Howdy, I’m Jon Marquez.
I’m a first-generation American with Latino parents who grew up in Florida. I identify as gay and have always been passionate about health and wellness.
It wasn't until high school that I became active, fell in love with weightlifting, and started practicing yoga. In 2013, I moved to New York to work at a startup, which I succeeded, but I still felt unfulfilled. Through my health and wellness journey, I discovered my true calling was to help others find balance and harmony with their nutrition, body, and mind. So, I left the startup world and became a personal trainer.
As a trainer, I believe in a holistic approach to fitness, focusing on physical strength and mental and emotional well-being. I aim to empower my clients to reach their goals and become the best versions of themselves. Having faced challenges and obstacles on my wellness journey, I understand how difficult it can be to make positive changes in your life. I’m here to support and encourage my clients every step of the way.
If you want to lose weight, build muscle, or improve your overall health and well-being, let’s work together to achieve your goals and create a happier, healthier you!

My approach to training
My philosophy is rooted in the belief that everyone is unique and deserves personalized attention and care. I prioritize getting to know my clients and learning about their health and wellness journeys, experiences, and goals. I can create a program tailored to their specific needs by taking a holistic approach.
But, my philosophy extends beyond physical training. I believe in the connection between the mind and body and prioritize mental and emotional well-being in my programs. My approach is positive, uplifting, and supportive, aiming to empower my clients and help them transform their well-being.
Ultimately, my goal is to help my clients become the best version of themselves, whether their goals are centered around weight loss, strength gain, or improving their mental health. Together, we will create a personalized program that enables them to achieve their health and wellness aspirations.
