Take The Gait Foundations Course

"Thank you for Gait Foundations: Managing Common Presentations of the Foot. I am a podiatrist and found the course very helpful and I will use it during my clinical assessments. Although surgically trained I still want to maximize what patients can do by increasing mobility in the foot and up the chain. Looking forward to more stuff from you."

Dr. Janie Trinh

“I absolutely loved Gait Foundations: Managing Common Presentations of the Foot! This has been a really important missing piece of the puzzle. I already know how important feet are (and frequently see clients who clearly have a foot problem causing issues all over their body) but lacked the understanding of the nitty gritty behind the mechanics of different foot types. This has pulled all of this together for me. I'm looking forward to using this with my clients. Thanks Dr Perez and Dr Conley."

Her book, Walk, hit both the USA Today and Amazon bestseller lists, resonating with readers eager to understand the profound connection between foot function and whole-body health. The book's success has brought Dr. Conley to some of the most respected platforms in health and wellness media, including appearances on The Peter Attia Drive Podcast, Diary of a CEO, Feel Better, Live More with Dr. Rangan Chatterjee, as well as national television features on CBS Mornings and Fox & Friends.

Dr. Conley holds a Doctorate in Chiropractic Medicine and two Bachelor's degrees in Kinesiology and Human Biology. With nearly 25 years of clinical practice, she has worked with professional athletes from organizations including the Phoenix Suns, New York Yankees, Cleveland Browns, New York Giants, and San Francisco 49ers.

She currently serves as Head of Patient Care at Total Health Solutions and Total Health Performance in Lakewood, Colorado—premier clinics known for comprehensive, rehabilitation-focused patient care where she is committed to helping people improve their lives one step at a time.

That same commitment led her to found and lead Gait Happens, an education enterprise leading a paradigm shift in foot health by empowering people worldwide to reclaim optimal foot function through science-backed training and protocols. Gait Happens offers a comprehensive ecosystem of resources — from professional education for practitioners to consumer training programs and personalized consultations with top-of-field specialists — all grounded in research and designed to deliver real, measurable results.

An internationally recognized speaker, Dr. Conley shares her expertise to clinicians and consumers alike through in-person and online lectures on foot mechanics and gait dynamics. Her work spans authorship, mentorship, patent and curriculum development, and the creation of pioneering foot and gait methodologies. Yet at the heart of every lecture, protocol, and patient interaction is the same driving belief: real strength starts from the ground up, and healthy feet are the foundation every body needs to move through life with confidence and ease.

Dr. Perez holds a BS in Kinesiology-Sports Medicine and a Doctor of Chiropractic degree, with nine years spent working alongside patients. She completed her clinical residency in Jamaica, treating Olympic and professional track and field athletes, and is credentialed in a range of movement assessment and treatment techniques, including Selective Functional Movement Assessment, Functional Movement Specialist certification, and Dry Needling. Her focus has always been the whole chain — feet, hips, core — never the foot in isolation.

Dr. Perez is making an impact across the globe — from lecturing to clinicians in Tokyo to consulting professional athletes in Colorado. She's taught at universities, conferences, and clinics on three continents, spanning the United States, Canada, England, Switzerland, Denmark, Belgium, and Japan. Her reach extends just as far off the podium: consulting for professional athletes and footwear companies, being quoted as a foot health expert in Women's Health and National Geographic, and stepping in front of the camera as a consulting foot health expert for the Stupid Shoes documentary.

It's this same drive — knowing what it's like to have pain stand in the way of your goals — that led Dr. Perez to partner with Dr. Conley in creating Gait Happens, offering online courses, foot health tools, and virtual consultations to help people build resilient, healthier bodies from the ground up. In addition to her work at Gait Happens, Dr. Perez, along with her husband, Dr. Mark Perez, owns and operates Kinetic Chiropractic in Lafayette, CO, where she treats patients of all ages, backgrounds, and athletic abilities. Whether your goal is sharper clinical skills or a stronger, more capable body, Dr. Perez is here to help you move forward.
