Breaking Screens: Why I Started This & How You Can Help
Screens are everywhere.
Sports are expensive.
And too many kids are being left behind.
So I decided to do something about it.
If you’ve trained with me for any length of time, you’ve probably heard me say this before: movement changes lives. I’ve lived it, I’ve coached it, and I’ve seen it in the kids and adults I’ve worked with over the years.
But lately, I’ve been noticing something (and maybe you have too). Kids aren’t moving like they used to. Not because they don’t want to, but because the world around them is pulling them in a different direction.
Introducing: Breaking Screens
Breaking Screens is a nonprofit I’ve launched to create more accessible, high-level athletic opportunities for kids where I live, Kent Island. Especially those who wouldn’t otherwise have the chance to train, compete, and grow through sports. We're starting with wrestling, a sport is close to my heart and that teaches grit, confidence, and character in a way that nothing else can.
The mission is simple:
Get kids off screens and into the game
Provide affordable, year-round coaching in our community
Offer scholarships, mentorship, and access to training facilities
And build something positive, lasting, and real
This isn’t just about developing athletes. It’s about helping kids build resilience, discipline, and community. It’s about making sure every child has a chance to feel strong, capable, and proud of what they can do.

How You Can Help: Virtual Bootcamps for a Cause
To raise support for this mission, I’m running weekly virtual bootcamps on Saturdays, and I’d love for you to join. It’s a great way to stay consistent with your own training, connect with the TWTB community, and give back in the process.
✅ The workouts are fun, challenging, and live
✅ You can join from anywhere
✅ All I ask is a small donation, whatever you can give
✅ 100% of the proceeds go directly to Breaking Screens
Whether you're local or tuning in from across the country, this is a way we can move together and make a difference.
Want to participate? You can sign up using Mindbody here.
This Is Bigger Than Fitness
If you're able to join a bootcamp, make a donation, or just help spread the word, I’d be so grateful. We’re just getting started, and there’s a lot of work to do, but I believe in this, and I believe in what we can build together.
