Jay believes that one should train intentionally, not habitually (in the words of Naudi Aguilar). He focuses on postural alignment and restoration while taking into consideration how gravity affects the alignment of the human body. Misalignment can produce negative effects such as joint pain, fatigue, chronic pain, depression, anxiety, and sleep disorders. Jay’s training specializes in connecting meridian lines within the sling systems and training elasticity in the fascial webbing of the body.  He was athletic growing up, playing football and wrestling in high school, where he also coached wrestling.
