About
I help people age with autonomy, independence, power and grace.
You took care of many, time to take care of yourself.
I specialize in people who are 50 and older, teaching how to prioritize themselves again. People who dedicated most of their lives to their families, demanding jobs, had other priorities but now decided to refocus their energy towards self-care and need guidance.
I am a certified and insured Personal Trainer, Yoga and Tai Chi Chuan, Reiki Healer with over 12 years of experience around Brazil, Canada and U.S.A.
I will help you to:
- Exercise properly to avoid injuries.
- Make conscious choices on your diet.
- Improve your posture and patterns so you get rid of pain.
- Realize that getting in shape doesn’t require crazy diets and workouts. That things can be done in a responsible and efficient way, respecting your individuality.
- Change your body and most important: to keep the changes.
My areas on fitness are:
- Weight training, TRX, functional training and HIIT.
- Private Yoga and Tai Chi Chuan.
- Nutrition plans.
- Online Programs.
- Reiki Healing.
Contact me to schedule a meeting (at no cost) so we can talk about your goals and see if we are a match to work together.
See you soon,
Gil Correa

Gil is a compassionate and attentive personaltrainer. He has an understanding of the human body that gives you confidence that he can help you achieve your goals. And he meets you at your level of experience, and knows when to push you or give you more time. I have an injury and he was especially careful to adjust exercises to help me work around the injury while building muscle around it and helping me stay fit while getting ready for a surgery.
I can highly recommend Gil as a personaltrainer!

I definitely recommend working with Gil! He is extremely knowledgable and knows exactly how to work out each muscle group to get results and remain healthy/safe. His workouts and meal plans are excellent. During sessions, he is attentive and receptive to any questions. In addition, the gym he operates out of, HVY, is very clean, friendly and has great equipment.

Gil Correa is a highly skilled trainer with a great attitude.
I have worked with a number of personaltrainers over many years both in New York and Los Angeles and none have proved more effective or knowledgeable than Gil.
After some time of working out by myself I realized that I needed a pro who would help me stay in shape and reach new goals.
I got lucky by finding someone of Gil's caliber and could not be happier.

Gil was an incredibly effective and motivating trainer. With his extensive educational background and understanding of balancing the weights, with diet, and cardio - I find training with Gil to already have significant effects not only on my body but also my overall health. I also appreciate the constant communication even when I'm not around and traveling, making sure to keep me on track and keep my diet in line with the overall goals of my training. he's a great guy and couldn't recommend him more to anyone out there that wants to get into great shape, better shape, or really just kickstart a healthier lifestyle.

After working out with various trainers and in bootcamps, I know what style of training I respond best to. Gil makes our workouts enjoyable and he really cares about helping me meet my fitness goals. My job is pretty demanding so working out isn't always top priority, but Gil offers exactly what I need to round out my fitness needs -- I'm already seeing improved definition in my body after training with him this past month! If you want to take your fitness to another level, I highly recommend Gil!!

FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Get to know them. Their expectations, fears and dreams. That helps to build a whole training that prioritize their individualities, making it easier to achieve their goals.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a 5 year degree in physical education from Brazil where I lived most of my life. It's different from P.E IN USA, it's a course where you study physiology, anatomy, kinesiology, training and a lot of other subjects related to physical activities, fitness and wellness. I also got certified in Canada and U.S for training and weight management.
I also have other certifications such as groups classes(yoga, spinning and etc), kettlebell, TRX and also energy healing.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I have been always into exercises since I started doing martial arts. I was an overweight kid who wanted to lose weight and did not know how, as I started to do martial arts during my 15 years, my body started to change. I began to dig more in the martial arts world, learning Karate, Kung Fu and Tai Chi Chuan which leaded me to a university and a degree in the area of kinesiology, sports science, training, fitness and wellness. My degree gave me a whole new world when I started to work in a Gym, studying and practicing weight training, group classes, pilates and yoga, so as gymnastics and circus activities. I like working with people, helping them to achieve their goals, watch them change their attitude, mind and body in the process and see that they are enjoying what they are doing.
