About Me
I help people get from can't back to can. I was that kid in gym class who couldn't do a push-up or climb the rope. I began to train to become a better martial artist. Eventually I became a competitive MMA fighter and a trainer. I also teach kickboxing, MMA, grappling, and self-defense. Fitness training can make you healthier, happier, and more capable of being the person you enjoy being. Contact me and we'll get started.

Peter is a pleasure to work with. Super knowledgeable and can modify to make anything work. He’s is very professional and makes the hour fly by. He’s the perfect balance of pushing you but knowing when it’s enough. Always keeps you coming back for more!

I have only been working with Peter since May. He is an excellent Pilates instructor. I used to have frozen shoulder issues as I do a lot of repetitive tasks that strain my shoulders. Since I’ve been in his classes my shoulder issues are gone. I also tried his kick boxing class. It was lots of fun and something that I would do again. I’m very happy that Peter came highly recommended when the gym reopened from Covid otherwise I wouldn’t have known what I was missing.

I have been working out with Peter for almost 3 years. I am always looking forward to my next workout because Peter keeps them challenging, exciting, and focused on my goals, even though I am not a quick learner. Peter listens, observes, and finds a unique approach to guide each of his clients on their fitness journey. Give Peter a call, you won't regret it.

Pete is an outstanding fight coach!!! I have been taken under his wing and have since refined my approach to fighting/striking, MMA, and even jiu jitsu, with his advice, instruction, and demonstration on the floor. He's built up my core strength as well, with the incorporation of Pilates and combinations we perform while training. He is also a great resource for incorporating "what works right" to optimize my form and performance in fights, by educating me on different martial arts styles, finding my own style as a fighter. His encouragement has been exceptional, helping me re-find the passion I have for MMA, and feeling more bad-ass every day! Thank you Pete, for being an amazing coach and friend!!!

Outstanding master of his craft; incredibly bright with a treasure trove of health and fitness knowledge; and a warm and spontaneous personality that makes workouts fun. Peter is brimming with the brains that can help anyone achieve the brawn. He is the Real Deal and the standard by which any trainer should be measured.

I cannot say enough good things about Peter. He is knowledgeable, understanding, personable and entertaining. Peter really helped me with my old injuries and is actively working with me to teach me how to prevent new ones. In addition, he is very versatile and can do any type of workout with his clients. And last but not least, he is representing lifetime as a whole business - giving very practical recommendations about other services and classes. I would strongly recommend him to other members

I have been working with Peter for 8 months, since joining Life Time Fitness. He is professional in every way and very personable. But most important, I see excellent results! He has helped me extensively with my Pilates, created workout routines for me in the gym and and has offered tips on nutrition. I am 71 and feel younger and in better shape than 10 years ago. Finally, I have been using one-on-one trainers for over 15 years and Peter is the best!

I was introduced to Peter during my onboarding session at Lifetime. Since then I’ve taken many pilates reformer classes as well as personal training sessions with him. His is depth of knowledge and natural teaching ability shine through in every class. He has the ability to break down movements and exercises to allow you to truly understand what to do and why to do it. Really listens to your goals. Truly fortunate to be able to work with him!
Patricia R.
I came to Peter with a very specific challenge. I had been diagnosed with post polio syndrome years ago which limits my ability to exercise. As The pandemic began to wane, I knew that I had to do something for unaffected muscles or lose more of my ability to get around. Peter was specifically recommended and when asked, he took my challenging situation head on. Peter has helped me to find a way forward. I appreciate that Peter listens closely when I hit a wall and a workout becomes uncomfortable. In a partnership we analyze what we need to change. Peter’s skill, knowledge, and patience helps me to feel comfortable with the routine we have developed.
