The People Behind Belong

When we work with you, we are committed to encouraging curiosity and fostering confidence—by explaining the mechanisms of all foundational movements and deconstructing the science behind our recommendations.

    CO-FOUNDER AND COACH

    After a long career in S&P 500 and venture-backed startups, I have decided to spend my next ten years deconstructing, simplifying and helping others build exercise as a habit.

    Sid Mohantha

    DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS

    I’m driven to make a real difference in people's lives and help them become a healthier version of themselves. I’ve been helping people achieve their fitness goals for over a decade—in areas including weight training, CrossFit and gymnastics—and have helped launch training centres across Bangalore. I bring creative flair to my work thanks to my background in film production!
