Meet John, a dedicated personal trainer who is passionate about helping clients build a solid foundation of fitness that lasts a lifetime. With his background in mixed martial arts and strength training, John will be your experienced guide, introducing you to new movement patterns and helping you avoid the pitfalls of injuries.

​

Favorite thing about the job: "I love that I can help people build a solid foundation of fitness that carries on for the rest of their lives - allowing them to do the things they love with the people they love. That makes it worth it."

​

Tip for starting a new fitness goal: "Make sure you have an experienced guide in your corner from the start. Someone who can point out the (many) imbalances of the human body. I did not, and had to learn the hard way (injury after injury)."

​

Client expectations: "Expect to be doing movement patterns you’ve never done before. Squat, dead, bench are good - but I try and emphasize the muscles behind those muscles, so you can properly get into the right position and allow the correct muscles to activate."

​

For fun: "I’d like to say I love the outdoors (to sound interesting) but I much prefer my own bed to a tent! I like to read, and I enjoy titillating theological/psychological conversation over coffee. I enjoy exercise, cauliflower pizza, and minimalist shoes!"

​

Little-known fact: "I’m a decent drummer & used to be in a hardcore/metal band many moons ago!"
