Bio
Hiyo my name's Adrien, some call me monkey, some call me ninja, and all question my endless energy and radiant vibes.
Fitness has been important to me for as long as I can remember, in fact, my core principle is as long as one focuses on their mind, body, and spirit every day, one can always find harmony and evolution.
I always inspired people due to my energy and dedication, and in truth, I've never viewed myself as a teacher, but always as someone people go to for workouts and fitness-related questions and I am always pleased to give any advice and aid in any way I can.
I also hold a holistic therapy certification and a herbalist certification which I use to implement into my teas allowing me the ability to recommend different herbs that benefit the body from energy to sleep. There are even herbs great for increasing bone strength and muscle recovery, I strongly believe in the quote "Gaia provides everything you need"
Fun fact: I'm a lightning energy trapped in a human body. I love to cook, create art, and anything spiritual really. I'm also an aspiring shamanic life coach with fitness training as one of many key aspects. A strong healthy body makes people feel good, and that's a fact.
Pride can be a deadly sin if not controlled, but everyone who looks in the mirror and sees the fruits of their labor, should be prideful, and for good reason, they earned it!
I'll leave you with this, pride is a beautiful thing when earned through dedication and hard work!
What's your reason why?
This one is definitely my favorite question, there's always a "why?” no matter the story, journey, etc. There has to be. “Why?” is one of the biggest questions within the universe. I still can't answer why I respect and love humans as much as I do. Something about seeing people happy, smiling, motivated, driven, at their best, or even more, striving to obtain their highest being, inspires and motivates me to do what I can to aid the passion, the journey, and the “why?” everyone possesses to a state of accomplishment. I love to be a part of someone's journey truly in my hermit energy, to guide people through the forest that is life, and to the path that leads to the destination they desire. In my case at X3, it is physical goals I help people to reach. I've always wanted to help people achieve their fitness goals. I enjoy working out and being active, that's my burning Aries moon in full effect. It turns out that being simply who I am has had an impact on those around me, and seeing people at the gym, putting in the work, and putting in the discipline, really feeds my volcanic fire. Inspiring people, inspires people, everyone who puts in the work inspires and motivates me, and turns out that I hold the keys to do the same, so why not use it for the benefit of mankind?
What do your clients and students say about you?
A few recent comments that always make me smile are: “Your workout kicked my ass and I hate you for it, but I love you for pushing me and helping me achieve my goals" "You are evil, like purely evil, but in the best way possible." "Oh I know you, you’re the one with the crazy amount of energy, jumping all over the place. I love your energy." This is honestly my favorite because I really do love jumping and climbing. But the deepest one I've received has to be: "I love your energy, I love the fact that you are always smiling, and jumping around, with all the darkness and negativity in life, you’ve always been a reason for me to push on and smile." Oh last one because this one always makes me laugh. My friend and old coworker had just moved to Georgia in 2018 and she had two jobs she was interviewing for, Brick Store, where I worked, was her first stop, and her words were exactly: "Do you know why I chose to work at Brick Store? I was new to Georgia and knew nobody but, I walked into the kitchen, and there you were, kickboxing in the kitchen with the biggest smile on your face. I turned around and said, yep this is where I need to be, and accepted the job. It was one of the best decisions I ever made."
