In The Beginning
Billy grew up the youngest of six kids in southern California. With a difficult childhood, he had no dreams or aspiration of who he wanted to become or what he wanted to do with his life. In his early twenties struggling with addiction to drugs, he found himself at a church where he gave his life to Jesus Christ, and for the first time felt he had a real chance at doing something significant with his life. Now a born-again Christian, Billy’s faith became the foundation by which he would attribute his accomplishments, achievements, and successes.
The Entrepreneurship Inside
The Entrepreneurship Inside
Major Setback
In 2003, Billy sold his martial arts studio to enter his second business venture and started what was to be a video production company Big On Kids Entertainment, Inc. As founder and CEO of the company his vision was to create a video series about a character he created and developed, Kid Billy. With his passion to helping kids his plan was to duplicate his efforts in his martial arts studio and the community and produce a children’s live-action video series around the Kid Billy character in hopes of having a positive and lasting impact on the lives of kids everywhere. A noble and worthwhile venture turned out to become a major setback in his life. With little to no experience in video or film production he and his four partners struggled to get distribution and the company was dissolved in 2005. This single experience set in motion a series of events that would cause Billy to drain all his savings, lose his home to foreclosure, file bankruptcy, and subsequently lead to he and his wife of sixteen years with two young children to end their marriage in divorce. This was the most painful and difficult thing he had ever had to deal with to this point in his life. In 2008-2009 he found himself broke and broken.
Breakthrough
Visionary and Pioneer
In 2018 with no other licenses available to open additional Orangetheory studios, Billy’s desire to have a positive, meaningful, and lasting impact on the lives of others, he sought to creating ways to continue with this passion and he came up with a concept in the yoga space that had never been done before. He realized that the yoga industry was wide open for something new and great, and he was willing to step out in faith and take his idea and years of experience as an entrepreneur and business owner and bring his new yoga concept to life. With a million dollars of investment he created a revolutionary new yoga practice, VibeFlow® Yoga. This yoga concept was the first of its kind anywhere in the industry as a technology-based practice that utilized whole body vertical vibration (WBV) which has tremendous health benefits, and he incorporated an audio-immersion headphone system which has created an experience unlike anything in the fitness and wellness industry. Billy is the Founder and CEO of VibeFlow®, he and VibeFlow® have been featured on ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX and KUSI News in San Diego.
