Now, let us cover the whys. I will give you the short and the long version. The whys evolved from individual to collective (our whys) within a few years. I founded HighOnYoga9 in 2020, as this is when for many it became evident that we needed an improved and modernized approach to personal training and private coaching. Most solutions out there continue to rely on a rigid approach that fails to cater to individual needs and capabilities. Others lack a strong foundation to support long term progress, or require too much time or financial resources. In contrast, we empower you with the tools and knowledge to move forward with confidence. Our solution is in helping you to build a strong foundation in an efficient and sustainable way, unlocking continuous success and personal freedom. To serve you best, we apply our unique and all-embracing, holistic approach, considering all aspects of your life; Whether you want to excel in your athletic performance, career or personal life.

If you would like to continue exploring, keep reading! I am the face of HighOnYoga9, but I am fortunate to be able to lean on the experience and expertise of great people around me. Our whys gravitate around the core belief in the importance of having solid fundamentals and how they relate to the human body and mind. We believe in having a holistic approach that does not separate the different parts of us, but is rather focused on uniting them in a balanced way.
When I started supporting and mentoring people in the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic I had no idea where this journey would take me. Writing this story would be impossible without you, so thank you for playing your role! Little did I know that later I’d be launching a platform with a blog and training programs on demand; offering services to people around the world. Sharing this path of self-discovery, personal, and collective evolution makes the journey truly remarkable. When the pandemic exploded, my whys were about my own process. It was a confusing time, we had to take everything day by day… Do you remember? “March 25th 2020, X new deaths and Y new positive cases”.. and then the same storyline the next day, and the next day. Going on for weeks, months, a year! One of the most challenging years in the history of humanity. After seeing and experiencing the implications of Covid on a large scale, I was no longer able to stay focused on myself — from then on it became about our whys.
Friends and colleagues pushed me to help with keeping in shape — both physically and mentally. The isolation created by work from home and social distancing took a toll on many. I was able to navigate it well so that I could be of service. But despite the chaos in 2020 and 2021, we can see one positive — the disaster forced us to set our priorities straight. Unsurprisingly, family is the number one priority for almost all of us. I believe this is not only because we love them and they love us so much. It’s not only about sharing the wholesome moments in good and bad times. It’s more than that, family is where everything starts — it’s the foundation we all need to learn and grow. But many of us have not been provided with solid foundation.
So I invite you to ask yourself: how many people navigate life with weak fundamentals? How about you? For example, during the pandemic, due to the isolation, we witnessed the trend of individuals setting out to execute movement routines that caused more harm than good. These trends still continue today. This highlighted the need to revisit the approach to personal training and coaching. That’s where we came in, relying on our three main principles — safety, simplicity, and efficiency. If this resonates, click here to get started!
