Fitness and martial arts have been central to Vinny’s life since the age of 12. In 1983, he founded a successful self-defense business that he maintains to this day. For Vinny, being a personal trainer and self-defense instructor is not a hobby or a part-time job; it is a lifelong career and a lifestyle that he lives every day. Vinny also maintains his NASM (National Association of Sport Medicine) certificate as a Certified Personal Trainer.

Vinny’s primary desire is to pass on the extensive knowledge he has acquired over the decades to help others change their lives. Specifically, he focuses his expertise on training and motivating seniors and active adults over 50 by focusing on functional fitness, balance and stability. His approach helps seniors safely build core stability, strength, and power to improve mobility, reduce fall risk, maintain independence, and achieve their wellness goals.

When he is not teaching, Vinny enjoys spending time with his wife of 32 years and their three daughters, all of whom appreciate the importance-and the challenges- of maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
