Primal Play™
Primal Play METHOD
«The most popular day to exercise is ‘tomorrow‘.
Let’s face it exercise can be perceived as boring, it can be difficult to motivate ourselves. We know the health benefits, we know we would feel better afterwards, but why can it feel so awful even thinking about exercise. Let alone doing it?
We need to consider alternative approaches—I sincerely believe that the Primal Play Method is one solution that might just get us there.»

WHAT IS PRIMAL PLAY?
Darryl Edwards developed the PRIMAL PLAY METHOD™ to inspire children and adults to make activity fun while getting healthier, fitter and stronger in the process.
Primal Play™ is many things. It’s a feeling about how we live our lives. It’s a way of orienting yourself in the world. It’s a super creative and always evolving exercise and movement program. It’s a social and community creating experience. It’s a way of rediscovering something deep and essential and exhilarating about ourselves as human beings. And it’s Darryl Edward’s life passion.
That’s a lot. And the coolest thing about all of it? It’s all FUN.
Everything about Primal Play from the interesting, even outlandish movements (carry your friend, anyone?), to the supporting science of play psychology, exercise physiology and evolutionary biology.
The people involved in it, and the many health benefits you get from doing it all centres around this powerful idea that humans benefit most from activities that are pure, raw, all-out, rewarding fun. We move, we laugh, we explore what our bodies can do in the world around us.
When we have fun we get the same endorphin kick people get from long endurance exercise, except we get that kick instantly, constantly, and much more intensely. When we have fun it feeds our brains and our emotions. When we play we kick our minds into imagination mode, and we tap into that powerful charge we get from positive experiences with other happy people.
Primal Play movement gives us the benefits of functional fitness training, but doesn’t stop there. It takes us beyond exercise. It takes us into fun.
What other health program can say that?
“Play keeps us vital and alive. It gives us an enthusiasm for life that is irreplaceable. Without it, life doesn’t taste good.”
WHAT IS «PRIMAL»?
There is a strong push in the health community to learn more about our basic internal programming, to discover exactly what we are designed to be by our DNA.
One way of finding answers about our design is to look back to how we lived in other times, before civilization came along. To search for our more “primal” ways of living, and perhaps find some answers there.
We do this most easily by studying people who never have created cities or civilizations. We look at the tribes that still exist that never changed from how all humans lived thousands of years ago.
The primal world is much more complex and interesting that the simple ways we think of it. Primal people danced, celebrated, competed, sprinted, hunted, walked, dealt with nature and played. In incredibly creative and fascinating ways.
You can still see of our human past in what we do today. Music, drumming, hiking, climbing, camping, fishing, swimming, gardening, sports, laughter, even dancing in dance clubs, all tap into the primal part of us.
And that’s because we all still carry with us our original primal programming. Tapping into those basic human directives gives us benefits we can’t even begin to understand yet. But if you do it right, if you find your connection to the world and your body in the world, you know it. You feel it in your bones.

I’M DARRYL EDWARDS, AND I WANT YOU TO PLAY.
I Play.
A pretty simple little statement, “I play.” But it literally changed my life!
I quit sedentary many years ago and transformed my health through movement. “I Play” took me from sitting for hours on end as a computer programmer, for investment banks around the world into a career helping people rediscover the joy of getting healthy through movement. “I Play” transformed me from a sedentary guy whose health was slipping away with each passing year, into someone whose body is ready for pretty much whatever I throw at it. “I Play” has taken me around the world. I’ve opened my mind to exploring countless new ideas, written books, and changed how I feel when I open my eyes every day of my life.
You want to see the true power of play? Just look at how my life has changed.
I’m Darryl. I’m happy. And I’m healthy. Because I play.
