About Zone2YourJourney Inc.
Empowering Filipino youth through sports, health, and opportunity.
Zone2YourJourney Inc. is a registered nonprofit organization in the Philippines dedicated to improving lives through access to sports, wellness education, and holistic personal development.
Founded by Coach Dax Timbol and Coach Gee Timbol, the organization builds upon the proven success of their long-running programs in Las Vegas, Nevada (USA)—where children they once coached are now teenagers and adults competing at the top of their divisions, qualifying for national-level events, and earning partial or full-ride college scholarships.
Many of these athletes have returned as coaches and mentors, continuing a limitless cycle of giving that has shaped disciplined, confident, and goal-oriented individuals. What began as a community coaching initiative in the U.S. has evolved into an international movement of empowerment—now extending to communities across the Philippines.

Our Mission
We empower individuals—especially the youth—through evidence-based Zone 2 training programs, motivational support, and scientifically informed practices that encourage balance, self-compassion, and sustainable personal growth. Our community-centered model provides education, mentorship, and access to essential training resources for aspiring athletes in underserved areas.
Our Training Philosophy:
Zone 2 Approach
At the heart of our programs is Zone 2 Training—a method rooted in science and experience. Zone 2 refers to a moderate-intensity heart-rate range that builds a strong aerobic foundation, improves endurance, recovery, and overall health while reducing injury risk.
“Zone 2 Training helps athletes develop mental resilience and patience—cultivating discipline, confidence, and joy in their training.”
— Coach Dax Timbol
This approach mirrors our nonprofit values: consistency, mindfulness, and sustainable progress that benefits body and mind alike.

Flagship Project:
Grassroots Swim Program
San Agustin, Romblon | Launched 2025
In many provinces, young athletes train in open seas because no proper facilities are available. Zone2YourJourney Inc. aims to change that. Our first grassroots swim program in San Agustin brings structured coaching, equipment, and safe pool access to public-school students. Led by certified coaches and supported by volunteer educators, the initiative focuses on:
- Developing foundational swim and safety skills
- Preparing children for local and national meets
- Opening pathways to athletic scholarships
- Promoting discipline, confidence, and teamwork
This program is made possible through partnerships with the Municipality of San Agustin and Coach Dax Swim Club.
Zone2 Future Champions

The Zone2 Future Champions Scholarship Program supports student-athletes who are pursuing higher education while continuing to compete in their chosen sport.

It ensures that talented youth can continue their academic and athletic journeys without financial barriers, nurturing the next generation of scholar-athletes who will become role models, coaches, and community leaders.

Why It Matters
Sports can change lives —and we’ve seen it firsthand.
Our programs in Las Vegas, Nevada proved how early exposure to structured coaching transforms young lives. Children who once learned to swim for the first time now compete nationally, have earned university scholarships, and remain active in sports as adults.
Even more powerful is their personal growth: they’ve become disciplined, confident, and purpose-driven individuals who carry those values into academics, careers, and relationships. Many now give back as mentors—proving that athletic training doesn’t just build stronger bodies; it builds stronger communities.
Through Zone2YourJourney Inc., we bring that same transformative model to the Philippines—creating opportunities for children to grow through sport, learn resilience, and build self-worth that lasts a lifetime.
How You Can Help
Every contribution makes a difference. Your support—financial or in-kind—helps us provide training access, equipment, transportation, and competition opportunities for deserving youth.
- Support with any amount — every contribution directly funds our youth programs.
- In-kind donations welcomed: swim gear, training tools, educational supplies.
