Founder

AMS is the culmination of a lifetime of movement. Michael grew up as an athlete, reaching the Division I collegiate level in swimming. After his athletic career ended, he began exploring new ways to move on dry land and fell in love with the empowering energy he felt in group fitness settings.

After graduation he moved to NYC where he taught and trained at some of the top brands in boutique fitness over a span of six years. During this time, he trained everyone from teenagers to older adults, elite athletes to first timers, working moms to Academy Award winning actors. 

He took a hiatus from teaching to further his education in his field and earned a master’s degree in nutrition and exercise physiology from Columbia University. He is an “all foods fit” registered dietitian and works primarily with individuals with eating disorders and collegiate athletes.

Michael takes an evidence-based approach to food and exercise and believes strongly in using movement to celebrate and invigorate the body you have, rather than punishing it to fit the body you are told to want. He is excited to share his experience and expertise with the Telluride community!
