Focus-180 Coaching men and women towards optimizing their health and relationships in congruence with their functional capacities. WHY FOCUS-180?

ABOUT US:

OUR MISSION:

Focus-180 is a holistic platform designed to meet the individual – and group – needs of the 21st century personality; we offer comprehensive programs, courses, workshops and retreats that tackle the modern day juggernaut of career, education, and family. We specialize in programming for diaspora Muslim demographics impacted by complex cultural, socioeconomic and political factors. Optimal health and functioning have comprehensive natures, and that’s why we focus on two core branches: [A] relationship and mental health coaching and [B] vitality coaching. These fuse [1] fundamental mixed martial arts (MMA) training, [2] strength and conditioning training, [3] sound nutrition, [4] lifestyle optimization, [5] rehabilitation and complex trauma work and [6] psychosocial competence training and [7] principled education to offer a complete formula for holistic and thorough transformation. Whether your goals are to enhance your vitality, or establish and navigate relationships competently, we have you covered! Focus-180 seeks to unite people from a broad range of demographics, and align them under the common psychosocial, health and fitness goals we all share. Many people are living with crippling daily dysfunctions, due to the wide-range of societal and environmental problems shaping their lives. We were inspired to launch this platform through increased awareness of these challenges, within our circles and wider communities. We want you all to live functional lifestyles! However, social problems require social solutions and few platforms realize this. Most seek individualistic programs that fail to address the root causes of modern life’s comprehensive problems. To address the challenges of modern relationships and health issues, we have devoted ourselves to an unearthing of primordial and functional capacities, through integrative improvements in [1] knowledge, [2] vitality, [3] relationships, and [4] sound community activism. We place a primary focus on both boys and men, and their relationships and vitality, in an age where society increasingly fails to guide their sound development. Instead, it either neglects them, shames and demonizes them, or misleads them by framing their lives through fallacious ideological narratives. This is important for girls and women too, who depend on the condition of boys and men, and vice versa. Our communities are seeing the spread of seriously dysfunctional attitudes and beliefs towards relationships and health, in both women and men alike. Therefore, our work is restorative and corrective in nature; it’s hands on and integrates both a bottom-up (practice) and a top-down (theory) approach. These are the common goals that unify all of us here at Focus-180, and we strive to serve as the catalyst to help you achieve optimized lifestyles, be your support network, and to inspire resilience and hope in each of you! We wish you all the best for a healthier future; one that allows you to develop yourself to your utmost capability - and unearth your ‘self’. DISCLAIMER:

BECOMING MEN: RUJULA COACHING CLASS

Alhamdulillah. I just finished the 10th class of my program, Becoming Men: Rujula Coaching. We've come a long way at establishing a holistic theory and practice of manhood.

I started from the ground up by establishing an understanding of the proper sources and order of knowledge.

We marry a top-down approach with a bottom-up approach by practising techniques and implementing tools that help each man rewire their nervous system, hone their expression, release disintegrated shame, and build up their frame solidly.

The students have reported tremendous shifts! It's been remarkable and deeply moving to witness.

From making breakthroughs in feeling anxious, disembodied and disconnected, to understanding how important authority (ex. frame and magnetism) is in meeting interdependent needs.

Crippled marriages deprived of respect and intimacy due to inverted gender dynamics, have been revived.

Men who struggled to navigate women, especially in our dysfunctional environment that misguide many, now understand how to relate to women, as men.

Some have even gotten married as a result.

Bonds of brotherhood have deepened, by understanding how to effectively cooperate, with integrity, and follow others who are more competent in any given area, without ego.

Others have made serious shifts in addiction-recovery. Despite developing these addictions through disorderly early childhood environments, brothers have witnessed their capacity to regenerate.

By harnessing the principles of pain and pleasure, and understanding jalaali and jamaali energy, they're realizing how deeply their nervous systems can be healed.

Experiencing more of the world with deeper connection to a wider range of feeling and uninhibited expression, is necessary for relationships to thrive.

Letting go of layers of harmful conditioning, is as important as learning proper form.

Our journeys progress, when we finally understand that. It's been an honour and a pleasure to see this understanding develop in these gentlemen.

If you're interested in a free consultation, you can book one with me.

: Fathers Day

Happy Fathers Day to all the men of our Ummah who give and give and give, whether they're bashed, shamed, or demonized left, right and center, and who are the stewards of their families till their very ends; and to the fathers who have tirelessly tried to be reunited with their children despite entire systems tearing them away and feeding them lies about their fathers.

May the truth of your grace, nobility, majesty and love be made clear on that Day, if it's not here and now, and may your every footsteps be covered in His Gentleness, Mercy, and Provision. May you all be surrounded by wonderful and loving families, and may your bonds with your children be beautified daily. Ameen.

: LEANING IN

Bismillah.

ABOUT US:

The BD-KW Welfare Foundation is a non-profit registered charity in good standing with the Province of Ontario, and was founded by my parents and a number of pioneering community volunteers and activists in our locality. My father is currently the president of the organization. We've raised funds and/or donated medical equipment for numerous projects around the world over the past decade, alhamdulillah. To read more about our organization, see here: https://www.bdkwwf.org/about-us/ and feel free to ask me any questions. We're accountable and transparent.

DONATIONS FOR PALESTINE:

Most recently, the BD-KW Welfare Foundation is raising donations for Palestinian families who have been devastated by the recent onslaught by oppressive Zionist forces and brutal military strikes. These attacks targeted and resulted in numerous civilian deaths, destruction of media buildings, medical centers etc. Any support and relief we can provide is a communal obligation and worthwhile, in-sha'Allah.

COLLECTIONS:

You can contact me privately and I'll share our donation options for you to choose from, if you're interested in contributing. Zionists in Canada (ex. the JDL), have been targeting various fundraisers for Palestine to try and shut them down. We're avoiding their pathetic attempts this way, in-sha'Allah and alhamdulillah 😎🙏🏼👊🏽.

Allah increase y'all! Ameen.

BarakAllahu feekum 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼.

: RUJULA, EMOTIONAL RANGE AND MASCULINE EMBODIMENT WORKSHOP

Bismillah!

Aside from the faux and inconsistent vulnerability of feminist caricatures of "positive masculinity" and often shallow, cultural caricatures of machismo, boys and young men have little else to inform themselves about how to frame their emotions and manhood. Understandably, they struggle even more with actually accessing their full emotional range and embodying their uniquely masculine functions authentically and competently.

Muslim boys and men in the Diaspora, have even more complex problems that weigh on how they frame and experience emotions, due to their displacement from their own Tradition and cultures, and the inevitable identity clashes and sociopolitical pressures they must face and navigate.

The universal imperatives and guidelines of our Deen cannot be divorced from our framing, experiencing and embodiment of emotions. How we are taught to regulate and express these in order to lean into our capacities, responsibilities and even rights---as men, are in need of serious exploration.

That's what my aim is tonight with the brothers over at Western MSA in-sha'Allah!

: MANHOOD BELIEVERS' TRIBE CONFERENCE

After years of online and offline discourse within our communities, on topics related to gender theory and practice, relationships, and ideological controversies that have challenged many -- i3 Institute is teaming together with international speakers, scholars, and/or grass-roots activists to address boys' and mens' issues. These issues have gone without proper framing or treatment for too long, and tremendous suffering and social dysfunctions have festered in the vacuum that exists as a result. By and large, those who have been filling this vacuum, promote imbalanced or outright fallacious takes.

My topic will be centered around an engaging workshop that dives into proper framing and modelling of manhood and masculinity, in light of what we know of the Deen legally, what we know about the world empirically, and what we can infer from these. I'll be examining how masculinities have been constructed traditionally, and then deconstructed and reconstructed in the modern and postmodern contexts, and what Muslim boys and men need to focus on in order to maximize their potency as functional men across social contexts.

: THE ART AND SCIENCE OF TRANSFORMATION

Neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Huberman is a remarkable man who has lived a life of practical wisdom gleaned from serious trial and error. He set forth to overcome his own crippling life-challenges rooted in a lack of focus and structure around a hierarchy of values and meaning.

In this podcast interview with The Rich Roll Podcast, he shares his beautiful anecdotal accounts and scientific insights on the art and science of transformation.

We underestimate our capacity to 'change' and make breakthroughs. We also underestimate the value of those breakthroughs. While our environments and sociopolitical structures remain limiting factors to our own transformative abilities, what we *can* achieve remains remarkable and can be the catalyst for far-reaching consequences societally, too.

: PROCESS OVER OUTCOME

Excessive outcome fixations derail commiting to a sound process. What processes underlie your optimal well-being and performance, across your life?

10/02/2020

We must resist the temptation to project our bad experiences with individuals, based on group identity and our assumptions around narratives, onto every new person we engage, such that we don't demonize them from the get go.

Our Story

OUR MISSION: Focus-180 is a holistic platform designed to meet the individual – and group – needs of the 21st Century personality; we have a comprehensive program that tackles the modern day juggernaut of career, education, and family. We also have programming for at-risk demographics stifled by socioeconomic and political conditions. We emphasize the comprehensive nature of health and spirituality, and fuse [1] fundamental mixed martial arts (MMA) training, [2] strength and conditioning, [3] rehabilitation and trauma clinics and [4] psychosocial competence training to offer a complete formula for personal growth. Whether your goals are to develop athletically, attain improved health, or navigate relationships and social realities competently, we have you covered! WHY FOCUS-180? Focus-180 seeks to unite people from a broad range of demographics, and align them under the common psychosocial, health and fitness goals we all share. Many people are living with crippling daily dysfunctions, due to the wide-range of societal and environmental problems shaping their lives. We were inspired to launch this platform through increased awareness of these challenges, within our circles and wider communities. We want you all to live functional lifestyles! However, social problems require social solutions and few platforms realize this. Most seek individualistic programs that fail to address the root causes of modern life’s comprehensive problems. To address the challenges of modernity, we have devoted ourselves to the long-term self-actualization concept of the “Fitrah” [Arabic for predisposed, primordial, and orderly human nature] and “Polymath”. These concepts refers to the development of a human being, and an unearthing of deep existing capacities, through a conjunction of improvements in [1] knowledge, [2] health, [3] fitness, [4] relationships, and [5] sound community activism. Our primary focus is on males, both boys and men, and their relationships, in an age where society increasingly fails to guide their development soundly. The concepts of “Rujula” and “Futtuwwa” are cornerstones of our work with males. This is important for girls and women too, who depend on the condition of boys and men, and vice versa. However, we have multiple programs that directly address female needs too. These are the common goals that unify all of us here at Focus-180, and we strive to serve as the catalyst to help you achieve optimized lifestyles, be your support network, and to inspire resilience and hope in each of you one pull-up at a time! We wish you all the best for a healthier future; one that allows you to develop yourself to your utmost capability -- and unearth your Fitrah.
