  • All new and prospective clients will recieve a free 360° Assessment + intro workout training session. The purpose of the 360° Assessment is to learn about your training goals and expectations. TThis session allows us to understand your training goals and expectations, discuss your past and current training status, injury and medical history, and any other health considerations. We also conduct a movement assessment to develop a baseline of training metrics that will guide your workout regimen.

  • I was a multi-sport athlete growing up but lost touch with athletics and competitiveness shortly following my school years. During this time, I became diagnosed with type-1 diabetes and experienced a traumatic experience that impacted my confidence and overall well-being. Adopting an active lifestyle during this chapter of my life kept me moving ahead and discovering a deeper passion in fitness motivated me to compete, push beyond my fitness limits, and manage my health better. As I invested more in my health, I grew inspired to empower others struggling through their own challenges. I started leading group fitness classes and personal training. I’m also now pursuing a doctorate degree of Physical Therapy at Hunter College in NYC and I'm eager to further help others move better in their future.

  • I've worked with customers of all ages and fitness levels however, I specialize in training individuals who were highly active in the past but have lost touch with movement. TRAINWITHDINO is committed to positioning you for future success and working towards the best years ahead of you!
