Update: 2025-03-02
Description
Andrew Telfer and Gill Erskine, are the founders of WildStrong bring fun, play, and human connection into outdoor physical activities.
They’re tackling a huge gap in the fitness industry is not engaging, the 85% of adults who don’t want to step into a gym or engage in traditional fitness programs. Instead, they offer a refreshing, non-competitive way for people to explore movement, build confidence, and adapt to life’s physical challenges.
In this episode, we dive into:
- Andrew’s shift from personal training and a background in CrossFit to public health
- Jill’s journey from a non-athletic background to leading outdoor movement groups
- How WildStrong fosters practical movement skills over rigid "correct" techniques
- Their Nature Moves program for older adults is built around playful, task-based activities that emphasize social connection and practical movement skills, helping participants gain confidence in navigating their environment and adapting to whatever life throws their way.
