David CashPersonal Trainer, Nutritionist, Health Coach, Boxing Coach, Life CoachI grew up in NYC near Columbia University. Both of my parents are professors. I played HS basketball and have always been a yoga and fitness enthusiast. I went to the University of Michigan where I majored in religious studies. After college I retuned to NYC to become a pre-school teacher. After some deep soul-searching I decided to follow a career in fitness which was a passion for me. I got hired by Equinox and worked there for 4 years. Luckily for me there were a lot of amazing trainers working there at that time and I was constantly asking them questions. Keeping a beginner's mind, ceaselessly asking questions, and being willing to be wrong are still cornerstones of my training, teaching, and learning philosophy. After 4 years at Equinox I decided to branch out and go into business for myself which was one of the best decisions of my life. I recently created "Be Here Now Fitness" to expand my business and more adequately reflect the vibe of my training style. I teach a workshop called "The Art of Slowing Down," because I love helping people breathe and relax and get out of the fight or flight state that so many of us get stuck in. Though I love teaching what I call Yin modalities (as in Yin and Yang) such as Qi Gong, Coherent Breathing, and Yoga...I also love bringing out the athlete in everyone I train using Yang modalities such as the TRX, the Kettlebells, Animal Flow, and Convict Conditioning. I love getting my clients to enjoy the intensity of exercise without making fitness something that must be survived as a means to an end. I absolutely love my job and I am devoted to my clients. I consider myself kind of a life coach, because I tend to guide my clients through the emotional process of getting more in touch with their bodies, as well helping them handle the psychology of eating, moving, and breathing. Work with me if you want your training session to be an open hearted expansive experience. If we are a good fit we will know it and I will put my heart and soul into helping you achieve your fitness and life goals.

Lis and I, seniors feeling the march of time and realizing the need for renewed stretch and strength, and body wisdom, have found in Dave a most serendipitous partner in our bodywork efforts. From the outset, his visits became the first time we have looked forward to exercise not just as being good for us, but as interesting in itself. This is because Dave soon comes to understand, far better than we do, what our bodies are asking for that we by ourselves have trouble hearing, things that affect not only the local issue but connect the work with unanticipated ways we experience our selves. Always on the down-low and sensitive to our limits, Dave also knows how to coax expansive routines into our packed everyday schedules. Marty Washburn and Lis Harris
