We Built the Space We Couldn’t Find.
We’re Sean and Aylin - partners in life and in practice. We are students of Ido Portal, studying with him since 2011 through personal coaching and yearly intensives.
In 2015, we were invited into his official mentorship program, meeting in person multiple times a year. While aassisting international workshops, we also received rare mentorship on how to build a community and guide others in movement practice.
When that program ended five years later, our relationship to our mentor continued to grow. Today, Sean is one of only a few coaches trusted to support Ido’s global student base through his online platform.
We have dedicated ourselves to a lifelong inquiry into what movement truly is, what the body is for, and what it can do. Our studio in Wynwood, Miami is where that inquiry is shared, through teaching, exploration, and community.
Put Movement At The Center
Look around, and you’ll see two extremes: training that’s too scattered to build anything meaningful, or so narrow it can’t transform movement and carry over into life. Everything is taught in isolation, nobody is asking better questions, and most take the dogmas of their practice for granted.
Ido introduced us to a shift in perspective: put movement at the center, let it touch everything in your life. Be curious. Be critical. Invest your time and efforts into your development.
Our Work
Our classes are the result of that shift in perspective. Students don’t come to pass the time: they are busy developing attributes like strength, coordination, balance, control. They achieve new skills, they heal old injuries.
But for those who stay and continue growing with us year after year, something else happens: their perspective evolves, their relationship to their physicality deepens, and new meaning is found in movement practice.
The longevity and depth of their journey is the greatest testimony we could ask for.
What We’re Building
We’re building a school for movement in Miami. Our goal is to gather a community of practitioners and create a reactor where the power of each person’s effort is magnified by the presence of others.
More broadly, we want to elevate the cultural dialogue around physicality, so that deeper connection with the body becomes something people value, seek, and cultivate.
