I am an ACE Certified Health Coach, and a GrowNYC Certified Farmer. I love educating and inspiring others. I am a professor at SUNY Sullivan, I hold a doctorate in Veterinary Science & Food Technology and I am a NYS certified science teacher. I am currently living my dream, managing my own sustainable farm in the Catskills, and providing a holistic health coaching, fitness classes, nutritionally healing cooking classes, prepared meals & microgreens to my community and clients. All my farm efforts are dedicated to my mother Rosa Maria, my father Mario, and grandmother Rosa, R.I.P. All I have, all I am, all I know is thanks to them. My sustainable farm is providing me the means to keep their knowledge, natural remedies and recipes alive, turning the sadness of their loss into something beautiful that blooms every day. Is for all these reasons that I named my farm "SPRING FARM where happiness blooms every day". I Thank you all for allowing me to share my family knowledge, my heritage and the fruits of my efforts with you.

My favorite client story

Client Testimonial > Garima Jain - Full Time Mother & Wife, West New York, NJ
" My father had cardiac bypass a year ago and suddenly his blood pressure started shooting up to 170 to 180 mmHg systolic. I talked to doctors and they increased the medication but nothing seemed to be working. Thanks to Sandra my father's blood pressure decreased! Mrs. Weiss suggested rigorous dietary changes at first and easy but healthy daily diet to continue later on. His blood pressure came down to ~160mm Hg in a day and within normal in four days. He still follows the suggested diet and is living a better life with minimal medication thanks to Sandra and her expertise."

My favorite exercise

I love to provide a holistic experience when it comes to training.
My client testimonial sums it all. I can't wait to work with you.
"For too many years I was a working mom, took care of everyone else, and neglected my own health. With your class and counseling, I feel like I can regain my health and enjoy an active retirement. Your class is so convenient, flexible, and provides the right balance of strength, aerobics, and flexibility training. I wish I had given it a try a long time ago! Thank you for offering it. I know you do it more as a community service and you truly enjoy helping others. I look forward to partaking more of your healthful living activities!" Lan Seto, Former Head of Credit Management - Captives, Royal Bank of Canada, NJ
