Ido Portal joins Aaron for a raw, unconventional interview you won’t hear anywhere else.

Together, they’ll explore how tension, ego, and identity live within the body, and how movement can be a powerful path for inner transformation. He and Aaron talk about postural patterns, personality masks, emotional awareness, and how quieting internal "noise" can help reconnect with truth. They also cover breathwork, stillness, and redefining strength through practice, not performance.


OUR GUEST

Ido Portal is a practitioner, teacher, educator, and consultant, working with a transformation and evolution-based approach through the medium of Movement in its various forms—physical, emotional, and mental. Ido is responsible for creating and promoting the worldwide phenomenon called Movement Culture, a modern paradigm shift in how humans perceive physical practices. This approach allows for a potent transfer of knowledge, tools, and methods across disciplines and expands the perception of movement beyond isolated terms like 'Athlete,' 'Dancer,' 'Fighter,' and 'Sports Person.'

Ido's primary focus remains is his own practice, with secondary emphasis on spreading his teachings to an ever-growing community of practitioners worldwide. Over the years, Ido has collaborated with professional athletes from the MLB, NFL, European Champions League soccer teams, as well as actors, dancers, musicians, Olympians, UFC fighters, corporate giants, the film industry, and government bodies.
