and most exact scientific instrument possible.”
- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Kinetix is a collaborative method of knowing that helps us develop ourselves into finely tuned scientific instruments capable of locating the source(s) of pain and dysfunction in each unique human being. The source reveals the remedy.
The journey of a Kinetix practitioner starts with an awakening of ALL available senses and sense organs. We have at least 12 physical senses, as well as latent spiritual senses lying dormant inside, waiting - like seeds - to be nurtured to life.
Harnessing the powers of all our senses plus the 5 kinetic energies of the planet, we hone ourselves into consciously directed instruments for precise diagnostics and consciously directed healing.
The relational aspect of Kinetix was huge for me. Every other training I've done, and with other bodywork modalities I've tried, I've always just felt like something's being done to me. This allowed me to feel like I was part of a team and that helped translate to relationships. So I learned a lot about how to show up in relationship.

Learning Kinetix has been transformative on so many levels. My communication skills have greatly improved (the main reason I signed up for the course), plus my partner and I are both experiencing relief from chronic pain! I’m so grateful Elisha decided to share this method online. Thank you, Elisha!!

I've used a lot of modalities as a practitioner (I’m a psychotherapist) and I've been on this journey for 20 years now, so I can say that I have experienced a lot of body, mind, tools and techniques, but the work with the feet is, for me like a real revelation.
There’s a grounding effect you can exchange when you're doing it together. So it's a really relational thing, too. When you are stepping you also get benefit, so it's in both directions: stepping and getting stepped on.

I’ve been loving the Kinetix techniques Elisha teaches. I’ve been using them with clients and have already had great success.
I enjoy the holistic approach she takes before getting into the release techniques as it’s an approach I’ve taken since becoming a CHEK Holistic Lifestyle Coach a while ago. I know it's hard for a lot of people to get to the root of their pain and the emotional attachment they have to it but I’ve seen some great progress by just asking the right questions.
I am SO grateful to have found Kinetix! I had suffered from chronic back pain, foot drop... unable to take a flight of stairs without a conscious thought of moving... couldn't golf... couldn't run...my breathing was shallow!
A few short sessions got those injured muscles firing. I no longer have conscious, thinking effort when I take stairs, my golf handicap went back to high single digits and I CAN RUN AGAIN, I CAN BREATHE!!! At 53 years old I feared these activities were over for me.
I have 2 daughters who play collegiate soccer and when they come home from school they almost immediately ask that I "step on them."
What has been most impactful is that it has created healing beyond just me individually. A deeper intimacy with my whole family has blossomed as we step on each other and actively help each other heal! I am forever grateful!!!

When I first worked with Elisha and experienced Kinetix in 2011, it completely changed my life! After spending 23 years feeling limited and trapped in my body from nerve damage in my right arm, I could tell immediately this work was different and that I'd finally found what I was looking for. I was so inspired by my results that I pivoted career paths and learned Kinetix.
Elisha taught me how to understand my body on a deep, intimate level and how to use our incredible fascial system to relieve pain, interrupt patterns that no longer serve us, and re-establish safety in the body. The past 10 years as a practitioner has been such rewarding work!

The difference between Kinetix and other modalities is that it integrates the body, mind and spirit, and the emotions. It's a whole experience of two beings connected together using nature so that's what makes it so powerful.
It uses all the elements in a partnership, instead of deciding that there is a practitioner who knows best and a client who receives in a passive position. It's a partnership, and that makes a big difference for me.

For the first time in my whole entire life, I have no pain in my body at all.
Kinetix really allows me to be centered and on this earth instead of trying to get out of my body constantly. It puts me in a whole different space, right here and right now, and allows me to be present.
You may just be coming in to learn Kinetix as a practice, but to actually be able to feel it in your body and to build that knowing and that trust in yourself is transformational.
~ Stacey
My degree is in psychology and I have been in body work for 28 years. What makes Kinetix different is that it’s a whole being methodology. It's really a method of thinking and approaching the unique human being you’re working with.
When you experience Kinetix there’s this feeling of, “I can do it. We can do it together.” There’s opportunity for partnership, where you're co-creating versus working with someone passively on a massage table.
Before I came to the immersion there was a part of me that believed that at 52, with pain continuing to increase in multiple areas of my body, that I was just going downhill and it was going to continue to go downhill now. And now that's just not the reality I live in anymore.
After experiencing Kinetix, I highly recommend it for both client and practitioner. This is what I’ve been looking for, for a long time!
~ Lisa Barney
I took a leap of faith joining Elisha's Kinetix Practitioner Mentorship. Even though my own health challenges have prevented me from working on anyone, I have found great value in the things I have learned.
Specifically, learning about nervous system patterns and how they can reflect in fascia has helped my healing journey a lot.
Elisha's pain philosophy, her insights about the nervous system and the way we're connected to our world and to each other (the very fact that Kinetix requires a partner, with human connection)--it all resonates. If it resonates with you, I recommend taking the leap of faith, too.
With Kinetix you really have to meet yourself where you're at and you really have to bring yourself to your edge. And in that moment, you can make a decision with your body to transform. For example, somebody is stepping on you with their full body weight on your adductors, and you think in your mind, “There's no way that I'm going to be able to move my leg up even a half inch, let alone all the way up in a marching position,” and then you make a choice and you do what you thought was impossible! So to be able to experience that, understand that and have that in a very felt sense and get a result is just unbelievable.

How The School Works
LIVE Community Zoom Classes
- open to the public (free)
Our community tier is for seekers of scientific and esoteric knowledge about the whole human organism - body, soul and spirit, and explored in the context of our whole environment: society, planet and cosmos.
Esoteric simply means “hidden” - because this knowledge is invisible to our everyday senses. To apprehend this knowledge, we must develop latent senses such as living thinking, imagination and intuition, and nurture them to life.
Our mission in the community tier is to ask, and attempt to answer, two core questions:
1) What is the human being?
2) Who am I?
Community classes are free to attend. Access replays by joining the community tier with a monthly donation.

Kinetix Immersions
- participatory science | in person learning
02
Awaken all of your senses. Strengthen your capacity for witnessing “what is.” Harness the power of the 5 kinetic energies and learn how to use them for healing and regeneration. This is the beginning of your development into a finely tuned scientific instrument that is capable of locating sources of pain and dysfunction in yourself and clients.
KnT1 starts with a 6 week online preparatory course (with an online-only option), followed by a 7 day immersion in Boulder, Colorado. It is for you to work on yourself, and is the starting place for all practitioners.
We’ll use partner fascia release and the 4 living sciences to locate the source of pain, degeneration and illness in every unique individual. Walk away equipped with the knowledge and skills to guide yourself through processes of healing, regeneration and transformation.
Registration opens soon!

The School
For those with an earnest desire to cultivate their capacity to know truth while navigating health and relationship challenges with wisdom, the School will take you on an adventure from the internal terrain of your own body, mind, soul and spirit, to - if you choose to take this knowledge beyond yourself - building a thriving private practice guiding clients to self knowledge, healing and freedom.
Using the Kinetix methodology and living science as a way of knowing, we are pioneering a modern renewal of the healing arts with four human sciences:
1) Living chemistry
2) Living physics
3) Living psychology
4) Living pneumatology
These four sciences provide the knowledge needed to resolve the chronic pain and disease epidemics of our time, by giving us insight into the nature of:
1) Pain and freedom
2) Degeneration and regeneration
3) Trauma and transformation
4) Sickness and health
Coming in Fall 2025
The story of Kinetix
For over 8 years, Elisha couldn’t run or hike without debilitating knee pain - and no one could tell her why, or how to resolve it. These two activities represented freedom to her, so she wasn’t about to give up. After dozens of teachers, mentors, practitioners and peers tried - and failed - to use fascial stretching to help her, in June of 2011 Elisha asked her best friend Jess if she would learn to step on her and help her run again.
A life-changing process ensued. Within weeks, Elisha was hiking and running again without pain, or fear of pain. Without intending to, Jess taught Elisha the first principle of living science: “The nature of the relationship determines what is revealed.” Where everyone else had failed, Jess succeeded. Why? Because she was there out of love and devotion to her friend. This energy of love and devotion became Elisha’s guiding light for her private practice.
The Kinetix method was born that summer. With Jess’s help, Elisha was able to map the fascia in her whole body, and then map those fascia patterns to her gait while hiking and running. She also began noticing how her thoughts and emotions influenced her behavior towards these activities and her body; and how fear of pain creates more pain, while curiosity showed her its true nature as a benevolent messenger.
Today, Kinetix has attracted a worldwide audience and Elisha is on a mission to create a new model of learning for practitioners in the healing arts; one that centers intrinsic motivation as the basis for every step towards new knowledge and new skills. As a teacher, Elisha empowers students to source authority from within, question everything she says, and prioritize learning from the source: the human being itself.
