With over 12 years in the fitness industry, Michael started his professional training career in New York City. His athletic career began at a young age, playing sports and participating in martial arts.

Fitness Approach:
In fitness, as in life, one needs balance, flexibility, and understanding. Strength, speed, and power will come if we are able to prioritize training the core, maintaining flexibility to avoid injury, and ever-expanding our knowledge base to stay current and informed.
