About Me
Mark Dizon embarked on a fulfilling journey in 2014 as a fitness instructor, after spending six years in the hotel industry. As time went on, Mark pondered his long-term goals and realized that his passion for fitness and helping others could be pursued through becoming a fitness trainer. Mark enrolled in the Gurnick Academy of Medical Arts, and his internship at the Peninsula Jewish Community Center solidified his path. With his certification, Mark was hired and began his new career with enthusiasm.
While working as a trainer, Mark also took on the role of a kids' fitness instructor, where he instilled the values of teamwork and fundamental skills in young children. As the pandemic took hold, Mark adapted to the new reality and began offering virtual training sessions, allowing clients to work out from the comfort of their own homes.
In December 2020, Mark decided to explore a new career path and found his calling in massage therapy. He enrolled in the McKinnon Body Therapy Center and learned various modalities, including Swedish, Deep Tissue, and Sports Massage, which he incorporates into his practice. Mark is dedicated to continually learning and mastering other massage styles to offer the best service to his clients.
With years of experience in fitness training, coaching, and massage therapy, Mark felt confident in his abilities to run his own company. Thus, he opened MD WELLNESS, where he shares his expertise and helps people achieve their fitness and wellness goals. Mark's passion and dedication are evident in his work, and he looks forward to making a positive impact on his clients' lives.
