Martina, an Italian-American who grew up in South Africa, played soccer from ages 4-18 and won the national championship with her provincial team. Martina moved to California to be closer to her family in the hopes of continuing her soccer career. Her soccer career was cut short after sustaining multiple injuries over the years.

Trying to better understand her own body, Martina went down a path of discovery and curiosity for the human body and how to optimize its function for longevity and performance. She fell in love with fitness, starting out as a personal trainer at 24 Hour Fitness in 2017 and then opening her own practice in 2019. Helping people realize their true potential and achieving things they no longer thought were possible is what she deems as the highest level of fulfillment.

Martina’s training focuses on proper movement patterns, posture, and body mechanics while working on building strength. She uses various systems such as FRC and PRI to help her clients train safely and effectively while working around any old or new injuries.
