Our Coaching Philosophy
KinCO started in May 2013 as a partnership, equally owned and operated by Philippe Sabbagh and Alejandro Julian. Working together as personal trainers, coaches and trained kinesiologists, they forged the identity that serves as the foundation of their training team.
We believe that adopting a healthy diet and doing regular physical activity are key to taking control of your life. You can get back to feeling amazing, moving well and living the lifestyle you want, on your terms.
