MY PHILOSOPHY

It has always been important to me to work actively with my clients and patients rather than just working on them. I am happy to help you achieve your goals – with motivation and expertise!

My goal is to help you reach your full potential and show you how strong you really are.

My expertise ranges from the area of performance enhancement, sport-specific or simply in everyday life, to the treatment of chronic complaints of the musculoskeletal system, which have arisen, for example, from previous injuries. Mobility training, as well as targeted strengthening exercises, are as important basic elements, always part of the cooperation with me.

All of us, not just athletes, benefit from a strong, efficient body in our daily lives!

What I want to pass on to you, I also live myself. Among my greatest passions is strength training, and one of my greatest skills is customizing exercises to fit you and your needs perfectly. Strength training brings health benefits for everyone if it is done (correctly)!

Cooperation with my team, which consists of experts in the fields of performance diagnostics, training, rehab and nutrition , is very important to me! There is often talk of “holistic” treatment, but then the implementation fails. We want to counteract this by regularly exchanging expertise and thus broadening our field of vision!

MY STORY

  • 2010 Matura at the Dominican High School

  • Since 2014 freelance personal trainer at the INJOY fitness center in Vienna

Until I discovered my passion for strength training, I was rather unsportsmanlike until I was 17 years old.

It was only through strength training that I really discovered the joy of exercise and that’s why I want to pass on this passion, which comes with countless health and mental benefits, to as many people as possible. For every person there is a type of sport or exercise that they enjoy and I will be happy to help you experience that!

So in 2013, after a long stay abroad in Costa Rica, I decided about my passion for strength training Personal trainer to become. After two years of professional experience, I realized that I wanted to know a lot more in this area and so I decided to study physiotherapy to become a movement expert!

My training for Physiotherapist (BSc) I graduated from the FH Campus Wien in 2018. In 2018-2019, I was able to gain professional experience as an employed therapist at the Stockerau Health Center in the fields of orthopaedics, traumatology, sports physiotherapy, geriatrics and neurology.

I have been doing my own sport, bodybuilding, since 2013, which allowed me to develop my very good body image. I have also been taking part in bodybuilding competitions myself since 2019. Therefore, I am of course very happy if I can accompany you as a personal trainer or as a physiotherapist in the field of weight training and bodybuilding.
