I am a native Austrian and have been teaching fitness classes and privately consulting since 2000. I am certified through the National Strength Professionals Association (NSPA). My goal is to motivate and inspire every person I work with.  As a marathoner and triathlete, I believe that fitness is a lifestyle – not a short term fad diet or a one-time event such as a marathon or triathlon.  Next Level Fitness implies that getting to the ‘next level’ takes discipline and pushing past your comfort level. I can help motivate you to do exactly that! 

As a trainer/coach, it is my job to listen to your goals and build a program that is customized to get you that level!  In addition, I must challenge and push you beyond your comfort zone to bring actual and real results – this includes strengthening your core, your upper and lower body, and building a strong cardiovascular system. 

My philosophy is to help individuals take control of their health and lives by empowering them to eat properly and develop effective exercise plans that will keep them fit for life.  Motivation is critical to all proper fitness programs.  I build on that philosophy by encouraging group fitness training and look for all to succeed and meet their personal goals.

I believe in activating your core to strengthen your body and ultimately your mind.  I utilize a variety of equipment and techniques including:  stability balls, free weights, jump ropes, and bench work, to name a few!  Once you have increased your metabolism and built your strength, you will see and feel long-term gains!

I truly believe that:

If you watch what you eat and drink, you may lose some weight.

If you work out regularly, you might see a change in your body.

If you do both, you will be AMAZED!
