Westlake Village, CA

Personal trainer in Westlake Village

Westlake Village is a short drive from Oak Park, and James trains clients at home here the same way he does everywhere else: one to one, for an hour, against a plan written for the person in front of him.

A lot of people in Westlake have tried the gym membership and the group class already. What usually changes things is accountability, someone who turns up, knows where you were last week and adjusts the session to how you are today. Reviews from his clients say the same thing in different words: motivating without being overwhelming, patient, and serious about technique.

Weight loss, muscle building and boxing are all coached here, often in the same week. Call or message to find a time.

What Insight Fitness offers in Westlake Village

  • Weight Loss Training built around losing fat and keeping it off, rather than around a single hard month. Sessions are one to one and the plan moves with you.
  • Muscle Building Strength and size work programmed session by session. Technique first, load second, so the lifts stay available to you for years rather than weeks.
  • One-on-One Boxing Pad work, footwork and conditioning, taught properly from the first session. No sparring required and no experience assumed.
  • Striking Coach For anyone who already trains and wants their striking coached rather than supervised. Rounds on the pads with real feedback between them.

What Clients Say

In their own words

★★★★★
I have been training with James for the last six months. Aside from being exceptionally experienced, he is kind, patient, knowledgeable, and has a great sense of humor. He has extensive background in training people of all different ages and physical capabilities. I have been on a journey to lose weight and get fit after undergoing chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation. James has been my guiding light to recuperating physical fitness once again. He is a wonderful teacher and an outstanding human being. I recommend him unconditionally and know that you will be glad that you chose him as your trainer.

James is a fantastic martial artist, an incredible trainer, and an even more amazing human being. His journey is truly inspirational. He has overcome tremendous challenges to get where he is today, and that strength, determination, and perseverance show in the way he trains and inspires others. I’ve had the privilege of having James as one of my martial arts students, and I’ve watched firsthand how hard he works and how much he genuinely cares about helping others improve. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, dedicated, and motivating personal trainer.
