Cole balazsi

fitness director / partner

My journey with mental health started a long time ago, before I was a Fitness Coach. I worked as a Correctional Officer, dealing with individuals who dealt with all types of mental health issues on a daily basis.

My love for helping people and fitness then coincided. I realized that your physical and mental health are key to self growth, self discovery and overall happiness in life.

I truly found out a lot about my own mental health with Bodybuilding after doing 8 bodybuilding shows, obtaining 2 natural bodybuilding pro cards, stepping on the World stage twice and getting Top 5 in the world in men’s physique, I knew I was capable of incredible things.

So I translated all of my hard work, discipline and dedication into showing others how to live a healthier life.
It is so crucial that each and everyone one of us make our physical and mental health a number one priority in life.

Sometimes people just don’t know how to do that.. so for the past 4 years I’ve been working along side people helping them learn and master their physical and mental health as their own Coach.

I take extreme pride and passion in what I do, and am grateful to be apart of Not Today. With the vision to make an impact on as many people as possible and helping them with their mental and physical health.
