James is hands down one of the best trainers in the business. He genuinely cares about his clients and possesses the adaptability to apply his knowledge regardless of your physical shape, strength or mental barriers. I have been training under James for several years now, and his eye for muscular imbalances and functional movements have been proven to be far invaluable as they have made all the difference in my time as a Division I collegiate athlete. From an elite athlete once trying to go pro, to a banking professional now trying to escape the sedentary lifestyle, James has always found a way to keep me engaged and challenged with his workouts, and more importantly, continues to make them fun even after hundreds of sessions. Regardless of how tired or stressed I may be, I always walk out of my workouts at The Unique Playground feeling better than when I came in. James is someone who undoubtably never stops perfecting his craft and this is evident by not only his competence, but his ability to conintiously innovate, regardless of the amount of over-saturation in the fitness industry. No matter what your goals are, with The Unique Playground workouts do not have to be torturous and boring ever again!

What I LOVE about Unique Playground, says it in its name! Its much more than personal training. Its a unique, technical method of training, scientifically designed for my individual needs. No need to workout for hours at a time any more to get the results I want. I love the PLAYGROUND!

James truest defines the term “personal trainer,” in that he trains based on your individuality needs and capabilities. He is client focused and designs your specific training program around your goals while accounting for and limitations you may have due to injury, endurance, etc. I can to him after delivering my first child via c-section. In 7 months and training only 1 day I have gained muscle tone, lost all of the baby weight, most importantly have strengthen my core and gotten rid of my lower back pain!!! My husband was so happy with my results that he started seeing James too!! I highly recommend him for anyone who wants to improved their health and fitness!!
