    Very professional and very knowledgeable.

  • Anne Stair Rosenbloom

    I loved training with Robson. Aside from his impressive knowledge of exercise and body mechanics it is Robson's passion for exercise and being fit and healthy and his personal investment in and belief that his clients will succeed which makes him a most special trainer. His explanations and demonstrations of various exercises are always thorough and he welcomes and encourages questions. Robson is one of the most genuine and positive people I know and these qualities, along with his enthusiasm and kindness, make every training session an absolute pleasure.

How did you get started teaching?

When I was 12 years old, I used to go to the library across the street to read books about exercise. At age 14, I started playing soccer competitively, and loved the fitness conditioning sessions. In my senior year in high school, I already knew Physical Education would be my major in College, so that I could help athletes improve their performance, and non-athletes be healthy and fit.
