About Bergamo's Personal Training

Ralph Bergamo, Owner


Ralph Bergamo is married with 3 daughters, and 3 grandchildren. A long-time Cheshire resident, Mr. Bergamo is a man with a personable, unassuming character whose entire career embodies world-class accomplishment. When people first speak with Mr. Bergamo, they realize his athleticism, his friendly easiness with, and care for others, and his innate gift for motivation. Until they learn of his background, they cannot recognize that they are in the presence of an individual who can and has done things in the martial arts that very few people have ever done.

Mr. Bergamo is a 9th Degree Grand Master in Kar-Do-Jitsu-Ryu Karate, and a leading authority and 7th degree Master in the Filipino Kun Tao System (Realistic Self Defense), and many other ranks and memberships throughout the martial arts community. He is the founding member and chairman of the American-Filipino Kun Tao Federation, and a co-founder of the United States Breaking Association. In addition to numerous other memberships, associations and ranks in the martial arts, for close to 20 years, Mr. Bergamo has been a Certified Personal Trainer & Strength/Conditioning Coach (AFFA, NSCA).

"Since 1970, my career focus has been to develop and train my body. My life has been devoted to working and sharing with others the knowledge I have about physical fitness. As I developed ability in the art of breaking, I have come to realize the importance of including the way we think - our focus and our motivation - in the classes I teach and the fitness programs I develop. When I demolish a stack of concrete blocks, I show others what a trained body AND a strong mind can accomplish. That's what I want for my students. When we believe, we achieve! My greatest pleasure come from the steady success I see in my students at all levels."  ~ Ralph Bergamo
