Ashtanga yoga focuses on a specific sequence of postures which are linked through movement and breath. The unique aspects to this practice include engagement of the internal locks and deep breathing which are used to assist the regulation of the flow of energy or life force. Ashtanga is an athletic flow combining strength, flexibility and stamina.

As a former D1 collegiate athlete I have always made my fitness and everyday performance a priority.
I aim to change the lives of my clients not only the through the physical aspect but psychologically as well. I got into training after playing football and running track for 15 years. Shortly after beginning my college career I got injured and realized that if I was going to make a comeback I would have to be mentally and physically in the right state. After battling through some adversity I was able to get back in the right mindset with the help of my coaches. Through this I learned that you don’t have to go through your battles alone. There is always someone out there to help and I want to help my clients achieve success like my coaches helped me. I’m confident that I can help you both mentally and physically, and that together we will reach and surpass your goals.
My philosophy on training is to find the right amount of output (exercise) versus input (nutrition) for any given client based on discovering their “metabolic code”.
Once this code is pinpointed and modified for optimum performance the results are nothing short of amazing. Once the optimal style of training and nutrition is implemented the next two most important training principles are consistency and injury free training. Consistency is the number one item that will lead to results. The other is injury free training. Combining safe weight lifting principles and high benefit low risk movements will be the most efficient way to achieving your goals!!

I grew up competitive swimming and since then have tried many different training styles from half marathons, crew, HIIT and plyo style training, bikram yoga, spinning and currently bodybuilding. I think it’s important to have a well rounded training program that includes a variety of different styles to challenge not only your body, but your mind as well. Fitness is just as much a mental challenge as it is physical. I want to teach you to view fitness in a positive light. My training style varies with each individual client based on their goals and needs. My goal as a trainer is to educate, support, motivate and inspire you on how to achieve your goals in a healthy manner by designing a custom program that is fun, challenging and sustainable. Everyone’s fitness journey is different. You should enjoy it! I want to make fitness and health a lifestyle for you and allow you to find that balance. We will work together to have the best version of yourself inside and out.
“Fitness is a celebration of what your body can do. Not a punishment for what you ate.”
I have been a personal trainer for almost 7 years. I began my fitness career in Washington DC at a bustling club where I specialized in weight loss and circuit training. Most recently, I was living in hometown of Worcester,MA where I coached athletes, from youth to semi-pro level, to improve performance and guide them towards a healthy lifestyle outside of their sport.
I am a firm believer in enhancing one’s movement, not just becoming better at “exercise.” Enhancing the mind to muscle connection is just as important, if not more important, than adding weight to the bar. It is important to break out of your comfort zone when training. Your training should not only have you looking better and moving more weight in the gym, but should also open up new avenues of fitness outside of the gym whether its something as simple as playing with your kids or something a bit more extreme like one of those crazy warrior races!!
