Welcome to my world of fitness, where passion meets expertise! I'm a Certified Personal Trainer and Group Exercise Instructor, proudly holding certifications from NASM and a BA in Social and Behavioral Sciences from the University of South Florida.
My journey into the fitness realm began after navigating the challenges of a full-time, stress-inducing job in the mental health field. Seeking solace, I found myself at the gym, attending classes taught by the inspiring Joy. Her encouragement led me to embark on my own fitness instructor journey, obtaining certifications and diving into the world of group exercise.
Life took an unexpected turn when I faced a layoff from one of my initial jobs. This pivotal moment opened the door to becoming a certified personal trainer, allowing me to blend my passion for fitness with a newfound purpose. I transitioned from gym-centric sessions to virtual training during the pandemic, ultimately extending my services to in-home training for those seeking a more personalized approach.
Virtual training emerged as a game-changer, offering convenience without the hassles of traffic or concerns about health risks. For my in-home clients, I bring the workout to them, saving time and energy. My philosophy centers around the belief that there are no bad exercises; it's all about finding what works for each unique individual. With a focus on longevity and overall well-being, my approach has evolved to emphasize mobility and lower-impact workouts.
On a personal note, I was born in the bustling streets of Brooklyn, grew up soaking in the Florida sunshine, and made the Bay Area my home in 1989. While my professional persona exudes energy and encouragement, my off-duty moments find me relishing the tranquility of quiet activities, whether at home or by the beach. Outdoors, I thrive on the variety of hiking opportunities the Bay Area has to offer.
Join me on this fitness journey, where every step is a celebration of your unique path to wellness. Let's make fitness not just a routine, but a lifestyle tailored to your individual goals and aspirations.
