Growing up in Gatlinburg, TN, Von began his journey in the fitness industry as a ski instructor. He is a U.S. Army National Guard veteran and brings over 13 years of individual and group personal training experience from a wide variety of sources.
Von has trained in the Dominican Republic and held leadership roles as the Fitness Director of Pivotal Fitness (Charleston, SC) and Operations Manager of Eco Fitness (Charleston, SC). He has also traveled as a fitness consultant, working with gyms to improve operations and programming.
A passionate endurance athlete, Von is an avid runner who has competed in numerous events including:
Giant Slalom & Slalom Skiing
Triathlons & Duathlons
10+regular marathons
10+ultra marathons
Running is his specialty, and he’s worked with many runners to keep them injury-free. An interesting fact: 85% of runners are injured annually, and 82% run on their heels. Von trains and coaches the Pose Running Method—the only scientific method proven to improve running performance. It all starts with a video gait analysis, followed by a program tailored to each runner’s specific needs.
He also has a strong background in:
High-intensity training
Targeted weight loss and toning programs
Serious muscle-building and strength routines
Though Von is no longer actively training clients full time, he’s still available for consultation, coaching, and guidance—especially if you’re preparing for a Half Marathon, Marathon, or Triathlon and want expert help with performance and injury prevention.
