Jeffrey started his fitness journey shortly after having his son Elijah, back in 2010. He was fat, out of shape, two pack a day Black and Mild smoker who wanted to be healthier for his new role as a dad. He started out taking classes in the Inlet Group Fitness room with little success. Slowly gaining confidence, building strength, and dropping weight, he was asked to become a Group Fitness Instructor. Jeffrey began teaching Spin and was known for his EDM/Hip Hop remixes. He quickly gained a loyal following due to his unique ride style, sick beats, and GLOW SPIN. The owners asked Jeffrey to begin instructing a new format called HIIT in the fitness studio. With his first-class comprising of one person, Jeff built his Friday HIIT class into a packed house. With infectious music, ever-changing format, and supreme motivation, Jeff rose within the ranks of instructors at Inlet Fitness. He then began teaching Cross Training, Bulgarian Bag, TRX, and Kettlebell classes. After years of laying a foundation, Jeffrey was asked to become a TribeCOACH with Tribe Team Training®. Finding great success with the TRIBE Program, Jeffrey was named North America Coach of the Year for 2019. Jeffrey now runs the largest TRIBE in the entire Tribe Team Training® Program with Four Full TRIBES. Alongside being a certified TribeCOACH, Jeffery is certified in ACE, ASFA, Suples Bulgarian Bag Level 2, and Primal Swoledier Kettlebell Level 2.
