Brian J. Shircliff taught religion at St. Xavier High School for seventeen years.  He coached five State Champion and three State Runner-Up teams as Head Golf & Assistant Swimming Coach. In 2013, he felt called to swim away from the shipwreck of organized religion for a more inclusive perspective, where the wind blows freely and surprisingly. He is a Bones for Life® Trainer, Guild Certified Feldenkrais Practitioner®, Healing Touch Certified Practitioner, and thirty-year student of many styles of meditation, tai chi, and yoga. He co-founded and continues to direct VITALITY’s donation-based holistic self-care programs and publish VITALITY’s books.
