With 15 years of training experience, I've mainly worked with clients who are looking to improve their sport performance and stay injury free.
My training approach has helped my clients to improve their mind-body connection through a specialized approach to their fitness routine. I believe that personal training gives you a clear road map on how to improve your weak links in order to predict training outcomes.
Training Philosophy:
I have dedicated myself to helping people move, feel, and play better for over 15 years. The complexity of the human body and the physical capacities needed for athletes to achieve gold performances continue to fascinate and drive my passion as a trainer, performance coach, and educator. My goal is to teach people how to increase their movement capacity in order to optimize their performance in sports or activities while reducing pain and chances of injury.
My training approach focuses on building a solid foundation of mobility and stability before implementing complex movement patterns that will maximize sport specific demands. I blend Fascial Stretch Therapy (FST) and ELDOA posture into all programs to restore function in the fascial network affecting all range of motion. Additionally, functional movement assessments (TPI & FMS) are used to assess exercise technique, establish strength baselines, identify physical limitations, and collect data used for custom program design.
This training approach ensures that all clients will learn and understand the safest and most effective fitness solutions in order to achieve their goals. It will empower them to take command of their health and wellness. Because fitness is not just a phase, it's a lifelong journey.

Client Testimonial
"Working with Eric has transformed the way I train. Full Stop. He has helped me to better understand connections in the body, balance in movement and how to build strength from the core outward. I feel stronger, healthier and more resilient than ever. I’m also hitting the ball further on the golf course which doesn’t hurt either. His approach is flexible and tailored to your needs and the results speak for themselves." - Tim M.
