Hello, I’m Joseph Garcia, a fitness professional who specializes in strength training and weight loss.
I have been a fitness enthusiast for over 8 years, finding great joy and passion in helping people reach their fitness goals. After graduating college and pursuing a career in the fitness industry I decided to take my passion for fitness to the next level. Since then, I have dedicated my life to helping my clients achieve their goals using strength training and a combination of diet and lifestyle changes. With every client I work with, I strive to create an environment of support and understanding to make them feel comfortable meeting their fitness goals. I specialize in designing individualized workout sessions tailored to each person’s fitness needs and goals. Additionally, I provide education and guidance with custom diet and nutrition plans designed to help them reach the desired outcome. Through my professional expertise and experience, I strive to help my clients build an amazing body transformation — both physically and mentally. With a combination of knowledge, guidance and support, I am dedicated to helping my clients reach their goals in the most efficient way possible.

Leslie Chavira – Personal Trainer in Chino Hills
Hey there! My name is Leslie Karelly, you can call me either. I want to share with you how I began my fitness journey back in 2015. We all have that one memorable event that inspired us to make changes and be better whether that is physically or emotionally. So here is mine. My, “Aha!” moment was during a summer trip to Las Vegas. While walking around the city, my thighs chafed soooo much causing my skin to bleed. I felt so embarrassed and it was at that moment I knew I had to do something for myself. Like many others starting out in the fitness world; I felt intimidated by the gym equipment and felt lost when it came to creating an exercise routine for myself. As a result of this insecurity, I would strictly do online workouts at home or, if I managed to go to the gym, I would do group workouts where I could easily hide in the back so no one could see me.
With time, determination, and whatever courage I was able to muster throughout my journey, I slowly gained confidence and began to see results. My passion and dedication for fitness grew and that is what has brought me here to be your personal trainer. As an engineer and a mom of 1, I will be the first to tell you that starting a fitness journey is difficult but I hope that with my encouragement and advice you can achieve anything you put your mind to. Together we can customize workouts, meals, and other goals you may have in living a healthier lifestyle.
Whether it’s your first time ever stepping inside the gym, you need help understanding equipment, or you just need a gym friend for extra motivation, I’m your girl!

DESIREE BOURNE – Personal Trainer
My fitness journey started because I developed Auto Immune issues at an early adult age.
Weight gain and loss- losing 100lbs back and forth has been a lot on my body and mental health.
I know the struggle, and I know accountability, discipline and kindness is what’s needed to succeed.
Competing in my first Body Building Wellness Competition at age 34 and placing 1st- the peak of my fitness journey- made me want to help others.
I am also a certified Yoga and Meditation Instructor, with holistic spiritual practices. I like to help connect the Mind, Body and Spirit.

Tiffany Raulston – Personal Trainer
Marissa Almendarez – Personal Trainer
Working out was my happy place before I decided to start my career in the fitness industry. In 2011 I started personal training to help others make it theirs too. After working with so many different people at different phases in their lives, it really drove home the fact that healthy living has a lot of competition. Often the thing we can’t seem to find is balance.
I really wanted to move beyond just a workout and diet plan and use my personal experience to show how to live healthy and make sustainable changes to accomplish goals. Fitness is for life as long as you keep moving. I hope to keep doing so and help as many people as I can along the way.
In 2015, I cofounded an event, Climb for a Cure, that helped raise funds for stage iv metastatic breast cancer. This event later turned into a nonprofit, Make Good Moves. From 2015-2021 we were able to raise $100,000 and donate that towards research, awareness for stage iv MBC and provide assistance for patients and their families.
In 2019 I helped open up Self Made West Covina and in 2021 I took over partial ownership of Self Made Chino Hills in 2021.
Within those two locations I help run a team of close to 100 trainers. I mentor them to step out of the big box gyms and become successful entrepreneurs.
In 2022, I became a mom and attribute my healthy pregnancy and recovery to the lifestyle I have created since 2011. As an entrepreneur my titles have changed but my mission has not, helping others through health and fitness. I currently still work with a limited personal training clientele and co-host my own podcast and social events through, The Mixtape Talks Podcast.
