Diana Del Garbino opened Muscles in Motion in June 2007 with busy people in mind. She understood there are lots of ways to workout, and lots of ways to get results, but she wanted a place where everyone could get a great workout, and have incredible results, but not have to compromise their joints, spine, knees etc. Muscles in Motion applies exercise methods, that are based in science & bio-mechanics. Diana knows that her team will have you feeling wonderfully strong in a short amount of time.

Diana says “When you meet our staff you’ll see service minded people who put the clients first. We are proud of our team members from the Front Desk Associates, to our Personal Trainers. Come in for a workout and you’ll see it too.”
