Joe’s BIO.

He/Him/His

Prior to entering the fitness industry Joe spent five years in finance, but he always felt his strongest and most confident in the gym or on his yoga mat. Refusing to live a life he was no longer passionate about, he risked everything, uprooted his life from Boston, and moved to San Francisco to change the narrative. 

His official personal training career began at Equinox Sports Club in 2015, but his training knowledge and skills were amplified through his mentorship with DIAKADI. Joe coaches and educates his clients that exercise is just the tip of the iceberg as his training style and philosophy incorporates a holistic perspective of movement, mindfulness and nutrition in order to help others understand their own unique bodies and realize their ideal lifestyle. 

An avid learner, Joe always considers himself a student first, on a never-ending quest for knowledge. It’s not about being the best, but knowing the best methods. As a postural specialist, Joe understands how abdominal dysfunction contributes to low-back and neck pain. He's also aware of how improperly training muscles can lead to postural dysfunction. He continues to invest in various continuing education courses focused on program design and exercise technique to further customize and tailor his programs to each client’s needs.

Joe is Certified Personal Trainer through the National Academy of Sports Medicine, PN Level 1 Certified through Precision Nutrition as well as a 200-Hour Registered Vinyasa Yoga Teacher through Yoga Alliance. In addition to personal training, Joe is also a group fitness instructor having taught at the Assembly, Love Story Yoga, Orangetheory Fitness, Wheel House, and Rogue & Saint Fitness.  He is the embodiment of a true fitness professional using his business acumen to transform his passion for health, nutrition, and fitness into an entrepreneurial venture.

Joe is AMAZING!! ​He changed my life. ​I started training with him 4 months before my wedding and I couldn't be happier with my results. He listened to all my goals/needs ​and met or exceeded them. My expectations were blown ​straight out of the water. ​All my girlfriends marveled at the body he helped me develop and constantly asking me, "who my trainer is?". His breath of knowledge in body training is endless. Strength, balance and flexibility. Always something new and different keeping things engaging. Joe is in a league of his own.

I’ve been training with Joe for a while now, and he is by far the best trainer I’ve ever had. While he definitely pushes me to my limits, which is desired and appreciated, he does so in a way that is still friendly and inspiring. He checks in with me on my progress, and consistently asks for feedback on his sessions and methods. Even better, now that he’s a nutrition coach, he’s incorporated advice on top of our training so that I know I’m doing everything in and out of the gym to achieve my goals and be my best self.

Joe is an enthusiastic and knowledgeable trainer. He pushes me to do more than I ever thought I could accomplish. His workouts are unique and provide training I would not be able to do on my own. He always keeps the routines interesting and teaches me new techniques. Joe is encouraging and energetic without being an over-the-top drill sergeant. He also gives me nutrition advice to guide me in making the right diet choices to supplement my training. If seen significant change in my body after working out consistently with him. Joe has been instrumental in helping me reach my goals.
