About Us: The Creators Behind Venisana
Chase Hurst and Carlos Antonini
Chase Hurst
Eight years ago, he shattered his leg on a trip he took because it felt safe, not because it felt right. That break didn’t just change his body. It woke him up.
Before that break, Sunday nights felt heavy, empty, angry. He couldn’t sleep knowing he had to wake up to a life that WAS comfortable, secure… and empty, unfulfilling. He missed work at least once every 2 weeks, not from laziness, but from numbness. From feeling lost. From knowing deep down he wasn’t living what he was meant to live.
For him, shattering his leg in 14 pieces made him realize life wasn’t going to wait for the perfect moment to start living, there was always going to be something, a job, a friend, a obligation, wether he lives his life on purpose or like a cog in a system.
After that, he chose discomfort on purpose. He traveled to foreign countries. Learned a new language. Started an online career he was brand new in. Taught fitness and martial arts. Led retreats. Started surrounding himself with the people who had the qualities, the discipline, the fire, the lust for life he always knew he had in him.
Now he builds a community of people who want real ownership of their body, mind, money, and purpose.
Freedive Level 4 instructor. Martial artist. Breathwork facilitator.
On a mission to live fully, and bring others with him.
Welcome to Venisana.
One rule: take full accountability. Control the controlables.
Carlos Antonini
Carlos wasn’t always disciplined. For a few years of his life he struggled with his weight, his habits, and his energy because he wasn’t taking accountability. He blamed the system, circumstances, and everything outside of himself. He was playing the “victim”. Then he realized something uncomfortable but liberating. Even if the system is fucked up, his health was still his responsibility. No one was coming to save him but himself.
The strange part is he never felt broken. He told himself he was fine. He functioned, smiled, kept moving. But deep down, He knew he wasn’t being honest with himself.
Now he lives by the following moto:
"I don’t believe in easy paths. If it’s easy, it’s probably not worth it.
I live by radical responsibility. No victims. No excuses. I own everything that happens in my life.
I don’t chase people or validation. I move with standards, discipline, and the power to walk away when alignment is broken.
Health is non-negotiable. Sun, movement, silence, clean food, and real human connection. Money means nothing without mental and physical health.
I question social norms, consumption, and comfort. Purpose isn’t something you find later. It’s who you are, today.”

He has created communities, events, and retreats around the world, bringing people together through movement, awareness, and accountability.
Venisana is an extension of that philosophy. Build yourself. Build community. Live consciously.
