If you're looking to get into fitness or get back into it, but don't know where to start, reach out to Dan now--he's your guy! Just text him, explain your situation, and see how he can help. Dan is one of the best trainers in LA County. During the pandemic, I completely stopped working out for four years. After countless mornings of waking up with back pain and feeling sluggish, I knew I had to make a change. I tried getting back into it--I got a gym membership, worked out with friends, and even reached out to other trainers. Nothing kept me motivated--until I found Dan. It's only been a few months, but I've already noticed huge improvements in my strength, energy, and overall fitness. So what makes Dan the best? First, he has over 12 years of experience training people of all backgrounds and fitness levels. With more experience comes a better understanding of how to adapt workouts, prevent injuries, and help clients overcome obstacles to reach their goals. Whatever your situation is and whatever your fitness goals are, Dan has the experience he needs to help you. As a trainer, Dan is very professional and passionate about fitness and training. He customizes personal training and diet plans to each of his clients and tracks their progress weekly. He genuinely cares and wants to help his clients. He pays attention and adjusts your form, which reduces injury risk and helps you get the most out of your workouts. If you're looking for a trainer who's knowledgeable, supportive, and truly invested in helping you reach your goals, I highly recommend Dan. With his guidance, you'll see results faster, train smarter, and feel better than ever. Your future self will thank you. read more

Working with Daniel has been such a great experience. When I first reached out to him with my fitness goals, he took the time to listen and work with me to craft a personalized plan. He's been incredibly supportive, helping me steadily progress toward those goals. What truly sets him apart from other trainers is his ability to adapt or adjust the sessions. He really takes the time to hear your thoughts and then tailors your workouts to match. He is also very accommodating with personal schedules so you're able to workout at a time that works best for you. If you're considering personal training, look no further than Daniel! read more

When I first came to DB back in October of 2021, I was only looking to shed some pandemic weight and hopefully slim down a bit for my engagement photos.. I was somewhere around 260lbs, had no background in weightlifting and exercise was like a foreign language to me. Fast forward to May 2022 and I've lost 50lbs and I have realized goals beyond just wedding related things.. My mental health is a complete contrast to where I was before linking up with DB. The work you put into your health bleeds over into other aspects of your life.. I have more energy, more drive, and a passion to live my life that was missing before. I'm convinced it was fate I was able to link up with coach and I'll be grateful for his patience and belief in me for a long time. I'm telling y'all if you need that push in your life but you think weightlifting is so overwhelming and you lack that confidence.. THIS. GUY. IS. YOUR. MAN. If you're intermediate and need the guidance and motivation to get to the next level.. THIS. GUY. IS. YOUR. MAN. And even if you're and gym rat just looking just to shed a couple pounds on some Coachella weekend vibes.., THIS. GUY. IS. YOUR. MAN. Let my guy help y'all!! read more

I've worked with Daniel for three months now- and am continuing to go strong with commitment to (our) personal training and in my physical abilities. It's been a blessing training with him. I reached my initial goal sooner than I expected with Daniel's guidance and as he always reminds me: the investment and effort I put into it. Logistically, I've lost many inches, a healthy and steady 10+ lbs, and my form is solid 75% of the time. More importantly for me, it's been a holistic experience as it's been a very personal part of my journey and Daniel has held space for the ups and downs while simultaneously anchoring me in the progress of the physical present with weight lifting. His focus is always sharp, perceptiveness on, and the bigger picture of his clients' goals in sight. I've had the opportunity to overhear him work with a range of clients- younger and older, male and female- including my own friends and family, and he meets people where they're at. His ability to use his own experiences and knowledge to relate and relay the why's and how to's of his training methods continues to build my trust in his expertise and makes personal training that much more fulfilling. I have recommended training with Daniel to friends, family, and coworkers; I definitely recommend him to those who are reading reviews on him right now- he's a whole package, balanced trainer. Daniel is always listening, so communicate with him what you want, what you don't know, all of it because he will figure it out with you. Joyful wishes on your journey~ read more

I woke up feeling skinny AF, and it is because of Daniel! I started going to Daniel in August because I had just turned 40 and was a whopping 167 pounds. I was super intimidated to begin working out. I went to a consultation and measured my body fat percentage and took my weight. Super embarrassing, but it made me want to make some changes. I began going every Tuesday and Thursday to train with Daniel, and then worked my way up to going an additional day on my own for cardio. My goal weight was 145 pounds and I slowly started to see the weight come off. Daniel is super patient, and walks me through each exercise. He will definitely work you, but you feel great after each session. I am proud to say that I have dropped down to 147 pounds and my body fat percentage has gone down! I am stronger now and feel more confident in my clothes. If you are looking for an AWESOME personal trainer, Daniel is your guy!! read more

Finding a way to bring fitness back into my life had been very challenging as a new-ish mom of two (under two!), but the convenient gym location and Daniel's accommodating nature has made it easy. If there's any question as to whether you should hire a personal trainer, it will absolutely be the best investment you can make in yourself, so long as you find someone like Daniel who will approach it as a comprehensive program. The sessions themselves are a guaranteed great workout, plus you'll address nutrition and finding ways to stay active on non-training days. I've been training with Daniel for nearly 6 months, and my initial goal for simple weight loss (crushing it, by the way) has evolved into strength goals that I never would have imagined- and this is because he's pushed my potential and encouraged me to see/test what I'm capable of. As a nurse, I believe that good health behaviors are contagious- Daniel is full of positive energy and clearly enjoys his work. I'm grateful for the enthusiasm I've (re)gained to stay active and am setting this as the new norm for my family. read more

Daniel is the best. When I started training with him over a year ago, I had no relationship to working out in a gym at all. I'm actually astounded at how he got me to embrace fitness and healthy living so seamlessly into my life. He has a positive and calming presence but is high energy when you need motivation. He gets you excited about working towards your goals. He's very intuitive to your specific needs and attentive throughout the entire session. I complained in the beginning and was nervous, especially with heavy lifting but now I look forward to being challenged by him because I completely trust that he knows what I can handle. From the first day, he's been focused on safety and getting me to feel comfortable. Since then, every session is different and fun and I never feel bored. I highly recommend working with Daniel because of his knowledge, patience, professionalism and his genuine love of his job! read more
