What Clients Have to Say About Les
Les is extremely knowledgeable in all related to fitness. He has helped me with my diet as well as exercise. He is helping me with strength and movement. I am 73 years old.
~ Luis C
I started working with Les a little over a year ago. I came in after having injured myself for the 100th time running. I had little experience in the gym and was always a little intimidated by the experience. It wasn't too long after that initial visit that I was hooked. Working with Les has transformed my life. He has completely revamped the way I approach fitness.
He isn't a personal trainer he is a movement coach. Learning to move well made me much more comfortable in my body. I am faster, stronger, and leaner than I have ever been.
I came for a knee injury but stayed for the practice.
