Help Blake with fixing his shoulder

Hi Everyone,

My name is Blake and I manage F45 Queen Anne in Seattle. I coach group fitness classes 5 to 7 days a week, anywhere from 15-22 classes with class sizes ranging from 20 to 36 people. This work is incredibly physical, and I love it!! I get to inspiring, challenging, and helping 100 plus people each day.

Unfortunately, an old college football injury on my right shoulder has left me in constant, numbing pain. This pain prevents me from doing certain exercises and assisting clients with modifications. It's heartbreaking to be limited in my ability to perform my job to the best of my abilities.

My shoulder has too much scar tissue and arthritis for surgery to be an option. The only viable treatment is stem cell replacement. However, this treatment is expensive, and I cannot afford it on my own.

Asking for help is not easy for me, but I am reaching out because I want to be able to do my job at 100%. I have never experienced what it feels like to work without pain, and I am determined to get there.

Thank you for listening to my story. Any contribution you can make will be deeply appreciated.
