Email Copy (Final as Sent)
Section titled “Email Copy (Final as Sent)”Hey {{contact.first_name}},
Once again, we’d like to welcome you to the Spring 2026 Smart Movement Study Program. We’re looking forward to meeting you at Proto Studio the day after tomorrow, on Saturday, April 4th.
We’ve posted the full Primer assignment schedule to the cohort forum. It covers what to complete before each of the seven sessions, with time estimates so you can plan your week.
Your First Assignment
Before Session 1 this Saturday, April 4 (9:10–10:50 AM), complete Segments 1–2: all 14 lessons through 2.12 Form Practice: Star Form. Total time is approximately 58 minutes.
Only the “Practice” and “Applied Practice Lab” lessons require physical practice. “Theory,” “Concept,” and “Key Points” content can be watched anywhere — during your commute, in a cafe, on a lunch break.
Why This Matters
When everyone arrives having completed the same material, we can use our time together efficiently and build on shared foundations. Participants who follow the assignment schedule consistently come away with the deepest understanding of the material.
We encourage you to use the forum to communicate with each other, pose questions, and share what you’re experiencing. This is your space to connect with your cohort between sessions.
Read the Preparation Guide
We’ve put together a full guide covering what to expect, how to prepare, what to bring, venue details, and other information relevant to your sessions. We recommend reading through it before Saturday.

Participation Waiver
As part of our standard policy, all participants are required to complete a participation waiver before attending. The waiver covers the terms related to the venue, our obligations, and participant responsibility.
We recommend reading through it carefully and completing it in advance so we can get started smoothly on Saturday. You’ll have the option to receive a copy via email upon completion, and we recommend keeping one for your records.
