Fitness Journey

Jade Rigas was born in Melbourne Australia but her parents came from Greece. She received her first certificate through ISSA and started working as a trainer immediately. She continued to work as a trainer, actress and fitness model and went on to further her education by obtaining her next personal trainer certificate through NASM. Since then she received several other specializations under NASM such as Women’s Fitness Specialist, Fitness Nutrition Specialist, Stress gets Personal and is currently studying NASM’s Business Accelerator.  Other passions include her love for animals, working out, music, singing and dance, hanging out with her dog and 2 kitties, going to the movies and going to nice restaurants for yummy food and being with good friends.

I have learned from the hundreds of clients I have trained over the years that staying active is the best way to ward off joint pain and gaining weight. Whether you are brand new to the gym, or struggling to rise above fitness plateaus; I am here to provide the guidance needed to help achieve your goal. My goal is to create an avenue of accountability to ensure your success in whatever your endeavor.

With over 9 years of personal training experience, Matthew understands what it takes to set and reach your health and fitness goals.  He has experience helping clients with anything from improving A1C scores to setting lifting records to entering physique competitions.  Above all else, Matthew believes that training and nutrition coaching should be sustainable and enjoyable for the client.

My main focus as your personal trainer will be to help you move and feel better for the rest of your life! I began working in the fitness industry 6 years ago and have found myself working more and more with women pre and post-natal after having two of my own. I enjoy helping you feel better and have customized my training style to fit many needs including stretching, kinesio taping, weight training, and cross-training with other fitness activities.
