About Us.

         Edge Fitness Studio is a private gym, located in St. Clairsville, OH.  Owned and operated by husband and wife team Don and Nicole Cataldo, Edge Fitness Studio was designed to offer a more private and comfortable environment for its members.

​

          Don is acting Head Trainer and has over 20 years of experience.  While versed in most forms of training, he specializes in General physical preparedness (GPP).  GPP is a preparatory phase of training that is intended to provide balanced physical conditioning in endurance, strength, speed, flexibility and other basic factors of fitness. It can be considered all-around fitness.

​

           Don also has a history in combat arts training including; Kenpo karate, boxing, muay thai, and MMA grappling.

​

           Using his extensive knowledge in varying art forms and training modalities, Don has structured classes that are accessible and fun, while also providing stellar results.  He believes the best exercise is the exercise you will enjoy and do consistently.

           Nicole Cataldo is a Sergeant First Class in the United States Army where she serves as a full time Army Reserve Career Counselor.  She has always maintained her fitness levels to meet and exceed Army physical standards. 

 

          After the birth of her daughter, Lyla, Nicole began powerlifting. She had never lifted weights before, but quickly fell in love with the process. Then the results came, she began to lose fat, gain muscle, and simply felt stronger and healthier. Contrary to popular belief she didn't become bulky or manly; she became strong and lean. 

​

          Nicole lifts, trains with her hubby, does yoga, and a little running (mostly chasing a toddler).
