About Wings SOM
I have been in the fitness business for over 45 years owning and/or managing over 50 clubs. My first club in 1981 at the World Trade Center, NYC was cited as the best "corporate fitness center in the country." This club was lost in the 9/11 attack.
I opened Wings Adult Fitness in 2005 and started the School of Movement in 2020 patterned after my own needs to keep moving.
