I was born and raised in California. While praying one evening, I heard a whisper in prayer to move to Texas, and did so about a year later. I’m a Clippers fan, a 90’s hip hop fanatic, and I’ve been a weightlifting and fitness enthusiast since 2016. The gym has been a place that has allowed me to encounter God regularly. One of those encounters led me to become friends with two brothers from the same gym I went to, and they would later make me an ambassador for their local supplement store, “the Supp Shop”. My goal with this workshop is to bring everyone around me closer to God through exercise, and to send them off feeling empowered. “We are body and spirit, and we experience the need to translate our feelings externally. We must pray with our whole being to give all power possible to our supplication.”-Catechism 2702
