“Superlative coach and trainer, Leo identifies physical limitations and tailors workouts towards avoiding injury and improving strength and function. I started working with Leo just prior to an injection for piriformis syndrome. The pain limited my function tremendously. His excellent practical understanding of physiology and kinesiology helped me slowly strengthen the uninvolved muscles before the procedure and then slowly posturally adjust, strengthen and develop new habits after the procedure. Now pain free and a lot stronger, I unreservedly recommend Leo to friends, family and patients.”

“I was introduced to Leo in my search for a professional and certified trainer. He turned out to be amazing. He is knowledgeable, friendly, courteous, and most of all, patient. He gives thorough and easy-to-understand instruction, explanation and reasoning for all of the exercises he introduces to me. He monitors my performance during each exercise and asks for feedback about how I'm feeling during and after to ensure I'm doing them correctly and getting the most benefit from each movement. Leo is highly motivated and his energy is infectious. I really enjoy and look forward to my sessions with Leo. (He also gives great local restaurant recommendations!)”

“Leo has done a great job and you should know his job was/is not an easy one. A client who has a torn rotator cuff (trying to hold off surgery), just beat cancer (for now) and has put together a program making me stronger, better, and improving each session we have. I am very grateful for the understanding of my goals and potentially a path to meet those goals and challenges established along the way. He has and is doing a great job as I continue to improve after every session we have.”

Leo has the mind of a scientist, and the soul of a healer. The extent of his knowledge of kinesiology and anatomy, and his ability to motivate is truly remarkable. He explains the purpose of each exercise, carefully observes its execution, continuously up-levels according to your goals, and he CARES, which inspires you to work harder. When you work with Leo you get stronger. Period. And you enjoy the process. After decades as a runner and dancer, and then a total hip replacement it was vitally important that I find someone I had confidence who could help me regain my strength, flexibility, and endurance. Leo is that person - for all the reasons above. I'm grateful for every session as I leave feeling stronger, flexible and confident. Leo is simply excellent.
