From the outset, I made it quite clear what my consistency (or lack thereof) and training…read more"schedule" would be able to be - it was still the pandemic recovery period / I was in the middle of secretly working on my master's degree / full time job / part time job - and Coach John did not at all judge me for it. Zero. Complete support and encouragement even if I skipped reps that week or only put in 5 literal minutes of training. Since 2019, I followed others on Instagram and noticed a trend of folks posting really cool handstands and that several of them tagged John. Intrigued, in 2021, I finally asked Sean (now Coach Sean) who this mysterious person was. Oh, what I didn't realize was the rabbit hole that handstands are. I've been [very sporadically] attempting to nail my handstand since 2015 and let's just say I had a complete mental block on it, as well as some physical limitations. Other fitness instructors I've had has taken more of a conventional/traditional approach to trying to teach me, but alas, this was not something I could keep up on. I had plateaued and desperately needed someone who could meet me on my level and address very specific issues. Now, is learning to handstand a NEED? I guess not and some people have curiously inquired as to why I'm doing this as a full-fledged adult who presumably will never need this skill in my life (since I'm not a circus artist). Let me tell you my bucket list goal - HANDSTANDS AROUND THE WORLD WHEN I TRAVEL! Yes, I mean it. Who is going to help me get there? JOHN WILL!!! John has extensive knowledge and a depth of understanding of body mechanics and movement intelligence. He's also 500% patient with every single person that joins his trusty crew of awesome movers! I absolutely cannot recommend anyone else other than John to see you through your movement and handstand journey. Other reviews have mentioned how he creates highly personalized and individual programs for each person - this is right. I must confess I work better with only one or two intentions per month so while I blithely throw his program to the wind, I really do still try to "do the homework" and focus on my small steps to progress. Words cannot express how grateful I am to have met John. If you've been waiting for a sign to learn handstands, THIS IS IT so please contact John right away!

Before finding Gil, I had tried everything: HIIT, running, barre, pole fitness, pickleball, but…read morenothing really stuck. I had a sports background in high school, but once the reality of adult life set in with work, cooking, laundry, and other responsibilities, my motivation was lost. I decided to Google and Yelp "personal trainers" to see what was out there, and that's when I came across Gil and Dynamix Health and Fitness. My husband was also interested in getting back into shape, so he reached out, and we set up a consultation together. We have been with Gil for a little over 2 years now, and from day one he and his team have been welcoming, supportive, and genuinely invested in our goals. Gil's workouts are straightforward and effective. He uses tried-and-true exercises that are proven to build strength safely, help us progress, and focus on the fundamentals, so we actually know what we're doing and can see results. He also provides nutrition guidance, teaches proper technique, and builds custom workouts that adjust as our goals evolve. All our sessions are 1-on-1, with constant encouragement and positive feedback. Gil and his team are approachable, caring, and it honestly feels like training with friends who want you to succeed. We highly recommend Gil and his team!

I highly recommend Dynamix if you want consistency and results!

I'm now an NPC Judge and currently training in Jiu Jitsu. I had known of Jed for a while before finally booking a 30-minute session to give him a test run. With no prep time, he put together four exercises on the spot. After the first one, I looked at him and said, "Sign me up for five more sessions--immediately." Jed brings his A-game to every session. He's constantly pushing me to be a better athlete, always thinking of new ways to challenge and improve me. He's motivating, professional, and always respects my time--he answers my messages promptly and never lets personal distractions interfere with training. What really sets him apart? He's never negative. He doesn't talk down to people, doesn't gossip--just pure, focused energy. Training with Jed is a breath of fresh air. He's a keeper, and I'm keeping him as my trainer.

All his plans are straight forward nothing fancy and all the basics that you need. We made a lot of progress in the 1 year we have worked together and the two shows I competed in we made improvements on so I look forward to the future to see how much I can progress. Everything we have done has worked so as long as you are putting in the effort he will see it and does acknowledge it. He is very old school and blunt and can have mood swings at times and doesn't censor himself so if you can't handle criticism or don't have thick skin and get emotional I would not go to him. Overall happy with having him as coach and he is very affordable. And I would recommend him to anyone.

I met Bill Maeda thirteen years ago. Our first encounter is a pretty amazing story that we both…read morelove sharing with people! I was at home on a Sunday afternoon, lying on the couch, procrastinating while watching TV, deciding whether or not to go to hit the gym that day. All of a sudden, this totally ripped, super cool looking Japanese guy appeared on this Spy Series television show, and I got immediately inspired and decided at that exact moment that I needed to stop procrastinating and get off the couch and go work out. I left the house and walked to the gym. I took the escalator up and as I got off at the top, I literally bumped into this totally ripped, super cool looking Japanese guy and realized that it was the same guy I had just seen on TV ! We have been friends ever since, and Bill has been my exclusive trainer since then. What I love about being trained by Bill is that he knows the importance of incorporating NEW things into your workout realm every few months. It has set the bar high for me every year of the thirteen that I have been blessed to call Bill my friend and Trainer. Bill was the first person I recall to ever say the words"kettle-bell" in Hawaii ! I am so grateful to him for always re-callibrating my whole program and way of thinking every few months since I started training under him. It keeps things from getting stale and routine and well... boring ! The body and brain really only respond and change when we give them new and challenging things to do, and in my opinion, no one teaches those principles while incorporating that theory through fresh and challenging training sessions better than Bil Maeda. Here we are all these years later, and Bill i s still inspiring me, as he did that day on TV, to get off that couch and get a great workout in every day !

I was first introduced to Bill Maeda, the man behind FitPro, two years ago by a good friend who had…read morebeen working out with Bill for several years. My first question to him was, "How can you have worked out the with same trainer for 3 years and not be bored?" My personal history is riddled with workout regimens that have come and gone because, in the end, they just get boring. Bill has kept things fresh for two years, with the goal of making me "unbreakable" -- strong and injury-free. We started with foundational exercises (push-ups, pull-ups, planks, step-ups, lunges, twisting core exercises, etc.) to make sure that I had a solid base of strength before moving on to more dynamic movements and heavier weights. At every step of the way, Bill focused on teaching strict form for every exercise. I share his belief that maintaining good form, with light or heavy weights, ensures that one gets the most out of every exercise and avoids injury. In the last two years, Bill has mixed in kettlebells (thruster, long cycle, snatch), traditional power lifting (squat, bench, deadlift), punching & kicking, sandbags, weighted swinging clubs, body weight movements, and a variety of isometric exercises. I participate in a variety of other sports and events (soccer, triathlons, obstacle races, endurance events), and Bill designs my workouts to help me prepare specifically for them.

I started going to Kareen 7 months ago - now I am doing weekly mini triathalons!! I just climbed Kokohead, did a 1600m swim AND did a 45 minute spin class today!. No kidding, I have come a LONG way! And 7 months ago I could barely touch my toes and was 50lbs overweight.

Very nice and professional set up and studio. I had never done Pilates before so this was a new experience for me. Wow. Totally blown away by the 1 hour session/ class I took. You can totally feel what Pilates can do for you in just one session and I now see why people go back. You learn things you didn't know how to do and use muscles you didn't know you had (or at least I didn't). I wasn't quite able to keep up with everyone else but that didn't matter at all. The owner Kareen, who runs the place, is also awesome at working with your schedule and had multiple classes and times to choose from. I highly recommend this place!

I asked for low impact and he's put together a varied set of sessions using different equipment and modifies it depending on what's going on with me on the particular day. After a just a week, I am seeing results -- I finally see my abs! The differentiating factor to me is that Kyle is focused on bettering the overall health and fitness of his clients and takes a whole-body approach to training.
