What Clients Are Saying
"I’ve had the pleasure of working with Yotam for the past 2 and a half years. I’d tried other trainers in the past, but wasn’t ever satisfied with the connection or the results. When I started experiencing back problems and general middle-age malaise, I decided to give a trainer one more try. I was immediately drawn to Yotam after observing him interact with others at the gym. His warmth and positive attitude were infectious. After just a few sessions, I quickly learned to value his core knowledge of fitness, commitment to my success and care for my physical and emotional well-being. His training extends beyond the sessions with personally designed workouts, nutrition consultation, and motivational check-ins. I’d never considered myself an athlete and found gyms to be a little intimidating.
After working with Yotam, fitness has become an incorporated part of my identity. From a vanity perspective, yes, my body has changed and I have received many compliments on the transformation. But the change runs deeper: I now feel more confident and comfortable in my skin. I feel healthier and more fit than I’ve ever been. We all deserve a Yotam to help us see our full potential.”

"I have always considered myself an active person, competing on several dance and cheer teams as a child all the way through college. But for many years after graduating, I found myself aimlessly wandering between studios and methods of training, lacking structure and an overall plan - that is until I met Yotam. Admittedly, I knew Yotam for about two years before signing up for training, but it's worth mentioning that even as just an acquaintance, Yotam was warm, friendly, and always available to give me advice or answer any fitness/health questions I may have had. At the end of last year, the stars aligned and Yotam began training at a gym across the street from my office. Of course, I immediately signed up for both the gym and the personal training sessions. Training with Yotam has been a complete game changer.
Every week, I look forward to three sessions with a trainer, health guru, nutrition expert, and a friend - all rolled into one. Each session has a new, challenging plan and Yotam is always there to support and encourage me to push myself as hard as I can. He’s even helped me stick to this plan while traveling for work - something I’ve always struggled with. Yotam may be kind and caring, but trust me, he really knows his stuff. It’s certainly a privilege to be advised by a true expert in their field. It has been eight months, and, though I did not set any aesthetic goals, there is a visible difference in the way I look. More importantly though, I feel healthier and stronger than ever and I have Yotam to thank for that.”

Since the days of middle-school gym class, I never understood what was "fun" about fitness and, no surprise, I never considered myself an athletic person. As I aged, just turned 40, I realized proactive investment in my health, regardless of the fun factor, was essential. Over the past 10 years, I have had many positive experiences with different trainers that helped me make up for lost time. Yotam, however, goes beyond and has provided the best overall experience.
What makes Yotam a great trainer?
1) A balanced approach to overall well being: physical, emotional, diet and rest
2) A deep knowledge of the body with a focus on conditioning for endurance, strength, and flexibility
3) Encouragement and coaching to exercise on my own by providing personalized exercise plans for outdoor bodyweight routines, and
4) A respectful character to effectively, with care, motivate and push me past my comfort zone.
I still won't say fitness is fun, but I will say I truly enjoy my time with Yotam and look forward to our sessions. He's inspired me to take ownership of my health and as a result I am eating right, sleeping better, feeling my best and looking great.
