Dave Parise is a recognized leader in the fitness industry on the East Coast. On the cutting edge of exercise today, he has been voted one of the Top Trainers in the United States and across Canada by the Association for Fitness Professionals, IDEA. Dave has 18 years of experience in Human Performance and Exercise Science. Born and raised in Hamden, CT, he began his career as a body builder and personal trainer.

Dave retired from competitive body building to establish a private one-on-one personal training facility in 1986. Discouraged with common gym science and compulsory movements, he set out to change the fitness industry by setting new standards and proper training methods based on the function of one's individual anatomy, not a manufactured machine.

Dave is seeking to move to Southern California to work exclusively with a client/family/corporation who will employ him as a full - time trainer and chef.
