About Michael
I began my career in group exercise when a Group Fitness Administrator approached me after an indoor cycle class and asked me if I’d be interested in becoming a cycle instructor. This offer was enthusiastically accepted and 23 years later the energy and passion of offering the best exercise class I can give is stronger than ever. With a never ending desire to grow, not only as an individual, but to also provide more substance to my cycle classes, I became certified by Mad Dogg Athletics' Spinning Instructor Program, earned my Personal Trainer certification through the American Council on Exercise (ACE), and soon after followed with Running Coach certification through the Road Runners Coaches of America (RRCA). Two of the most passionate programs I am certified in is the Les Mills Body Pump and Les Mills Body Combat programs.
