Our Story
Hi, I'm James, the founder of Devalon Fitness.
You might be wondering: how did a firefighter become a personal trainer and open a fitness facility?
The journey started during my 12 years as a firefighter. I spent my days in high-pressure situations, always having to be in top physical shape to serve my community. I quickly realized that fitness wasn't just about strength and endurance—it was about mental toughness, discipline, and being the best version of yourself.
As I transitioned into personal training, I wanted to carry that same mindset into helping others. It became clear to me that fitness is a powerful tool for self-improvement—body and mind. That’s when the "I Am Powerful" statement came to life. It’s more than just words; it’s a reminder that each of us has the potential to transform, to push past limitations, and to unlock the best version of ourselves.
At Devalon Fitness, we’re driven by the belief that everyone has the ability to overcome challenges and rise to their full potential. My mission is simple: to provide a space where people can work on their physical, mental, and emotional health, and empower them to realize just how strong and capable they truly are. Whether you're working towards a specific fitness goal, building confidence, or just getting started on your journey, Devalon Fitness is here to help you become your best self.
We’re just getting started, and we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
