Want to try calisthenics, but don’t know where to start?
I’ve been exactly where you are—curious about calisthenics but unsure where to begin. Years ago, I started training with zero gymnastics experience and no coach or real guide, just a drive to unlock cool moves I thought at first were impossible. Now, after nearly a decade of grinding, learning, and competing, I coach athletes, busy professionals, and everyday people around the world to build strong, lean, injury-resistant bodies—without ever touching a weight.
I truly believe that calisthenics is a perfect expression of bodyweight mastery, combing real strength with mobility and functional movement patterns. Not only that, but it also has tremendous carry over into longevity, athletics, and sports if trained correctly.
I started coaching because I’m passionate about giving others the roadmap I wish I had when I started. Whether you’re brand new or stuck at a plateau, I’ll help you build real skills, not just look fit. If you want to move better, feel stronger, and finally unlock the power of your own body, you're in the right place.

Here is what some of my clients have to say:
“Gavin goes above and beyond to make sure his clients have all the tools they need to reach their goals. As my calisthenics trainer, he came prepared to every session with a tailored workout that was fun and challenging. I’m proud to say that with his guidance over the course of a month, I can successfully handstand and L-sit.”
— Ilan
“I kid you not the best workout program I’ve been on. All the exercises complement each other I see progress at an exponential rate and it gives me structure and allows me to look forward to every exercise and the next day.”
— Jay
“Gavin’s easy-going and charismatic personality make the workouts enjoyable and help safely push past my limits. He really instills the confidence to do the exercises I feel I cannot do. His patience and dedication to the work he obviously loves definitely assures me I’m taking instruction from the right person!”
— Elizabeth
“Gavin is an awesome trainer! He’s already helped me level up my swing skills on the bar after just two sessions. I’m only a few steps away from landing my swing 360 and unlocking more flow skills thanks to his clear tips and guidance. Highly recommend him if you’re serious about improving your dynamic calisthenics!”
— Juna
“Gavin is a top-tier trainer. He is a master at pinpointing the tiniest errors to fix in my body movements during our exercises and giving advice that help me massively improve. Gavin is very detail-oriented with his coaching and his personal training sessions are absolutely worth every penny to me. I have learned to do Calisthenics movements that I never thought I would be able to accomplish: muscle-up's, front/back levers, different types of press-up's, and soon... the planche. Gavin truly understanding the new levels I can reach each week and pushing me to achieve them is totally why I signed up with him. He also coaches me on other areas of my life that would help me improve in Calisthenics: diet, sleep, body-awareness/soreness/pain and how I can take care of my body. Without Gavin's help I definitely would not have reached the level that I am at right now in such short amount of time.”
— David
“If you're looking for a personal trainer in calisthenics, look no further! Gavin is THE GUY! I've been working with Gavin in person since May 2025 so its been 4 months and I went from no calisthenic experience, 0 pullups, messed up back and knee pain to being able to do 5 pulls up on my own and a 4 second handstand hold! And I have little to no pain now. Gavin really makes sure I understand the moves and know which muscles I should be engaging to help me progress at a rate my body (with past injuries) can tolerate - but also giving me the right amount of push I need that even surprises me!
Super friendly, easy going, and very flexible (literally and figuratively!) He is both motivational and inspirational! I alwayd look forward to our sessions together.”
— Amy
“Gavin is a great remote personal trainer - he provided me plans for each phase of training to reach my goals! He is consistent, dedicated and understanding- checkin in with me weekly, open for phone calls, and adjusting exercises even when I traveled! Now I feel equipped to continue training and growing my body’s capabilities using the strategies I gained from his program.”
— Mia
“Gavin is a great coach and really helps bring the hype! He’s helped me ascend in my calisthenics journey and also recover from some training injuries. I appreciate you 10/10 would recommend!!”
— Aramis
“Gavin is amazing! I signed up for his six month coaching program and I learned so much from him, I learned things that will stick with me for life. His program taught me things I did not know about my body and what my body was capable of.
He not only pushes you but also provides encouragement and guidance. He was also very timely with the text responses and email. I live on the east coast but we still managed to communicate effectively.
If you really want to level up your health and fitness Gavin is the guy to work with.
