Personal trainer Fitness center Physical fitness program Wellness programAbout the Club
My Career as a personal trainer began in the fall of 2006 while working to obtain my Health and Fitness degree from Northern Michigan University.
In 2009 I moved to Portland and began holding 1-on-1 private personal training sessions while building my brand & business. This would lead me to travel all over the country and learn from some of the brightest people in the industry! TRX, StrongFirst (Kettlebells), DVRT, Animal Flow, to name a few-- each instructor & workshop having a profound impact on my training style and philosophy.
While opening Vive Fitness in 2014 would be my crowing achievement to date, I consider myself blessed to have a career I love and for the opportunity to serve Portland's fitness community.​​​

My wife and I have been training together with Evan at VIVE Fitness for the past 4 years and we have both realized excellent gains in our strength and flexibility. Here are a few things things I really like about Evan and VIVE.
1. He is a total pro and is always increasing his training and teaching skills through workshops taught by leaders in the field such as TRX, Ultimate Sandbags, Kettle Bells and Animal Flow. If you don't know what these things are, work out with Evan for a few weeks and YOU WILL.
2. He is ALWAYS on time and prepared.
3. The workouts are constantly evolving and he always provides 2 or 3 progressions or difficulty levels for an exercise so you can challenge yourself. He is also always monitoring your form and making sure that your perform the movement properly to avoid injury and maximize results. I think this is one of the most important benefits of working out with a personal trainer.
4. He is committed to operating a top-notch gym and wants to ensure his clients and all the clients that train at VIVE have a great workout environment with great equipment to use. The new space that opened in Spring of 2019 is fantastic.
If you are looking for a personal trainer, give Evan a call. We are glad we did!

I've been working out the past 10 years under Evan's direction and he is by far the best trainer I've ever been to see. I've referred several people to him, all who have had the same exceptional experience I have. His attention during a work out is above and beyond, and the way he corrects you to prevent injury and get the most out of your efforts is amazing. He is patient, inspiring, and extremely knowledgeable. I would HIGHLY recommend his services.

I went to Evan's boot camp a few years back when I was on vacation. It was fun and worked up quite a sweat in a short period of time :)

Evan is one of the best trainer I’ve had the experience of working with. His training encompasses many different aspects and methods. Because of his background in sports science and knowledge of the skeletal/muscular system, he brings aspects to the training that are often missed. As well, he is constantly training himself on new techniques to add to his repertoire, like animal flow, sandbags, TRX. Etc. Evan has a mature and dynamic approach to training, constantly evaluating your progress and goals, and evolving your regimen accordingly. I highly recommend him.
