Dave Kavanaugh
Personal Coach
Bio
I have spent hundreds of hours helping clients reach their destinations. With over 20 years of experience as a personal fitness trainer and software sales manager I helped countless people to exceed their personal and professional goals to peak experience.
A degree from the College of San Mateo led to a University of California at Berkeley certification in Health and Exercise; Fitness and Intervention. Certifications from the American College of Sports Medicine (A.C.S.M.); Health and Fitness Instructor and USA Cycling; Expert Coach was the launch of my personal training practice, Total Fitness Training. Later certifications from the American Council of Exercise, Health and Wellness Coach; Institute for Integrative Intelligence, Coaching Foundations; and New Ventures West, Coaching to Excellence provided the springboard into Groove Solutions. A Mental Well-Being Certification for Professionals from the Mental Wellbeing Association rounds out a whole-person approach to coaching that spans physical performance, professional achievement, and mental well-being.

"After completing my first major goal with Dave, I was ecstatic. From our first conversation to the completion of my first single It was about an eight month process. Along the way, Dave was in constant communication and offered amazing feedback but most importantly he held me to what I said I was going to do."
