About
MY name is Bernadette and I mentor and coach individuals to help them lose weight and develop a healthy lifestyle. My journey into this work was partly inspired by my love for play. As a kid my mother had to get a bell which she would ring to signal it was time to come in. Usually, I was up a tree, or playing a mean game of "man-hunt". At 13 I started with a "record" of Jane Fonda which I'd do, barefoot, in my living room. At 16, I got a "free pass" to the local gym and fell in love, for me the gym was an extension of play. Since I couldn't afford the gym membership, I got my AFAA license to teach aerobics. From there, I got hired at the Downtown Athletic Club in NYC where I was inspired to pursue my personal training license. For me, the gym allowed me to hold on to the feeling of "play" I adored as a youth. At a certain point, I made a vow to take care of myself as best as I could for myself. My dedication to health led me to inspire others to care for themselves. I love working with people who have a serious desire to change their life. I have met and continue to meet the most inspirational people through my profession. I truly love my work and love to be in the gym. I work out for an hour everyday, spend four hours training clients, and then spend the rest of my day furthering my education, now in a Master's program at CUNY. I understand that a dedication to fitness is difficult with the daily stresses, but when dedicate yourself to healthy life, I assure you that your fitness and your health will improve as well as your personal well-being. I build personalized training programs for each of my clients based on their needs. All you have to do is walk through the door and I will do the rest! My job is to ensure you get the best session for your time and money.
