Dina is a lifelong sports enthusiast; and the proud owner of Fitness Together Lynnfield. Prior to her 20-year career as a personal trainer, Dina struggled with weight. Like many of her FT clients, her weight led to chronic back pain and kept her from doing the things she loved. After earning her Bachelor of Science in Sports Medicine from Sacred Heart University, she set out to overcome her own health challenges. She developed a personal fitness plan—rooted in kinesiology—that helped her lose 60lbs and reduce strain on her back. Today, Dina leverages her personal experience and education to help clients push past their own obstacles. Together with her team at FT Lynnfield, Dina has helped more than 1,000 clients lose weight, regain their strength, and improve their health.

Gina has always had a passion for exploring what the body can do. Starting dance classes at a young age she became a competitive dancer by the age of 12, and continued until she was 18. From there she took her training and attended Dean college where she fell in love with learning how to express herself through movement and wanting to be able to share that gift with others. After receiving her bachelors of the arts she started her career as a dance teacher at NRG dance center and Phunk Phenomenon. When working with her students she loved to see the joy on their faces when she helped them strive to be the best dancer they could be for their body. From there she took on an interest in fitness where she found the best exercises to enhance her dancing technique. Her fitness career took off when she realized how important these exercise techniques can help improve overall function of not just the body, and health but the mind. Gina is very passionate about giving back to her clients and helping them meet their goals in a positive way.
