Meet your coaches

In today’s fitness world, aesthetics often take priority over health. At Gym-22, our mission is to guide you toward a healthy, sustainable approach to training, one where you learn to appreciate your body for what it can achieve, rather than constantly judging it. Strength, skill, and confidence develop naturally as you engage in activities that are challenging, enjoyable, and fun, with improved shape and fitness as a natural by-product of your progress.

Whether you train online or in-person, we focus on safe, progressive coaching, real accountability, and a supportive community, helping every trainee grow, challenge themselves, and truly enjoy the journey.
