Joel Febus
Originally from San Juan, Puerto Rico, Joel Febus was brought up with a cyclist father who was responsible for sparking his initial passion for athletics and being outdoors. He immersed himself in everything sports-related, playing tennis, mountain biking, and excelling in track and field. Joel decided to take a personal training position in 2004 at NYSC Astoria, to make extra cash while attending college. However his passion for fitness prevailed, and he turned it into a full-time career.
I trained clients in NYSC Astoria for 14 years, as well as Punch Fitness NY, a boxing gym in the Upper East side. I decided to join Crossfit Queens in 2018 with a talented team where I dived further with Crossfit training. Leading a healthy lifestyle is my passion and sharing this with others is my focus; There is nothing better than hearing how I have motivated and assisted my clients on their journey in unlocking their full mental and physical potential.

So excited for this gym to open up! Got to go to a class during their soft opening, Ian and Joel did a fantastic job making everyone feel welcomed and walking us through the workout! They made sure everyone was able to get in a good workout and not be intimidated with any of the movements.
