Testimonials

V is always learning and innovating, eager to share new approaches and exercises with clients to enhance their health and fitness. The studio is a great place to exercise -- the space is bright and airy, the vibe is friendly, laid back and non-competitive. It is the anti-thesis of a gym. I look forward to working out. V has a devoted clientele -- people continue to work with him because he is personable, extremely knowledgeable, supportive and he brings about results.

I worked out with V for several consecutive months in 2008, and I have never felt healthier or stronger than I did during that period. V mixes it up, making the hour fun, and pushes, but never to the point of injury... it was, believe it or not, a favorite part of my day!

V is someone who loves personal training. He cares about my progress, listens to my concerns and is always finding new ways to help me achieve my goals. I never thought I would say this but, I now enjoy going to workout.

I am 55 years old and have been working out with V for several years. I appreciate his kindness in dealing with my various arthritic aches and pains and the research he did to learn the best ways to fend off osteoporosis. The workouts are always challenging but never beyond my ability. The atmosphere in the studio is cheerful and upbeat.

I came to V's with the intention of seeing him a few times to get rid of about 15 lbs. of post-baby weight. I have now been seeing him twice a week for over 3 years! Training with V completely changed my life in many ways -- I had had a herniated disc and never thought I'd be able to lift again, now I carry my four-year-old up and down the stairs with no problem at all. I also never thought I'd run again, and I've been running 7 miles at a time since my core strength developed enough to protect my back. V is great. I am so much more confident physically than I ever was. I am 43 and look better than I did in my 20'S!

- Kelly A.

Working out with V has given me strength, energy, and happiness. I work my best knowing that V is always thinking about how to make me stronger, while keeping me motivated to do the work. I can do pushups, pull ups and run a mile really fast. When my life gets stressful, I always come to the gym and it makes me feel better.

Love V, somehow I understand and can occasionally hear what he is saying. V always cares and gives his all - scary! I love all the help and encouragement he gives me, it means a lot. This is a place I get encouragement and that is key. Have I used the word encouragement too much?

Ahh your awesome!! If you weren't in Brooklyn I would have a bunch of girls from my agency signed up.

When I am working out regularly with you I see huge improvement in a matter of weeks. You managed to make serious workouts part of my routine and somehow keep me engaged in the process. I never thought I'd be talking smack, let alone winning pushup competitions... :)
