Reviews
I have been working with Shawn for close to two years and I would highly recommend Shawn to anyone who not only wants to work on their physique, but wants to look at the root causes of why such a goal has not been achieved. Shawn is highly intelligent, well versed in nutrition and supplements, and most importantly empathetic. Shawn understands the challenges we all face in our quest to improve our minds and bodies. Shawn is not your typical trainer. A session with Shawn is not going to consist of lift this and lift that and nothing else. Shawn looks at your life circumstances, your nutrition, your genetics, your obstacles, and many more things. In my case, I have suffered from mental illness for the majority of my life. Shawn started to look at the biological root causes of my symptoms through review of my diet and calorie intake, several in depth tests, and referrals to additional professionals who could help me on my journey to a better body and mind. Shawn has graciously made himself available to me on off hours in order to provide additional support to me. I have made great progress with Shawn and honestly have never encountered a trainer quite like him. I am extremely grateful that I came across him and would highly recommend him to anyone who is seeking a full body and mind strengthening.

I started working with Shawn two years ago, not knowing much about fitness and just wanting to "look better."
After learning about my fitness goals, Shawn was able to customize a program for me.
Shawn is unlike any other personal trainer--because he looks beyond your appearance and also considers your overall health and holistic well-being.
For instance, I work 80 hours a week in a high-stress environment, and my sleep quality was awful. Shawn realized that and introduced me to meditation techniques, which have tremendously improved my sleep quality and overall energy.
Over the course of two years, Shawn helped me gain 10 lbs of muscles while maintaining my waist measurements. (It blows my mind.)
That's why I would gladly recommend Shawn to anyone interested in looking (and feeling) better.

Shawn is terrific! He is very knowledgeable and takes a holistic approach to addressing all of your issues and concerns. I have worked with him off and on for about 5 years now, ever since I was diagnosed as prediabetic based on my HbA1c number. He helped me get my number down to where my doctor said I was no longer prediabetic! He did this by first assessing all aspects of my life (work, personal, mental, physical, emotional) and then making changes to my diet and recommending some great supplements to enhance my results, which I have been maintaining. At first I was resistant to the changes because I didn't want to give up my delicious fatty junk foods, but he took the time to explain the science behind the changes he was asking me to make, what the foods he was asking me to eat would do for me, and frankly I feel much better now and have more energy and vitality! He has also changed my body through different types of exercises with phenomenal results. I feel like I have a new lease on life! I've also had the great fortune of attending a few of his lectures throughout the years, and every time I come away with so much knowledge and a renewed sense of purpose and inspiration to be my best self. This guy really knows what he's doing! Consider yourself lucky if you get to work with him. I highly recommend him without hesitation.

Since I started his holistic program (which includes not just training and nutrition, but also managing your sleep and mental health), my energy is through the roof, my immune system is much stronger, and I'm losing weight easily. I couldn't recommend his program more, worth every penny.

I can’t say enough about Shawn! He is truly the best and most knowledgeable trainer and holistic professional I’ve ever worked with. He not only knows about fitness and training, but also amazing at nutrition and health issues. Because he truly cares and wants clients to see results, he spends a lot of time on the assessment phase. Shawn took the time to assess everything I was going through (even with my emotional and mental health!) and put together a comprehensive personalized program to get me on track with the fastest, healthiest route to long-term results. I am sad I don’t live in LA so I can work with him for a lifetime. His clients are all lucky to work with him!
