Ancient weight. Ancient rhythm. Real results.

The meel was built in the Zurkhaneh — where Persian warriors trained power, endurance, and discipline centuries before the modern gym. Every swing hits your shoulders, core, grip, and coordination at once. No machines needed.

Old school strength. New school fitness. Come try it.

Throughout human history, we as individuals have always sought out groups and spaces where we can feel empowered, be ourselves, and learn from one another. We Are Zoorkhaneh was created for this very purpose: to celebrate diversity and bring different communities together. This perfectly reflects the core philosophy of Zurkhaneh, an ancient Iranian sport founded on the principles of kindness, protection, and support for the most vulnerable. Especially in today's interconnected world, sport serves as a powerful universal language, breaking down barriers and fostering meaningful intercultural dialogue.

In May, we launched our first workshop, and so many of you participated! It was incredibly rewarding to see your enthusiasm for learning about Zoorkhaneh, embracing its philosophy, and training together as one community.
Thank you for all those who supported us, and a special thank to @anoush.fitance We are striving to grow this community and can't wait to see you all again soon at our upcoming events! who came from Toronto to join us, and @seattleisfahan and @amnestyatuw as our partners. A heartfelt thanks goes to @ancient_warrior_hub for lending us the equipment. What a team! #wearezoorkhaneh #waz #nonprofitleadership #leadersoftoday

The Meel teaches more than strength.

Every rotation builds endurance, coordination, and discipline—reminding us that mastery is forged through repetition.

Every Sundays : 11:30 am - 12:30 pm

“I can’t believe this crazy idea is actually working” was probably the sentence I heard the most in the week leading up to the event. And honestly, it’s true. We went through some crazy moments, but I was surrounded by an incredible team that trusted my vision from the very beginning.

“We Are Zoorkhaneh” is a project that started in my mind last June, in a small town, Altipiani di Arcinazzo, in the middle of Italy, inside a tiny bedroom. The idea was simple but powerful: using Zoorkhaneh to connect people and revive this ancient tradition. But at the beginning, so many pieces were missing: the equipment, the instructor, the funding.

In the fall, I started reaching out to every Zoorkhaneh instructor I could find in the US and Canada, and eventually I connected with @ancient_warrior_hub and @anoush.fitance , who helped us make this workshop possible. During spring break, I spent almost 10 hours a day working on applications and pitches for the project, and thanks to the support of @uw_amnesty , we were finally able to secure funding.

On Tuesday, we drove to Vancouver and came back across the US border with an entire set of wooden training equipment, anxious that we might get stopped and end up without the equipment for the workshop. We flew Farnoush in from Toronto a couple of days before the workshop and we recorded a podcast!

Then we moved all the equipment from my place to the venue using just one cart and two-and-a-half volunteers.

But we made it.

So many people came to train in Zoorkhaneh: students, cultural heritage scholars, local community members, and even a couple from Portland who came just to train with us.

I’m incredibly grateful to everyone who helped make this possible. Seeing people experience and connect with this tradition for the first time made every stressful moment worth it.
Thank you all.
