Giovanna Chalfin is an aspiring physical therapist currently pursuing a degree in Exercise Science at Montclair State University. With a strong foundation in strength training since high school, she earned her NASM Personal Trainer Certification in February 2024 and is passionate about helping individuals of all ages achieve their fitness goals.

Growing up in Livingston, NJ, Giovanna has been involved in sports her entire life. She started with soccer, later became the kicker for her high school football team, and eventually transitioned into MMA and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Through these experiences, she developed a deep appreciation for discipline, perseverance, and mental toughness—values that now shape her approach to training and coaching.

She firmly believes in the philosophy that "if you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life." Her goal is to empower clients by providing them with the tools and motivation they need to build strength, resilience, and confidence—both inside and outside the gym.

Outside of training, Giovanna enjoys spending time with family and friends, working out, being outdoors, listening to music, and practicing MMA and Jiu-Jitsu. She approaches every challenge with 110% effort, living by the mantra: “If you don’t like something, change it. If you can’t change it, change the way you think about it.”
