Aaron’s fitness and longevity coaching approach is supported by his work in the Fitness, Aging, & Stress Lab at UCSF in San Francisco, where he delved into the effects of cortisol on telomerase and other blood marker levels, and whether coaching could support high cortisol individuals in getting the CDC recommended guidelines of exercise.

The hoop classes will cover Ash’s ethereal and dynamic flows, spins and rolls, while the straps classes will be taught by Aaron Koz and CircSci-tested drills and progressions to give students the building blocks for swinging, spinning, switches, drops, and c-shaping.
With two structured workshops per day (one hoop and one straps) and unlimited training time on top of that, you can either take both the hoop and straps sections or choose a la carte based on what suits your fancy!
