Our Mission
​To train inspired individuals in a high-energy, results-driven environment.
We’re here to push limits, build confidence, and get 1% better every single day — physically and mentally.
Why us?
Because you’ll get more than a workout. You’ll get a coach who actually cares. A program built around you. Real accountability. Real community. Real progress. This isn’t one-size-fits-all — it’s built to fit your goals, your lifestyle, and your mindset.

Built Through Sport. Sharpened by Experience. Driven by Passion.
I’ve spent my entire life in motion — from competitive fields to coaching sidelines, and now, in the gym helping people take their power back.
​
Growing up, I played every sport I could get my hands on. That competitive fire led me to play soccer professionally in Croatia, Slovenia, and Brazil. After hanging up the cleats, I jumped into coaching D1 and D3 women’s soccer and later earned my Master’s in Exercise Science & Health Promotion, specializing in Nutrition and Wellness Coaching.
​
That’s when I found my real calling — helping people become the strongest, happiest, and most dialed-in version of themselves.
​
From Athlete to Coach — and Beyond
Since 2018, I’ve trained clients from all walks of life. Athletes, parents, desk-job grinders — anyone ready to stop going through the motions and start chasing progress. My training philosophy is simple:
​
👉 Bring the energy
👉 Show up with intent
👉 Get 1% better every damn day
​
I’m not here to just write workouts. I’m here to coach you through mindset shifts, hold you accountable, and make this journey something you actually enjoy. We focus on real progress — physically and mentally — because the gym is just the beginning.
​
This Is More Than Fitness. It’s a Lifestyle.
At Coach Cap’s Fitness & Wellness, we combine smart programming, sustainable nutrition, and real accountability inside a competitive, goal-driven culture. You’ll have support, you’ll have structure — and you’ll have a coach who actually gives a damn.
I believe in effort over excuses. I believe in your potential — even if you don’t yet.
Let’s put in the work. Let’s fly high. And let’s never look down.
