Heroes Alicia & Andrew

Alicia Jamison
As both Coach Alicia and Professor Jamison, this little lady is a fireball of energy. She specializes in motivating others through exercise and education. She received her BS in Nutrition and Dietetics and an MA in Exercise Physiology. Alicia teaches The Physiology of Exercise to Senior level undergraduate students. Above all, Alicia takes great pride in her ability to emotionally stimulate her students, clients, and colleagues and help everyone realize their own greatness. If you don’t find Coach Alicia in the gym or classroom, you'll likely find her on a dance floor throwing it back up, perhaps upside down.

Andrew Dorian
Born and raised out of a lesser known inner city neighborhood in Miami, Florida, Andrew Gonzalez transformed his lifestyle early on as a youth by getting involved with as many sports as he could; eventually setting a life goal to help as many people as he can whom also share the same eagerness for change. Andrew’s coaching style has often been regarded as a creative blend of evidence based exercise selection, with the grit of a gym veteran. Andrew has played a number of sports ranging from wrestling (Folkstyle and Greco), American football, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai Kickboxing, all the way to classical ballet and modern dance. Andrew graduated from NYU and worked as a trainer and group fitness instructor at the former David Barton Gym while he was in school. Since then, Andrew has gone on to work at a few more luxury gym brands as a top tier personal trainer, before launching his own fitness company; The Bounceback.
