Hello, my name is John, I am a NASM-certified personal trainer helping busy professionals reach fitness goals in San Francisco's parkside district and sunset district. I was born and raised in San Francisco, where I spent most of my childhood outdoors—running, competing in track and field, and competing in dragon boat races. I’ve been involved in dragon boat racing since my teenage years, and it eventually sparked my passion for hands-on learning and coaching.
I discovered my love for coaching in 2010, right after high school, when I began coaching the high school dragon boat team at the Community Youth Center. That passion deepened in 2014 after seeing the incredible transformation in the high school athletes I worked with—we swept every division with gold medals that season, and witnessing the impact of effective coaching changed the course of my career.
Since 2019, I help beginner busy 40+ desk-bound professionals, seniors, and anyone who wants to remove the guesswork from fitness and achieve their goals efficiently. With over 16 years of training and coaching experience, I understand both the challenges and rewards of building a healthy, balanced lifestyle. Nothing fulfills me more than guiding people who are ready to learn, grow, and improve their quality of life through fitness.
