It's with great sadness that we celebrate and honor the life of Tom Gentile who passed on Saturday April 4.

Tom Gentile, a lifelong friend, father, ZB practitioner and teacher, Rolfer and Five-Element Acupuncturist, passed away on April 4. Tom was a creative spirit who was passionate about Zero Balancing and who loved sharing ZB. Since training to teach ZB with Dr. Fritz Smith in 2004, he generously offered his time, skill, wisdom and good humor in classes and trainings around the country. So many of us were touched and transformed by Tom's fulcrums.
At the request of Tom family, the Zero Balancing Health Association has created a Tom Gentile Scholarship Fund.
May this fund continue Tom’s wonderful contributions to ZB over the years and spread and amplify the light of ZB throughout the world. We miss him so deeply, yet his light shines on in our hearts.

What you don't know is
infinite
What you don't know
will always be infinite.
Stand in what you know,
open to what you don't know.
