I started with Nate less than 6 months ago, with little-to-no knowledge about physical fitness. I ultimately chose to begin my fitness journey with Nate because of his mindfulness approach - I'm a rather anxious person, so this is what really drew me to him.
What sets Nate apart is that ge takes the time to get to know you. He genuinely cares about your goals (both inside and outside the gym) and helps you achieve them.
Nate will push you to do your best, but also recognizes that people have limits and knows where to draw the line. He takes the time to explain what different movements/exercises do to the body (i.e., what muscles they work), while ensuring you use the right techniques to avoid injuries.
I really look forward to our sessions, and always come out feeling incredible! 10/10 recommend.
Thanks for everything, Nate! More...

Nate's training approach is tailored to each client's needs. He is very knowledgeable and has an excellent ability to pass on his knowledge.

My fiance and I started working with Nate in September 2021 with the goal of getting ready for our destination wedding in May 2022. My personal goal of losing at least 10 pounds and gaining muscular definition in my shoulders and upper back was exceedingly met. I really enjoyed working with Nate as he is a such a positive, fun, motivating and supportive coach. He is also extremely knowledgeable and we have learned so much not only about our bodies and how they move but also about nutrition which is a key piece. We will take all of this information we have gained to continue leading sustainable healthy/fit lives. Thank-you Nate🙌🏻 More...

Nate is one of those rare unicorns that has an immense amount of knowledge and patience paired with a seemingly effortless ability to teach. His natural aptitude for breaking down complex concepts into manageable and fun lessons/workouts makes our weekly sessions something I look forward to every time. Stack that on top of his wildly competitive pricing for this type of quality and you've got a premier level coach.

Outside of training sessions, Nate is quick to respond and eager to make sure I've got everything I need to be the best version of myself in the studio. He is flexible with scheduling and understanding when life throws curveballs and rescheduling is needed.

Whether you're just starting out on your fitness journey or you're a seasoned practitioner, Nate will add value to your life well worth his cost and beyond.

Thank you for your patience, attention to detail and overall super personalized experience. Keep crushing it Nate! More...

An absolute big thanks Dan. You've pretty much sum up what I've been doing for that past 8 years. Working on my own and serving my clients as best as possible is my goal. I'm happy that I was able to provide you with that custom service. Lots more to come.. Thank you for those kind words. I truly appreciate it.

There are 3 things one should look for in a trainer; 1. Professionalism 2. Knowledge, and 3. Communication.
Nate encompasses all of these and then some! He takes his job seriously yet makes it fun, and his knowledge of fitness and anatomy is impressive. I feel his biggest asset is his communication skills. He not only listens to his clients, he hears them. While tailoring a fitness schedule based on his clients’ needs, Nate is able to break down the program and exercises in a way that is easy to understand. When training with Nate his whole attention remains focussed solely on his client, which is an attribute I truly value and appreciate. My own fitness journey has been that much more enjoyable because of Nate’s great attitude, talent and experience! If you’re in need of a personal trainer, I highly recommend his services! Thanks for everything Nate!! More...
