MIGUEL AGUILAR

President & CEO

Hey everyone, my name is Miguel Angel Aguilar and I am excited to introduce myself to you. I am a husband to my beautiful wife Priscilla and a father to two amazing daughters, Jadyn and Rylee Aguilar. Growing up, my childhood was not easy. I grew up in an abusive household where I experienced physical and mental abuse from my mother and father. At the age of 12, I was abandoned by my mother, and in search of a family, I joined a neighborhood gang. At the age of 16, my father was incarcerated with a 22-year sentence, which forced me to become homeless. However, God had a plan for me, and I found wrestling. Wrestling gave me the opportunity to learn skills that one can only know by competing against all odds. It made me into the man that I am today. I barely graduated high school and joined the workforce, where I eventually met my mentor.
My mentor told me to get my real estate license, and I didn’t procrastinate. I became a young entrepreneur, hustling and taking no excuses, and only succeeding. Fast forward to today, I am the owner of a national company called Self Made Training Facility. What started in 2014 in a garage has now grown to nationwide recognition.I have faced many challenges and obstacles along the way, including addiction, but I have never given up. I am proud of what I have accomplished so far, but I know that I am just getting started. Stay tuned, because there is so much more to come!

KAYLA KASSIS

Social Media & Content Manager

Elite Certified Online Personal Trainer - Hey guys! I'm Kayla Kassis, an ELITE Online Personal Trainer based at the Self Made Training Facility HQ in Temecula, California, servicing online clientele all across the United States. My unwavering passion revolves around empowering individuals on their journey for peak health and fitness. I do this by seamlessly integrating effective physical training with mindful, flexible dietary choices to encourage a healthy nutritional lifestyle that includes the things you love to eat. I am here to help you build a lifestyle, not a temporary diet with temporary results. I firmly believe that harmonizing these two vital components is the key to sustainable and transformative results in your fitness journey!At just 21 years old, I bring over 7 years of dedicated weight training experience and more than two years as an Elite Personal Trainer to the table. My own odyssey in the fitness industry emerged from grappling with disordered eating and a struggle to cultivate self-love. If you're reading this, you might relate to this journey of self-improvement.In May 2018, I consciously adopted a vegetarian lifestyle, eventually transitioning to full veganism by January 2022. Recently, I've enriched my diet with lean fish options, offering tailored guidance to individuals with diverse dietary preferences, whether you lean towards omnivorous or herbivorous choices.Throughout my personal fitness transformation, I shed approximately 30 pounds initially. However, my focus evolved beyond just shedding body weight. I now prioritize a comprehensive approach that includes optimizing muscle mass, managing body fat percentage, and most importantly builds SELF-LOVE. What started as a means to enhance my physical and mental well-being blossomed into an unwavering passion to help others on their own journeys.My journey ultimately led me to become a certified trainer. My motivation was twofold: to share my deep love for fitness and to motivate like-minded individuals, particularly during those challenging days when motivation lacks. I recognize that everyone encounters obstacles, but I'm here to guide you beyond those mental limitations.
Together, we can march on a path towards a healthier, happier you, and achieve the lasting results you desire in your health and fitness journey.
