MEET THE TRAINER
@trainedbylionel / @lioneltaito
Talofa team! my name is Lionel and im one of the coaches here at WBG.
Iv been involved in and around boxing, training and fight events for a decade. With over 7 years experience with group boxing fitness classes, and numerous fight camps at my previous gym and at WBG. I have been on both sides of the ring with WBG, as a coach opposing and representing WBG.
Im passionate about health and wellbeing, boxing, sports and building a safe and fun community with-in the gym and you'll probably hear me before you see me. Lol I hope energy I bring to classes help push people to unlock potential they didn't know they had - even if its an extra 5 reps when you thought you were done.
I have been at WBG since Feb 2023 when I came over on the '30 for Feb' promo and I haven't left since! Initially coming to WBG to train and focus more on myself - it didn't last long until I was behind the mic - and then not long until I was in the corner supporting our fighters - the first fighter at WBG being my fiancee Arna (whom funnily enough we met whilst sparring eachother). lol
One of my boxing career highlights is being able to be involved in prepping Asher for both his return fight and also championship fights, and being able to rub shoulders with Master sensei Henry Schuster.
You'll catch me running Fighters Classes and Padfit at LH, and filling in the odd Boxfit classes here and there. Most of the time il probably be next too you smashing the bag. See yall in the gym team! 🫡

Can confirm! 😂 During my first fight, all I could hear was Lionel’s voice. 🤣 Always looking after the fighters while bringing out the best in us. Really appreciate everything Lionel does for the team. I’m sure the rest of the fighters feel the same too. 🙌
