In person in Playa

Private sessions at Evolve Gym on 5th Avenue in Playa del Carmen, or outdoors. Great if you live here or you’re in town for a few weeks.

02

Live video sessions

Real-time coaching over WhatsApp, Zoom or FaceTime. Bodyweight or minimal equipment — your living room, hotel room or backyard works.

A program built for you

Strength, toning, fat loss, contest prep or just staying healthy as you get older — your routine fits your goals, schedule and history.

Why train with me

Maximum results, minimum wasted time.

I’ve been coaching since 1999 — personal training, bootcamps, group fitness and contest prep. Over the years I’ve learned you don’t need “no pain, no gain” to make real progress. You need efficient routines you can stick with and that keep you off the injured list.

  • Only the most effective exercises make the cut
  • Built around your body, goals and any old injuries
  • Nutrition guidance and accountability between sessions
