the holistic ape

Written by Josh Blakely | Owner of The Holistic Ape

The Holistic Ape was born out of morals and values

that were broken and ignored. Our company started out as ‘Ape Movement’ which sold physical products like foam rollers and yoga blocks. It was a way to make money fast and travel the world. It was supposed to be an amazing selling machine. We discovered that was everything we did not want to be. It took us a patent infringement and a lot of money to learn that. The mistakes that brought us back to our true selves.

Our mission is to help you achieve optimal health and happiness. We believe that we are the most well-rounded health coaching team in the Inland Northwest.

We are Josh Blakley and Taylor Abrahamson, the cofounders of The Holistic Ape. We sit alongside our other coach, Jake Casey. You may know all of us from dipping in the lake throughout winter doing the Wim Hof Method.

Taylor is our Women’s Integrative Nutrition Health Coach. Her passion is to help women whose doctors don’t seem to listen to their needs. She helps women who have lost their intuition with their menstrual cycle and have been put on birth control. Women who want to find what spirituality means to them and create grounding rituals. She also helps women navigate confusing nutrition advice. What women want is to be heard, healed, and feel confident in their bodies.

Josh is the only Chek Practitioner in Idaho! He’s a Functional Health Coach with a special twist! He has the ability to help you from a whole-body perspective like focusing on what is causing your gut dysbiosis, physical ailments, postural imbalances, and poor nutrition. His background in these areas of movement such as Anusara yoga, and parkour gives him the ability to work with all levels. A Chek Practitioner is usually the last professional help that people end up needin because the practice is heavily valued in the root cause of illness.

If you’re reading this you probably know Jake! He is certified through the Kettlebell Kings, On-nit Academy,

Living.Fit as a Kettlebell Specialist and most recently certified as a Fascial Stretch Therapist. His passion is helping people connect to their breath, and stretch safely, he is a wizard with words; specifically teaching you how to speak to and about yourself. He uses tools like the kettlebell, battle ropes, and steel maces to help build strength within his clients. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
