PACIFIC SPIN AND STRENGTH / COMMUNITY WELLNESS
We are building practical community programs that help people understand health information, turn recommendations into real plans, return to movement, build food skills, protect themselves, and enter wellness careers.
We are currently developing program models, curricula, referral pathways, field-experience partnerships, and funding relationships.
The programs are in development. The mission and the gap are not. We are building the work with community, health, and workforce partners who understand where people lose support.
PSS Community Wellness is being developed as the practical layer between information and action.
People are told to move more, improve their food, manage risk, ask better questions, or make a major health change. Then they go home to real schedules, real costs, pain, stress, confusing systems, and no one helping them turn the advice into a week they can actually live.
Our work centers translation, education, coaching, movement, food skills, personal safety, and job pathways.
PROGRAM STATUS
This page describes programs PSS is developing. Program availability, eligibility, and launch dates will be published as partnerships and funding are finalized.
FLAGSHIP PROGRAM
Train culturally grounded health coaches to help African and African Ancestry communities understand health information, navigate care, organize provider recommendations, and turn health advice into practical daily action.
Training is open to people of any race or ethnicity who are committed to culturally responsive service in African and African Ancestry communities.
PSS is developing a modern, non-clinical training pathway around that practical gap: prepare coaches who can sit between information and everyday life without pretending to be doctors, therapists, or dietitians.
The first job is simple: help people understand, navigate, and act.
SOURCE BASIS
Santa Clara County African and African Ancestry Health Assessment and Research Project (2015). The County continues to host the assessment in its historical health-assessment archive.
OUR PROGRAM ARCHITECTURE
Each program addresses a different point where people can get squeezed out: understanding health information, using food skills, returning to movement, protecting themselves, or gaining the training and real-world experience needed for paid wellness work.
IN DEVELOPMENT
Practical nutrition education, diabetes-prevention habits, cooking skills, grocery and label literacy, meal structure, and weekly lifestyle strategies people can realistically use. The goal is not a perfect diet. It is greater food skill, confidence, and follow-through.
IN DEVELOPMENT
Group education and coaching designed to help people return to regular movement after pain, surgery, inactivity, or a major health setback, following appropriate medical clearance when needed. This is movement re-entry and confidence building, not physical therapy or diagnosis.
IN DEVELOPMENT
Practical threat awareness, boundary setting, de-escalation, escape skills, movement under stress, and physical self-protection. Programming will be developed with appropriate violence-prevention and trauma-informed partners so practical training is connected to responsible support and referral.
IN DEVELOPMENT
Career preparation through CPR and First Aid, coaching skills, Pilates and Reformer education, boxing-assistant development, practical shadowing, gym operations, and supervised experience. The goal is a clearer bridge from interest in wellness to competent, paid work.
FLAGSHIP PROGRAM
Santa Clara County’s 2015 African and African Ancestry Health Assessment called for Afro-centric health coaches who could help community members better understand their health, the healthcare process, and provider recommendations.

WHO WE NEED AT THE TABLE
Clinics, health systems, community health teams, and referral partners who see the follow-through gap after the visit.
Trusted organizations serving African and African Ancestry communities and other priority populations who can shape relevance, trust, recruitment, and access.
Health educators, CHWs, cultural advisors, violence-prevention partners, and workforce experts who can pressure-test curriculum, scope, and field experience.
Foundations, public agencies, and institutions interested in health access, prevention, culturally responsive support, and workforce development.
PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS
Pacific Spin and Strength brings an existing San Jose wellness facility, experienced fitness and nutrition professionals, years of hands-on coaching, and a real community operating environment.
We are currently seeking conversations with community organizations, health partners, advisors, practicum and field-experience sites, and funding partners who can help shape, strengthen, and support the work.
We are early enough to listen and experienced enough to build.
