About Jim Levy

Jim Levy is an NSCA-Certified Personal Trainer and Shotokan karate black belt who combines weighted jump rope HIIT, non-sparring karate fundamentals, and Apple Watch-guided intervals in a time-efficient approach to building aerobic fitness, strength-endurance, coordination, and agility.

​

Based in Los Angeles, Jim created a weekly in-person Karate & Fitness class for blind and low-vision adults at Braille Institute Los Angeles. The class launched in January 2024, and he has instructed it as a volunteer ever since. That experience reinforced the importance of precise verbal coaching, active training, skill development, safety, and making exercise both challenging and accessible.

 

His own training reflects the same philosophy: efficient, sustainable, and measurable workouts that can remain effective over decades of consistent practice.
