David Hannah, born and raised in Southwest Philly, overcame the challenges of growing up in a community impacted by drugs, gangs, and violence. Driven by a passion for self-improvement and a deep understanding of the social determinants of health, David turned to education and wellness as a way to transform his life. He earned his personal training certifications during the COVID-19 pandemic, building a roster of virtual clients, and holds a Bachelor’s degree in Sociology from the University of Delaware. Currently, David is pursuing a Master’s in Health and Wellness Management at the University of Cincinnati, while balancing family life and a career in Business Administration.

In 2022, David faced a life-altering event when he suffered ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes caused by hypertension at the age of 41. His recovery from this experience deepened his commitment to holistic wellness, recognizing that true health extends beyond physical fitness. David's mission now includes raising awareness about the high rates of hypertension among African American men and promoting a balanced approach to health.

Today, David continues to train clients and conduct community workshops, advocating for holistic health that addresses physical, mental, and social well-being. As a motivational speaker, he shares his personal story of resilience to inspire others to prioritize their health and pursue a life of purpose.
