Hey there
My name is Dennis. I’m a Certified Personal Trainer (CPT - NASM, National Personal Training Institute graduate), an MMA Conditioning Coach, and a USA Boxing Certified Coach. I’ve been extensively involved in boxing, kickboxing, grappling, and martial arts for 29 years — and I teach the real thing.
I specialize in hardcore, old-school boxing and kickboxing. If you're looking for realistic fighting skills, real technique, and serious training — not watered-down fitness classes — this is it. I offer highly technical, hands-on coaching you simply can't get in large group classes where the trainer can't focus on you individually.
My approach is combat-effective, blending traditional martial arts wisdom with modern, science-backed methods from strength and conditioning, physical education, and psychological training. Every move, every drill, every session is designed to make you better — both physically and mentally.
My Journey:
I started martial arts in 1998 at the age of 17, beginning with kickboxing. Over the years, I fought and trained extensively in kickboxing, sharpened my boxing at the legendary Gleason’s Gym in Brooklyn and Kingsway Gym in NYC, and cross-trained in MMA, Sambo, and Grappling.
I was honored to work as a Level 3 Personal Trainer at Equinox, one of the most elite fitness clubs in the industry, and I’ve helped close to 100 clients reach their personal best at Equinox and Crunch Fitness in NYC.
In addition to fight training, I also specialize in:
Functional Training
Kettlebell Training
Mobility and Injury Prevention
Strength & Conditioning for Fighters
Corrective Exercise
HIIT and Fat Loss Programming
I enjoy helping people achieve their goals, fulfill their dreams, and become stronger — inside and out.
What I Promise:
Your safety is my top priority.
Every session is fully personalized, challenging, and fun.
I guarantee you will get stronger.
I guarantee you will learn how to fight.
I will motivate you, not discourage you.
I will respect you — no ego, no belittling, ever.
