~~~AWESOME TEXAS TEMPLE HOME CLINIC~~~
**A POP-UP SHOP EXPERIMENT EXPLORATION EXPERIENCE LANDING... IN AUSTIN TEXAS!**
Hello & thank you for your time checking out what I’m thrilled to embark on. Whether it’s through a donation of any size or simply sharing this with friends, every bit of support counts and is deeply appreciated!
Clinic & Community Practitioner to catch you up on where I’m coming from for 8 years I was in one location in Toronto where I among other things taught, practiced, learned, & lead many things including what is called the practice and philosophy of “Healthy Healing Humble Happy Heroic Humorous & Harmonious Human Talk Touch Movement & Listening” the skillset and service of the “Physical Application of Loving Kindness” for 100s of students/practitioners to do and for too many clients to count receiving it.
From Clinic to Questing & Pilgriming The Impact of a Pandemic For New Directions Questing Pilgriming & Client Clinic Event Support Touring
In many ways the "pandemic" (or as I like to call it, the "pandemonium") upended and changed life.
For me personally on my path in many ways the "pandemonium" pushed me towards new horizons & challenges & adventures on a pilgrimage of quests for introspection creation service and growth.
I truly am blessed to have loved doing and have been doing since the pandemic now after 3 yrs of being a person on a pilgrimage of serving as a “traveling thai massage monk man of service”.
From Pilgrim Questing to Practicing Landing My Self & My Service to Belonging in Austin Texas
I’ve been finding myself often in the last 1/2 year in my heart playfully with persistence and both patience AND impatience authentically saying or praying something like “yo god man creator dude will you please tell me to land and stay somewhere for me to do my work and have a place again and also in ____ & ____ up-leveled ways?”
Being led by the decision to establish again a permanent dojo base training space home and from which to offer awesome services & teachings to land in.
I have had some friends and clients and connections welcoming me here already.
And with all of that am transformationally transitioning to making a mark beginning with this the “AWESOME TEXAS project” location temple dojo training project.
Services and events here will be the result of many collaborations as a culmination of my time and training in Toronto, and the pilgrimages & the quests, & the requests & responsibilities we have as a testament to and a stance for the power of empowering human connections with an ecology of tools perspectives & practices as a home to house me and my mission and services for clients & students who are already here or those to visit me for a session of course.
The Awesome TX Project: A Vision of Helpful Healing Empowerment Growing & Practicing Playing
This GoFundMe campaign is an opportunity to be a part of establishing a training and healing and empowerment center home in Austin, where I can continue to share the gift of bodywork, embodiment, holistic healing, and community events.
1st PHASE
the START a launch for the “AWESOME TX Project” the first funds will support:
–Kickstarting the Journey ($2000) the START is the cost of a 3-month local training networking & connecting event to lay a foundation of valuable connections led by a local leader Preston Smiles who I’ve grown fond of as a friend and mentor in it we are a cohort of 30 men doing a sprint with support via in-person meetups, deep coaching, and deep accountability for a 90 day reaching goal, for me to establish myself to have a home in Austin as a practitioner a business and a friend.
I have more of the details of what the 90 day sprint is for in the STRETCH GOAL (see "STRETCH GOAL" section bellow) but before that, one step at a time, THIS IS IT, any amount towards that ($2000) will be leveraged and very thankfully helpful to me and those who I get to serve here too.
aaaaand maybe… hmmm… maybe
Maybe because you know me or maybe because you read what I've wrote about what I’m doing and what I have done and am up to and now you’re now wondering “really is that it Joey?” or “is there anything else to the plan man?” and you’re feeling able & generous wanting to see whats up wondering “what else is there to contribute to and where is this supposed to lead, where’s it going, what’s the end game value joe bro?” If so read on bellow…
Are you curious to maybe get to be an early supporter and a part of the broader vision & creation to see behind the curtain of the vision here? Again if so read on bellow…
2nd Phase
⬇️...STRETCH GOAL...⬇️
Locally I have use of clinic location(s) to bring clients to & often I go to client’s homes to START from at my regular price and with a calendar that I’m not yet in full control over choosing working from where I am... leading me too the... 2nd FUNding Phase!
In the 2nd phase the STRETCH GOAL is to fund any amount or item in my GoFundMe for the 90 day goal of the initial program to have the following in order to be more of service, I haven't got it all priced out and I can thrift some of it as well as buy used and I can construct some of it too.
Either way, you can read further what some of the general expected costs are and what the equipment sets are and how it will be used to make sense for the services and business and you can already as or when or if you feel inspired start to assist with funding this AWESOME TEXAS project.

How funding the items will support the project & the business
Each addition of the equipment itemized for this will naturally add to the value of the immersive sessions in ways that serve each person according to their needs & potentially selling them on buying the equipment through my connections and affiliate links:
–2 high-quality Thick Thai Massage Mats (see pictures), Blankets, Sheets, and Proper Bolster Pillows will add to the air of classiness of having proper pretty and useful equipment
–A blow up hot tub because it’s body is soft is good for the possibility of having an extra element of bodywork as “watsu” (water based bodywork session)
–A barrel sauna is an awesome addition and an option for post training for communicating and attracting
–The Russian Pravillo is a very fun & a powerful tool to wrestle with and to be stretched and engaged
–Wall & Ceiling rails and anchor points will serve as places to hold onto for supported standing forward fold bodywork to be able to pull on and work out with too
–2 sets of Maces & Clubs & Kettlebells & Stick Mobility & Torsion Straps & Bosu Balls & Para Balls for working out together and engaging together
–Basic furniture & furnishing & decor & lighting for the live in Dojo to be a place to live in to take clients and guests in to enjoy as guests potentially attracting them and/or inviting them to join in a session for themselves and invite their others to enjoy it too
