After two decades of training — and running three gyms — I made a deliberate choice: work with fewer people and do the work better. Every session is designed around where you are and what you're actually working toward.
Individualized program design — no cookie-cutter templates
60-minute one-on-one sessions, fully private
Flexible scheduling to fit your life
Ongoing accountability between sessions
Injury-aware training with real attention to your history
No front desk, no waiting, no distractions
Investment
$100
to $150 per 60-minute session
Sessions are available individually or in blocks of 10. Block pricing locks in your rate and ensures consistent access. Most clients train 3–5 days per week.
Roster is limited by design. Reach out to check current availability.
Who this is for
You're in the right place if…
Private training at this level isn't for everyone — and it's not meant to be. It's for people who are serious about investing in their health with someone who is equally serious about getting them there.
You want one-on-one attention
You've outgrown group fitness or big-box gyms and want programming built specifically for you — not a template with your name on it.
You value your time
Every session is ready when you arrive. No waiting, no distractions, no wasted time. We get to work.
You're managing an injury or returning after a gap
Training around limitations takes experience and attention. This is where a private, expert environment makes the difference.
You want a trainer who remembers your history
Small roster means real continuity. I know your goals, your tendencies, and what's working — every single session.
You're a teen athlete building a foundation
Strength and conditioning designed specifically for young athletes — improving performance, reducing injury risk, and building habits that last a career.
You're navigating peri-menopause
Hormonal shifts change how the body responds to training. I specialize in programming that supports women through this transition — building strength, managing energy, and feeling capable again.
About
Two decades. One focus.
I've spent 20 years in this industry — training clients, building gyms from the ground up, and learning what actually moves the needle over the long term. After owning and operating three facilities, I made a deliberate decision to step back from the business of running gyms and return to the work I've always loved most: actually training people.
My private studio in Edina lets me do this the right way — with a small roster, full attention, and no compromise on quality. If you've worked with trainers before who felt distracted, or programs that felt generic, this is a different experience.
I train adults who are serious about their health, teen athletes building real athletic foundations, and women navigating the physical shifts that come with peri-menopause. Whatever your starting point, we build from there.

What clients say
Results speak for themselves.
“
I'd been dealing with a shoulder issue for two years. Within six weeks of training here, I was moving better than I had in a decade. The attention to detail is unlike anything I'd experienced at a regular gym.

The private setup changes everything. I'm not waiting for equipment, I'm not self-conscious, and every single session is exactly what I need that day. Worth every dollar.

I came back after three years away from any kind of exercise. He didn't just hand me a program — he actually listened to where I was starting from and built something I could stick to.
I respond to every inquiry personally within 24 hours. The first consultation is a 30-minute conversation — no pressure, just a chance to talk through where you are and whether this is the right fit.
