Q&A

What is your best moment in the fitness industry?

When we introduced Batuka to the world, I was working in Operación Triunfo TV program as the singers’ trainer ( American Idol Spanish version) . Batuka is a fitness program I created with my brother , unfortunately it doesn’t exist anymore due to contract issues but life , perseverance,humility, patience and the love for what I do give me more opportunities to continue growing in our fitness world. 

If you could train with anyone from the past or living, who would you choose?

To be in a class with the one and only Marcus Irwin, the most charismatic and humble presenter, he is the best . He gave me the best advice when I started: Be Yourself. 

I would go back to the first fitness convention when I was 15 years old....there I also met Carmen Díaz, Daniel González, Junior Carvalho... big references and important people in my life
