About
I make individual connections by putting my heart and soul into my work. I get to know each client and build a strong relationship with them in order to help them achieve their goals. Also, I'm always available if they need to reach me somehow.
I enjoy helping my clients feel empowered by becoming the best versions of themselves.

How did you get started teaching?
I was doing this type of work since I was 19 years old. I was a combat fitness trainer in the Israeli army, then I studied to be a gym teacher, and Exercise physiology. I worked with a wide range of ages and fitness levels.
In the U.S.A I studied to be a personal trainer and a health coach with ACE. I always loved helping people exercise and lead a healthier lifestyle.
What types of students have you worked with?
I worked with different kind of customers: healthy adults, overweight and obese, seniors, teenagers and pre-teen. I worked with sedentary people and with athletes who wanted to improve performance.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
My latest project that I am fond of is training an obese woman who lost over 100 pounds. She was on medications for high blood pressure and cholesterol which she doesn't need anymore. It took us over a year with implementing small changes that accumulated to big change in her lifestyle and life quality.
We still meet once a month to adjust her fitness and nutrition plans. I am proud of her dedication and adherence to the program.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
The best advice I can give a customer who is looking to hire a personal trainer is to look at the certifications and education. There are personal trainers who took a weekend course and there are trainers who have a bachelor and a masters degree in exercise science. There is a big difference between the two. Make sure the trainer got certified with one of the big companies (ACE, NASM, ISSA...).
