Do any of these sound like you?
Resolve
-
You’re lugging around chronic aches, pains, or injuries that no specialist seems to solve.
-
Your mind won’t switch of. Your thoughts constantly race. Focus feel scattered?
-
Do screens consume more of your life than you’d like to admit? Does time without them causes you angst?
-
Have your days blurred into weeks, and you can’t quite remember where the time went?
-
Relationships feel strained, or less alive than you know they could be.
-
You’ve worked hard, achieved milestones, maybe even reached the “top”… but inside, there's an emptiness that you can't fill.
-
Deep down, you sense that life could be richer, more grounded, more whole.
-
Are you a seasoned athlete, coach or business person who is wanting a sharper mental edge?
If even one of these hits home, I want to talk to you.
Aim your attention. Train your body. Change your life.
My coaching services focus on meditation, movement, health, and lifestyle management to help people live the best lives they possibly can.
What happens when you combine the discipline of a Marine, the knowledge of a personal trainer, the lifelong drive of a martial artist, and the quiet, calm presence of a monk?
Me.
I’ve spent decades learning how to steady the mind and strengthen the body—not just for myself, but to help others do the same. Nothing brings me more joy than watching someone's eyes light up when they discover things about themselves they hadn't noticed before.
My mission in life is simple: I help people. And I mainly help people by showing them how to build bodies that feel good to live in, and minds that can stay calm and focused when life gets hard. I teach people how to pay attention, to really listen inward, and to trust what they sense—so they can care for themselves better and move through the world with more confidence and determination. More resolve. <---See what I did there?
When you feel good, you do good. And when you do good, that goodness spreads. If I can spark even a single person’s transformation, then I’ve already done what I came here to do.
Services
At Re/zalv/, everything comes full circle. My job isn't to hand you a list of exercises, mindfulness tricks and then collect a pay check. Not at all. I stay with you every step of the way, helping you to radically rewire how you live, think, and move. Every program, every session from me is custom-built, based on your feedback, and your progress. I use a number of formats and mechanisms to deliver my services, each one dependent on the client's needs.
How it Works
-
90-Day Commitments: I work in three-month cycles. Why? Because real change takes time, and commitment is the first step. When you work with me, I give you my all. I ask for at least half as much in return.
-
Virtual or In-Person Training: Based on availability. If you're within 25 km of Bridgewater NS, I can come to you or you to me. Living in another timezone, country or location? Virtual training sessions are also an option.
-
Personalized Design: Every plan is built from the ground up, based on your feedback, your progress, and your goals.
-
Ongoing Support: Weekly or bi-weekly calls (phone or video), assignments, and checklists to keep you moving forward.
-
Flexible Frequency: Everything is adjusted to your needs, but I will not hand-hold. You’ll get guidance, not excuses.
-
Access to the Re/zalv/ App: All your training, tracking, and communication in one place. Built and maintained by yours truly.(Coming Soon!)

Areas of Expertise
Who Am I?
I’ve spent the last 23 years immersed in the world of strength, movement, and discipline. My first taste of real training came at 16, and I haven’t stepped away since. By 21, I was in the U.S. Marines, wearing the stripes of a Sergeant and learning what it means to lead others . I had the honour of protecting a president at Camp David, as well as being an infantry squad leader. I served 2 deployments.
8 solid years of service was enough, and so I headed to Canada. Here I deepened my studies with an Associate’s Degree in Criminal Justice and a Bachelor of Science in Health and Wellness. Since 2012, I've been a bouncer, a carpenter, and off-gridder, a father. But my passion has always returned me to working professionally as a fitness, lifestyle and health coach. No matter where I go, I find myself helping people build bodies that can carry them through the hard days, not just look good in a mirror.
Martial arts have been part of my DNA for as long as I can remember. I earned my black belt in Tae Kwon Do at the age of 15, and have been training and teaching various martial arts ever since. I teach a blended system, not bound by any system, but instead, like all of my practices, taking samples from each one, and then giving my students or clients the ability to focus on which style appeals to them the most.
While being an devoted Martial Artist, I absolutely detest violence. I teach, and train in the Arts, not for the sake of hurting another person, but for the beauty and embodiment of the movements. Second to that, to be able to defend oneself or another from harm is something I see as an absolute necessity in today's world. Wanna learn?
For the past 13 years, I’ve been equally devoted to meditation and awareness training. This path, while self-guided has given me a wealth of perspectives from which to view the topics I'm passionate in. Not bound by any one system, I take the best of what's worked for myself and my clients. I have always cherished direct experience above dogma, and every insight I share comes from years of experimenting, observing, and applying these practices in the real world.
When you work with me, you don’t get cookie-cutter routines or one-size-fits-all advice. You get a lifetime of training distilled into something personal, practical, and alive. My goal is simple: to help you know yourself — body, mind, and spirit — and then to grow yourself, in all ways.
