Meet Your Personal Training Team
Coach Arya
​Hi, I’m Arya Assadkhan — a personal trainer with a genuine passion for helping people improve their fitness, lose weight, and get their nutrition on track.
I’m ISSA-certified and earned my REP’s Level 2 in Gym Instruction back in 2007 in London. I also studied Sports and Exercise Science at Hammersmith College, where my journey in fitness really began. Originally, I was focused on football, but after an ankle injury changed my path, I found a new purpose in helping others achieve their health and fitness goals.
I truly enjoy being around people and supporting them as they make progress — no matter how big or small. There’s nothing more rewarding to me than watching someone overcome challenges and grow stronger, both physically and mentally. My goal is to guide, motivate, and empower everyone I work with to become the best version of themselves.
Coach Aaron
​I’m a 25-year-old graduate student pursuing a master’s degree in kinesiology. My passion for fitness began at the start of college, during a time when I was severely underweight and often body shamed. Weighing just 100 pounds, I made the decision to take control of my health and transform my body. Through years of dedication, I gained strength and confidence, eventually reaching 165 pounds. That personal journey sparked a deeper commitment to helping others. Today, I find true joy in improving the lives of people of all ages through movement, wellness, and education.

Coach Tommy
From the age of 12 to 20 I was fighting addiction on the streets of Baltimore city. When I turned 19, I moved to Virginia with my mother and step father. In my efforts of trying to stay out of trouble I found that idle time was a problem for me. At the end of the workday, I didn’t have anything to do and didn’t know anyone in the area so out of boredom I began lifting some old weights I found in the garage. Something funny happened when I finished working out…I felt great! Don’t get me wrong, exercise was very difficult at the beginning especially after 9 years of destroying my body. But I refused to give up. Quickly, working out became a part of my life. Wanting to take my fitness to the next level, I went in search of a gym. The day I stepped foot into a gym, and I felt at home. I felt like I belonged there. Something moved me to just go up and ask one of the trainers how I can become one of them. He told me I needed to get certified and told me where to go. I attended some classes, took their test, and passed. A few of the senior trainers took me under their wing, encouraging me to pick up more certifications and better myself…so I did. 16 years ago, I Slowly started building a reputation. I felt I could relate to my client’s struggles and told them if I could change my life so can they.
