Our Story

Who are we?

The Genesis Training

-started in 2020 during a difficult time to provide people an option to maintain and improve their fitness levels regardless of the circumstances. As the world changes, it is becoming more difficult for people to have access to the equipment to train. We are a fitness and human optimization company that empowers individuals with the tools and resources necessary to meet their physical and mental goals. Whether you struggle with your health and fitness inside or outside of the gym, we have you covered.

Founded by athletic trainer Austin Moy, Genesis Training was an outlet for people to stay active, learn about their bodies, and improve their fitness when gyms were closed. During its short existence, genesis training has seen tremendous growth and support from the Jersey City and Hoboken communities. As we continue to grow, our primary goals are to continue to nurture personalized relationships with our clients to help them crush their goals.

Genesis Training has planted their roots in the heart of Jersey City back in April 2021. Since then, Genesis Training Fitness Specialists have been servicing the Hudson county area by traveling directly to our clients and training in apartment gyms or training in one of our affiliate facilities. We have also expanded our horizons to live virtual training and online programming so that anyone can benefit from our unique and personalized training approach.

THE OWNER

Austin Moy

IASTM/Cupping Certified, RPR level 1, Wim Hof Method Coach.

Hi, my name is Austin and I am the owner and head fitness specialist at Genesis Training. I've spent years educating myself, researching, working with fitness and health care professionals, and (I'm not kidding you) hundreds of trial and error tests to design an effective transformation program. And through the years I found that the key to producing results is accountability, consistency, and an individualistic approach to training.

I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Athletic Training from Sacred Heart University in 2019, and since, have become a certified strength and conditioning specialist, certified nutrition coach, certified/licensed athletic trainer, cupping therapist, level 1 RPR/IASTM/Manual therapy certified. In my years working in the fitness industry, I found a lack of continuity and standards. I am motivated and dedicated to building a reputable company that can serve as a gold standard in fitness as well as provide unique solutions to the challenges, both physically and mentally, that people face on a day-to-day basis.

JESEBELLE LAVANDIER

PT

Fitness has been an element in my life since I was 6 years old. It began with mixed martial arts from learning the ins and outs of discipline to playing basketball at AAU and high school varsity level.s I was fortunate enought ot have been trained by legendary fitness professionals, coaches, instructors, and exercise scientist. Throughout this journey, I became interested in th ideology of fitness and wanted to become a part of it. I am very grateful for the guidance I received throughout my life. It motivated me to be a leader. Passing on information I was given through my mentors along with research helping me create my own style. I grew as an individual, accomplished goals, and progressed with my physical and mental abilities. I am now a certified personal trainer and a firm believer that life is great, and it can only get better. I want to help others remember when they don't feel so great! I personally believe my purpose is to help others therefore I will take on the responsibility to do so with love and patience. Motivational quote: The greatest gift is to give people your enlightenment, to share it. It has to be the greatest. - Buddha
