pt for meditators.

personal training as an extension of practice.

for when exertion has been a source of difficulty and you'd rather it be a source of enjoyment.
Why this exists

a lot of my meditator friends have a bad negatively-valenced relationship with exertion and exercise. there are other ways of experiencing exertion — and i think meditators are well-suited to finding enjoyment quickly.

in the few times i've worked with meditators, this suspicion has been confirmed.

Beyond meh to yay

beyond the transition from meh to yay, i'm also interested in helping people extend spacious clarity into physical activity. many meditators are very chill on their cushion — but if you ask them to juggle three balls, their spacious clarity might evaporate.

physical activity can become a testing ground for finding space in confusion.
Why it's experimental

i've never done personal training as an explicit extension of meditation practice. for a lot of my remote clients, i'm mostly an accountability partner. that's not what i want to do here.

what i actually care about is learning to love movement, love the body, and for the experience of exertion to be something enjoyable that supports how you want to engage with your life.

What this is & isn't

co-developed & alive
The offer

i want to learn how to help meditators do this efficiently and effectively, but i don't yet have a strong sense of what would be most helpful — what people are most interested in, what the best format is, etc.

so: three personal training slots, at half my usual rate, framed as a collaboration over three months.

~$80/session
~$40/session
half my usual rate · weekly
  • 3-month collaboration
  • weekly live zoom
  • program we co-design
A good fit if…
01 · meh → yay
exercise has been a source of difficulty
and you'd rather it become a source of enjoyment.
02 · gentle on-ramp
you want a gentle way in
to physical practice, from a perspective you understand.
03 · radical extension
you want to extend practice into movement
dynamic, exuberant activity — not just the cushion.

30-minute mutual-fit call. no pitch. i'll pick three based on fit.

ps — not sure if you're a fit? the call is the best way to find out. i'm happy to say no together.
