Summary & Key Takeaways
At the 2023 Biohacker Summit in Amsterdam, I led a 45-minute Sanctuary workshop on Functional Movement Systems.
We assessed and addressed imbalances with targeted corrective drills, starting with the shoulder.
The summit was hands-on—Matt Maruca of Ra Optics on mindset, Tallow Cosmetics on clean skincare, and AG1 by Athletic Greens on green supplements.
The Confluence of Tradition and Innovation:
As October arrived, Amsterdam buzzed for the 2023 Biohacker Summit. As a devoted biohacker and martial artist, I was excited for a gathering that would open a new chapter in my quest to optimize human potential. The summit was a biohacking haven—curious minds and groundbreaking innovations, all aimed at redefining human performance. Stepping into the energized venue, I felt the collective drive to uncover the mysteries of body and mind.
The Sanctuary: A Realm of Movement Enlightenment:
My moment in the spotlight was leading The Sanctuary movement workshop. This 45-minute session was a dive into Functional Movement Systems, a diagnostic tool for improving key movement patterns. As I guided each corrective exercise, the attendees and I went on a journey of self-discovery, exploring the way the body moves.
I started by pointing out how our sedentary modern lives lead to poor posture, mobility restrictions, and pain over time. But the human body craves motion. We can unlock our full movement potential by assessing and addressing imbalances with targeted corrective drills.
We did focused drills for common problem areas. For example, I showed how stiff the shoulder gets and shared some techniques to release the tension.
The session ended with reflection. I asked attendees to notice how they felt—taller? Lighter? More expansive? My goal was for them to leave connected to their bodies and curious to keep going. The workshop sparked that in many of them.

Fought as a UFC fighter. Researches as a biohacker. And now, sat behind the mic on French combat sports media. During a trip to Nice for the Hololife Summit Côte d'Azur 2026, Tateki Matsuda appeared on JAB Life's "Ground & Talk" — the French-language MMA platform co-hosted by Boxing Squad head coach Aldric Cassata and former RMC Sport journalist Alexandre Herbinet. Sharing the episode with UFC fighter Axel Sola, fresh off a Fight of the Night at UFC London, Tateki discussed his career in the Octagon, the evolution of Japanese MMA, and his mission to bridge combat sports and sports science at the international level.
