Meet Dae!

Dae is a certified personal trainer, massage therapist, and corrective exercise specialist based in Santa Monica, California. With a Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology focused on Exercise Science, he combines hands-on experience with a deep understanding of how the body works to help clients move, recover, and perform at their best.

As a first-gen college grad from the San Fernando Valley, Dae’s path into wellness wasn’t the traditional one. He started out with his NASM certification, aiming for physical therapy school, but the cost and roadblocks made that route feel out of reach. That’s when he found massage therapy, and it all clicked. Through that experience, he discovered a real passion for how the body moves and heals. Becoming a licensed massage therapist led him to specialize in corrective exercise, giving him the tools to bridge training, recovery, and long-term health.

​​Now, his approach focuses on mobility, functional strength, and injury prevention. Every plan is built around the client, their lifestyle, their goals, and what their body really needs. He’s continuing to grow through mentorship in both training and recovery, and plans to dive deeper into nutrition so he can support clients on an even more holistic level.
