Trainers in Ridgewood

“Matt is a highly knowledgeable and personable personal trainer. When I began my weight loss and fitness journey, I had no idea where or how to start, so choosing The Fitness Academy for guidance was truly a life-altering decision. Matt was incredibly encouraging during challenging moments and kept me going even when I didn’t think I could.

With his support, I lost 60 pounds and surpassed a personal goal of fitting into a jacket I had purchased. What sets Matt apart is that he makes the experience relatable. He understands that we’re human and can’t be perfect all the time. He takes the time to understand how each client and their body works, tailoring individualized plans to meet their needs. He also considers each client’s personality to create sessions that genuinely work for them.

Matt makes himself available outside the studio if you have questions or need accountability, which made a huge difference for me. He taught me everything I know, and I didn’t truly realize how strong I had become until I stopped working out. If you feel stuck, unsure about fitness, or need extra guidance to reach your goals, you will not regret your decision to start at The Fitness Academy.“

“I was there this morning and was helped out a lot with my questions by the girl at the front desk. The gym also looks really clean so props to that. I love this crunch location!“

“Alessandro is the best! I have had chronic hip pain for years that went away after working with Alessandro. He is extremely knowledgeable! What sets him apart is that he gives his classes exercises that are functional and healing for the body. I cannot recommend him enough!!“
