About
I have the ability to motivate people to get them to do things they didn't think they could do. You don't have to yell and scream at someone to get the best out of them. I'm here for the beginners to the advanced athletes. I have been certified for the last 8 years but have over 25 years of workout experience. I am also knowledgeable in multiple high school and college sports as I have played at both levels. We will focus on strength, agility, cardio, and flexibility for your entire body. I charge $25 dollars for 30 minute sessions and $50 dollars for hour sessions. You will be smoked but feel great no matter which session you choose.
I enjoy being able to do what I love. I enjoy helping people when I can in or out of the gym.

I’ve been training with Shan and the results speak for themselves. Since starting, I’ve lost over 45 pounds while building strength and consistency in my routine. He created a structured plan that balanced weight training and cardio, and he held me accountable without being overwhelming.
What I appreciate most is that he focused on sustainable habits, proper form, progressive overload, hydration, and nutrition guidance. I feel stronger, more confident, and more disciplined than I have in years. If you’re serious about getting results, I highly recommend him.

Shan is an amazing person and an excellent trainer. He was very flexible with his schedule when necessary to make time changes. He works early mornings, late evenings and weekends. He is very knowledgeable and knows how to get great results as long as you put in the work.

I started out as a complete newbie in the gym, not really knowing what I was doing or where to begin. Working with Shan made all the difference. He was incredibly patient, flexible with scheduling, and always made me feel comfortable and supported. I actually enjoyed my time training, something I never expected to say about the gym! I learned a lot, gained confidence, and would absolutely work with him again. Highly recommend!
