Discover Gnosis

Know Thyself.These words are said to have been inscribed in gold at the the Temple of Apollo at Delphi, in ancient Greece.Those same ancient Greeks valued physical prowess so highly, that they included athletics in their spiritual lives: such as the festivals held every four years at the Sanctuary of Zeus in Olympia.From Shaolin monks to Yogis and Samurai, exceptional people from all cultures have found that physicality is a gateway to something much deeper in the human soul.It is on the shoulders of these, our ancients, our ancestors, that we have developed our philosophy of training.We love sports science and find scientific research and technology an invaluable part of our training. But we are even more passionate about how consistent exercise offers a path to becoming a better human being. As it always has.Training is about so much more than looking good or winning. It is about cultivating commitment. Discipline. Moderation. Balance. Respect. Knowing when to push. Knowing when to yield. Helping others. Helping oneself.So many of our modern ills can be tempered by consistent training. Whatever your struggle, we know that our approach to training can help you tremendously. Especially in the long run: for gnosis, deeper self knowledge, has no end. Rather, it asks us to consistently move in the right direction: which we believe always includes some form of physical training.If any of this resonates with you, feel free to contact us.

Howsit. I'm Justin.I started Gnosis as a passion project to move towards something more meaningful than corporate software development.I believe that physical training is the best way to stay grounded in our modern, disconnected society.

Picture of Justin (just being human)

It has been a life saver for me during many difficult times and I know that it can be the same for you too.My wish is to offer something a bit more personal and in depth than what is often found in the fitness industry. To put it plainly: I'm more motivated by the quality of service I'm offering than by profit margins.I've got more than 25 years of training experience in multiple disciplines[1] under my belt and love nothing more than to share what I've learned with anyone who's up for it.I think outside of the box, am a bit of a perfectionist and believe that training should be enjoyable, safe[2] and empowering above all else.If you're interested in working with me just drop me a message and let's see what the future brings!

[2] I live with chronic injury from over training in the past and feel strongly obligated to prevent this ever happening to others.
