Rappfitness 

At age 53, with 30+ years of personal training I have developed my proven style of training. Its two key components are specialized weight training techniques and strict detail to form. An athletic background led me to a passion for fitness. In 1976, I began working for Jack Lalanne Health Clubs. Within a year, I was the Instructor Supervisor at their California flagship club.

In 1980, after competing in a local bodybuilding contest  I was discovered and began my 20 year career at Chippendales performing all over the world. The position demanded endless hours of dance combined with weight training.

I studied at some of the best dance schools in NYC. Steps and Broadway Dance Center just to name a couple. I've worked with some of the top choreographers around the world.  I have been fortunate to have traveled and trained in some of the best gyms in the US and abroad learning the most innovative and effective weight training techniques. These experiences enabled me to distinguish between fitness fads and fitness facts which will always stand the test of time.

In 1998, I enrolled in the prestigious Swedish Institute in NYC. Since 2000, I have been practicing as a Licensed Massage Therapist. Massage has taken my business to a new level. Massage quickens the healing process of muscles and tendons in conjunction with working the joints through their full range of motion. My specialty is Sports Massage.  I've had the privilege of being a member of the US Tennis Association Massage Team. 

I have helped people of all shapes and sizes reach their goals. My method works. Let me design a program just for you.
