Long time NYC resident (over two decades) and underground DJ, Ian Ford, is the creator and owner of the Caffeine Underground! Ford took his passion for music and exposed audiences to new soundscapes and cultures through his successful DJ residencies at some of NY's most infamous clubs including The Bank, Webster Hall, Splash, XL and many more. Through the buzzing metropolis, Ford was able to see into the darkest corners of night life and helped support his local communities who were a part of LGBTQIA, rock and electronic dance scenes. Ford spent much of his time over the years developing a lifestyle that was grounded, and more healthy. He began studying topics in spirituality, martial arts, and physical training. Since then, Ford still practices and is an educator in PaKua Martial Arts, Reiki, and Ch'ien Chi Kua. Ian Ford continues to spread his wealth of culture, sharing his insight and joy with others in the hope, they continue to share their own experiences.
