My -ever evolving- fitness career.


My fitness career has been an evolving process. From gym member, instructor, trainer, continuous education provider, certifications master trainer, international presenter to an aspiring fitness competitor. Each step was motivated by the struggle me, and other people, had of not seen results for the amount of effort applied.

That’s how my Logical Fitness Knowledge developed. Taking me to create innovative projects like Fitness Accountability®, Intelligent Movement®, and Abdominal Factory®; that have been presented at corporate and fitness events, as well as, being applied to my teaching skills. From Sting to Mariah Carey, from Toulouse to Sacramento, from Milano to San Juan, all have benefited from me focusing on understanding how the body works as an effective living machine. You can too!
I have years of on-going movement research learning from great mentors like Kathy Smith, Tom Seabourne, Gin Miller, Tamilee Webb, Rodney Yee, Rachel Brice, Douglas Brook, Amani, Juan Carlos Santana, Len Kravitz, Billy Blanks, Tom Baechle, and Josh Taylor to name a few; as well as, from top publications like NSCA Journal, IDEA Fitness Journal, ACE Certified News, AFAA American Fitness, NSCA’s “Essentials of Strength Training & Conditioning”, Franklin’s “Conditioning for Dance”, Iyengar’s “Yoga: the path to holistic health”, Tosca Reno’s “The Eat Clean Diet”, and Al Huan’s “Thinking Body Dancing Mind”. And this learning never ends.

My acquired fitness knowledge is documented through top credentials from the National Strength & Conditioning Association (NSCA), the American Council on Exercise (ACE), and the Aerobic and Fitness Association of America (AFAA).  Others include Stott Pilates, Spinning, ISKA Kickboxing, SCW Yoga Fundamentals, QiFORZE, and many more modalities.

As a pioneer in the Caribbean basin region, got to be the 1st and only BOSU master trainer, the 1st Zumba instructor (#830 in the world), held 5 Stott Pilates courses, and conducted the 1st QiDANCE foundation course as a master trainer. Locally, in the Island of Puerto Rico, was blessed enough to have presented at the most prestigious locations; from the National Museum of Arts, National Fine Art Center, Old San Juan’s Historic La Puntilla Arsenal to the Pontific Catholic University in Ponce and Mayaguez, the University of Puerto Rico’s Mayaguez campus (RUM), and the National Conservatory of Music.

I am, just, a former publicist (MBA) and interior designer (AS) turned international fitness expert, committed to empower people achieve control of their lives through their bodies by providing an integral approach to wellness.
