hi! I'm Gina
In 2021, I came to Florence on a solo trip, and as a fitness instructor myself, in NYC at the time, I couldn't wait to see what the fitness scene was like in Italy !! When I arrived, I tried out all the gym options, and realized that fitness is really under-developed here, and there are proper gyms with memberships and all the things, but I just wanted a good old workout class.
I fell in love with Florence and what was supposed to be a 1-week trip I had pushed to 2 weeks... then 1 month.. and then 3 months, which was the maximum I could stay without a Visa. Still no luck finding a gym here that spoke to me, but even so, after 3 months off spending time and working remote in Florence, knew I wanted to move here. This left me with a very clear calling and mission (and no choice if I wanted a workout class lol), to get certified in Italy, and redefine fitness in Florence. And that's just what I did! While there was no customer base at the time, I knew I couldn't be the only one who feels that sense of "home" within myself when I am surrounded by a friendly fitness community that gives me the space to feel strong and shake out any stresses that day or that week. I trusted that feeling. That feeling and that trust has brought me to hundreds of girls who've needed this space, too.
