I’m a student of the body, a guide for the soul, and a fellow traveler on the path of remembering what it means to be fully human.
To turn toward what hurts, stay present, and listen deeply until something true emerges. That’s what this work is rooted in.
Not perfection. Not performance. But honest, embodied presence. A return to self that’s real, felt, and alive.
In over two decades of working with the nervous system, movement, and mind-body integration. While my haircuts may have changed, one question has quietly shaped everything I do:
Strength & Conditioning? Clients got stronger—but still felt disconnected.
Mindset & Psychology? Created insight—but patterns stayed stuck.
Bodywork? Gave relief on the table—but not in life.
Taoist Arts? Powerful—but too abstract for many to integrate.
Breathwork? Deep catharsis—but the same loops returned.
Every method held a piece of the puzzle.
But none explained why—beneath all the effort—something still held on.
“Fix your posture.”
“Just stretch more.”
“Try this one weird trick.”
Most of it is noise, disconnecting you from what's actually happening within you.
Because after more than a decade working with bodies—real ones, with history and heartbreak—I’ve seen the same truth again and again:
There’s no single method. No magic formula.
There’s just what works for you, in your body, in this moment...
Like realizing pain isn’t always about tight muscles—it’s often about old patterns, trauma and self-protection.
Like the moment you notice stress lives in your spine, or heartbreak in your hips.
Or when you discover that your feet (yep, your feet) are quietly affecting everything upstream.
Or the wild moment you clear a forgotten injury… and a decade of tension disappears with it.
The deeper I go, the more I trust this:
You are the expert of your own body. No technique, practitioner, or protocol will ever know your system more intimately than you do.
The truth is, most of our pain and patterns don’t come from one big trauma—they’re the sum of a thousand moments when our body had to protect, adapt, and survive.
Healing starts when we stop outsourcing authority—and begin listening to what’s already inside. This work isn’t about fixing you. It’s about giving your body the conditions it needs to remember who you are.
That’s what I teach now.
But a way of being with the body—where healing becomes a felt, integrated experience.
Through the 4 Neuro Somatic Pathways, the team at Movement Monk and I help practitioners and self-healers:
Understand trauma & how to work with somatic imprints
Build capacity instead of chasing catharsis
Stay grounded in sessions—not drained
Help others heal through embodying what they teach
This work has been taught in over 50 countries.
Through our online programs, workshops, and membership community, we've supported thousands of clients, coaches, therapists, and health pros. And trained the teachers other teachers turn to when nothing else works.
But this work isn’t about me.
It’s about you—coming home to your body, your power, your practice.
To become the practitioner, the healer, or the fully human being you already are underneath the noise.
