Private sessions are offered one-on-one or in very small groups and focus on awareness, boundary-setting, and calm decision-making. The work is informed by jiu-jitsu, but is not competitive, aggressive, or oriented toward self-defense as spectacle.

This is not gym-based training. It is not about performance, intensity, or athletic achievement. It is about clarity, adaptability, and nervous system regulation.

Who Seeks Private Instruction

Private sessions attract professionals who value structured learning, discretion, and a non-performance-based approach to skill development. Many work in demanding roles where staying grounded and setting clear boundaries directly impacts their effectiveness.

Common backgrounds include:

  • Leaders navigating high-stakes interpersonal dynamics

  • Professionals in client-facing or caregiving roles

  • Individuals managing workplace stress or boundary challenges

  • People seeking clarity and presence in complex environments

  • Those interested in martial principles without competition

The intention is not intensity, competition, or performance. Instead, private sessions emphasize clarity, sustainable practice, and the development of awareness that serves your actual life.

Sessions are conducted in a quiet, respectful environment. The atmosphere is calm, focused, and designed to support learning rather than proving anything. Physical practice remains accessible—no special fitness level required.

Private instruction works particularly well for individuals who prefer one-on-one learning, have scheduling constraints that make group classes difficult, or want to explore these principles at greater depth than a workshop format allows.

“Attentive to small adjustments and incremental shifts that string together increasing complexities .”

Format and Structure

  • A lit sparkler burning on a dark surface with sparks flying outward against a dark blue sky with clouds.

    Initial Conversation

    We begin with a no-pressure conversation about your interests, context, and what you hope to develop. This helps ensure the work is a good fit.

  • A pair of hands holding a small green fern sprout and dark soil, viewed from above outdoors.

    Each session typically runs 60-75 minutes and includes awareness practice, physical exercises, and discussion. Content adapts to your progress and questions.

  • A hand with red nail polish touching the water's surface, creating ripples in a calm body of water at sunset.

    Frequency Options

    Most people meet weekly or bi-weekly, though monthly sessions also work. Consistency supports skill development, but we remain flexible to your schedule.

  • Cloudy sky with large, dark clouds and a small patch of blue sky visible.

    Ongoing or Finite

    Some individuals maintain a regular practice for months or years. Others work intensively for a defined period. Both approaches are supported.

What Private Sessions Offer

  • A man practicing yoga with a woman on a red mat in a room decorated with colorful paintings on the wall.

    Personalized Attention

    Deeper Exploration

    Private instruction allows for more nuanced work with awareness, boundary-setting, and calm decision-making. We have time to explore principles thoroughly and practice applications repeatedly.

  • A group of diverse people, some in athletic gear, posing together on a grassy indoor field after participating in a grappling tournament, with a large backdrop displaying graphics and text.

    Continuity and Progression

    Regular sessions build on previous work, creating a coherent developmental arc. Skills deepen through consistent practice and reflective conversation over weeks or months.
