Vincent Metzo: A STT Exclusive




SMARTER Team Training show

Summary: Vincent Metzo is the Dean of Advanced Personal Training at the Swedish Institute and the Director of Education for Kettlebell Concepts in New York City. Vincent’s dance, theatre, and acrobatics background lead him to choose exercise science and education as a career. His passion for kettlebells and training grew out of his early training as a dancer and acrobat. During his time as an undergraduate at NYU Tisch School of the Arts studying acting Vincent’s interest in movement and acrobatics grew.  This led him to study acrobatics and tumbling and to work with a strength coach to improve his tumbling and acrobatics.  The results of a well-designed program led Vincent to decide to return to NYU to pursue a Master's Degree in Exercise Physiology and Fitness Management.  After a few years working in corporate fitness and receiving his Diploma and License as a Massage Therapist, he began teaching at the Swedish Institute where he developed and runs the Advanced Personal Training Program, the first personal training degree program in Manhattan. <br> <br> The SMARTER Team Training Audio Interview Series has been developed to share insights from some of the best in the industry.
