With over 25 years in the strength and fitness world, I’ve been lucky enough to learn from some of the brightest minds in strength sports. That path eventually led me to a Be Activated workshop, where I was searching for a way to help bodies worn down from years of lifting maximal weights. What I found was something far deeper: a way to heal myself, to reconnect with a sense of safety in my own system—something I didn’t even realize was missing.

At my very first clinic, Be Activated founder Douglas Heel said something that struck a chord: “Be Activated isn’t just about healing bodies—it’s about healing the world.”

   From that moment, I was all in.

Over the past five years, I’ve found a home in the Aerial community and have been working to integrate Be Activated into that space. My work centers on helping clients identify their movement patterns, understand how those patterns show up in their lives, and create space for real, lasting change.
