Erik Hansson, ATC, ACE-CPT

Erik is a passionate personal trainer whose own fitness journey drives his desire to help others.

His interest in fitness began while attending San Francisco State, where he faced challenges with being overweight and out of shape. Initially intimidated by the gym, he found motivation through a supportive group of like-minded individuals, inspiring him to break bad habits and embrace a healthier lifestyle.

This transformation led Erik to pursue a degree in athletic training from Oregon State University, where he also studied sports medicine. It was during this time, he gained valuable experience working with a diverse range of clients, from Division One athletes to cancer survivors.

As part of the SamFit team, Erik helps others discover their passion for fitness and achieve their health and wellness goals, bringing compassion and understanding to each unique journey.
