The Team

Sifu Marcus Lovemore - Director & Founder

Sifu Marcus Lovemore began his meditative practice at the age of seven and started studying Martial Arts at the age of nine. He began seriously training in martial arts and human performance at the age of nineteen in 1990. In 1995, Marcus was made a Sifu in Jeet Kune Do under Chris Kent. Early on in his martial arts, meditative and human performance studies, he understood his role as a teacher and devoured science and technology to find safe ways to maximize human performance. One of the most efficient and effective ways he discovered was through nutrition. Since then, he has trained everyone from couch potatoes and business professionals to weekend warriors and professional athletes with spectacular results that transcended their personal goals.

In 1998, he was diagnosed with end-stage renal failure, a “terminal” and “incurable” kidney condition, and according to Western Medicine one that would destroy his athletic lifestyle and would likely result in his early death after enduring seven to ten painful years of dialysis. Fortunately, Sifu Marcus instead used this opportunity to extensively learn about western and alternative medicine. With new found insights, he performed medical “miracles,” saving himself from many near-death experiences using the most unconventional techniques.

Sifu Marcus has expertise and specialized training in the following: external & internal martial arts, nutrition, organic raw & cooked culinary therapy, Weston Price diet, the primal diet, physiotherapy, elite physical training, biochemistry, kinesiology, psychology, meditation, herbology, naturopathy, osteopathy, Maori body-work, acupressure, assisted yoga, energy work, Qi Gong, physics, chemistry, biology, anatomy, relationship coaching, conflict resolution, graphic arts & illustration, NASM certified personal training, and tantra.

Sifu Marcus’s expert knowledge and experience in nutrition, healing and energy management has helped thousands of people excel far beyond their cognitive, emotional, physical, and life challenges. Sifu Marcus is an optimum human-performance expert who is the director of Mastery Training Systems, which he founded fifteen years ago.

Sifu Marcus Lovemore’s vast expertise and experience make him an ideal partner to collaborate with Katie Strand’s specialized talents to create a truly cutting-edge, sustainable wellness center like CWC. Both Sifu Marcus and Ms. Strand strive to create world peace. While this seems to be a lofty cliché and unattainable goal, we believe that change happens one person, one client, and one miracle at a time. This is what CWC is all about creating a peaceful and healthy world in each client and every moment.

Katie Strand - President & Co-Founder

Katie Strand has practiced, studied and taught personal, spiritual and psychological growth techniques, garnering a master’s degree in Spiritual Psychology and certifications in Hypnotherapy, Yoga, Pilates and personal training. Ms. Strand is also an Emmy-nominated documentary film producer, worked on the Emmy-winning Nanking, and has worked with Emmy and Academy award-winning filmmakers in her tenure as a film and television producer, manager, and camera operator.

Ms. Strand’s studies at the University of Santa Monica in Spiritual Psychology were precipitated by over ten years of personal study in psycho-spiritual development and techniques. Her studies included many various trainings and workshops, for example: More To Life and the Clearing Process, Warrior I & II Intensive Residential workshops, and extensive Yoga training. Ms. Strand has taken these core-training experiences and developed her own counseling and therapeutic techniques like Theta Gestalt. In Theta Gestalt, Ms. Strand coaches people into a theta state, a brain-wave state that connects people to a universal consciousness or God, and has them communicate directly with their higher consciousness for clarity, direction and healing.

Ms. Strand emphasizes the mind-body-spirit connection for herself and all of her clients and students. The philosophy of training for growth with mind-body-spirit simultaneously is that all aspects of the individual are connected, as all things are connected, and one area cannot grow and thrive without acknowledging and developing that integral connection. This is where Ms. Strand’s gifts lie, in making that connection and illustrating it to help others to expedite their ultimate healing and growth.

Ms. Strand will combine her vast experience in film producing and managing, physical fitness, spiritual and psychological growth to oversee and guide the staff and clients of CWC to create a fluid and effective environment for the individual and community to flourish. 

Ms. Strand’s combined experience in producing, managing, physical fitness, spiritual and psychological growth make her uniquely qualified to oversee and lead a wellness center like CWC. Ms. Strand’s expertise, combined with the vast experience and knowledge of co-founder Sifu Marcus Lovemore create the ideal leadership team and healing synergy for a cutting-edge, comprehensively sustainable wellness center that will bring clients to their highest healing potential.

Green Society  

Their efforts will result in building temporary and/or permanent Intentional Communities, that are owned and managed by the Green Society Ministries.  These Eco Villages will showcase permaculture design, renewable energy technologies and green building techniques that facilitate an educational experience for all visitors on a tangible "how to" for sustainability.

Village designs will incorporate modular geodesic and/or monolithic dome structures, green-built infrastructures, organic mineral and element rich farming, "aquaponic" farming technologies, algae oxygen generators, structured water purification systems and self-sufficient centralized systems for energy production; as well as, water and waste management.

These villages will be fully sustainable, green built, intentional communities serving as eco-resorts  and living models for thrivability.
