| A proud member of the Salt River Pima-Maricopa community, functional fitness and wellness coach Thosh Collins draws his inspiration and motivation from his family, his ancestors, and the earth itself. WELL FOR CULTURE, an initiative started by Thosh and his wife Chelsey, aims to reclaim and revitalize Indigenous health and wellness through holistic programming that focuses on achieving a balance of mind, body, and spirit. Developing his abilities and honoring his role as a father, husband, and community leader drive Thosh to seek out new challenges. “Becoming more industrious, more independent, and becoming more reliable - that’s what being better than yesterday is for me.” Part of the WELL FOR CULTURE approach prioritizes training outdoors and connecting to the land at what they call the Earth Gym - a natural environment that helps to strengthen the body and promote physical creativity. “The Earth Gym is a great way to connect to the land and strengthen yourself in a real-world sense.”
