About
I have been working in health and wellness for over 10 years as a personal trainer specializing in yoga and senior citizen strength training. I strive to provide the absolute best experience for my clients and help them live their healthiest lives. My programs include building strength, balance, flexibility, mental wellness and more, depending on the client’s desires. Each individual I work with is special to me and therefore receives a carefully curated program that meets the needs of their fitness journey. I’ve had the pleasure of working with students from all walks of life including athletes, celebrities, school children, senior citizens and those battling physical and mental challenges. I’m also currently back in school for physical therapy so that I could provide my clients with even more training in injury prevention and rehabilitation. My goal is to give each person the confidence and health they deserve so that they can be amazing in whatever they do in life. Let’s make magic happen together!
Remote training also available!

I met Mikey when I started taking his yoga classes 6 years ago. He was such a good teacher that I decided I wanted to hire him for one-on-one instruction. His workouts and Vinyasa flow kick my ass, and he’s also really good at slow yoga and stretching. I have recommended so many people to Mikey as a personal trainer/yoga instructor and everyone loves him!

I struggle with osteoarthritis and Mikey made a program that not only made me stronger, but took away the aches and pains I suffer with daily. His knowledge and training really shows through his work. He is an instructor that really cares!

I have been working with Mikey for 4 years and I have had an amazing journey. He truly cares about each one of his clients. He also has studied Yoga in India, which does make a big difference. He is truly responsive to any questions. During the hard time we are all having in 2020, Mikey understands the need that his clients have, with being at home, and how important exercise and meditation is to their daily needs. He has a large catalogue of pre-taped videos to choose from, which he updates all the time. He also has live zoom classes and live one on one Yoga. Also one very important thing, he has a wonderful sense of humor.

Any day I can work out with Mikey is a total joy. He has been an incredible addition to my home workout routine during covid with his live virtual classes and his prerecorded ones. Definitely would recommend him to everyone — the music is great, his yoga flow is on point and he’s available if you have any questions. 10/10 classes and teacher!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Prices start as low for $80 for online sessions and can be bought with a bulk discount. Travel costs may increase price. Discounts available for new clients who buy package.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Before we begin, I ask first time clients to fill out a quick questionnaire to gain a better understanding of their health. This is to help understand your level of fitness and if any modifications may be needed. Before starting our session we will have a quick chat to break the ice and get to know a little more about each other. What inspires you to workout? During our time, you will have a personally curated session and we can modify as we go if needed.
