Antonio Somma Jr

Athletic Training Director

My path to a career in fitness was inspired by my passion for athletics. I always viewed fitness as a way to not only prepare for a particular sports season, but to improve performance. A common quote used in the sports world “Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard’, has always been a motto that I’ve lived my life by. If you’re willing to put in the time, hitting your goals will follow. I was Captain of both my Cranford High School Football and Lacrosse teams. In college I was a 3 year varsity walk-on at Kean University. I have been a certified personal trainer since 2013 and with NBD since 2014. There’s no better feeling than being a positive influence and changing someone’s life, and I get to do that every day.

Chastity Hampstead

Pilates Reformer Director

Chastity has been an athlete for majority of her life, a personal trainer for over 7 years and graduated from Rutgers University with a focus on Psychology. This combination allowed her to gain a great deal of knowledge and understanding of the human body and mind as a whole. Her foundation began with yoga starting at the age of four. She moved on to gymnastics, competitive cheerleading, dance, capoeira, track, and bodybuilding. According to Chastity, there are benefits to all types of training, but the best way to truly maximize your body is to make sure to balance it out by practicing different forms. Her training style ranges from power lifting to pilates barre, and everything in between; and believes that the strongest muscle in your body is only as strong as your mind. Her quote to live by: “whether you believe you can or you can’t, you're right.” Her favorite hobby is hand-standing everywhere and her preferred means of cardio is dancing.

Jennifer Beckerman

Pilates Reformer Instructor

I am passionate about teaching challenging, safe and healthy movements. I love helping clients reach their goals of improved strength, flexibility, health and overall wellness. I am a Balanced Body trained and certified Reformer, Apparatus and Mat Pilates Instructor and certified Personal Trainer.

I was born and raised in Massachusetts and have been involved with sports and the physical fitness industry all my life. I have always loved how being physically active and completing a demanding work out made me feel. I earned a Masters Degree in Education with a concentration in Counseling Psychology. In this earlier career, I assisted people through several social services positions and as a High School Guidance Counselor. During this time, I continued to pursue physical fitness as a passion for myself and began to assist those around me. I moved to NJ several years ago and decided to make a major career shift in order to pursue this life changing career full time."

Lucia Carannante

Nutritional Coach

"My name is Lucia Carannante. I have been an AFAA Certified Personal Trainer since 2005 and a Certified Nutrition Coach with Precision Nutrition since 2017. I am also ACE certified in training pregnant and postpartum clients. In 2008 I completed a certification in Functional Movement Screening and Corrective Exercise workshop. In the past I have worked with many different types of people with much success. I have combined my knowledge of fitness and nutrition to move forward in an ever changing industry. I am always learning and educating myself to be better. My passion for both of these health-conscious ways of life began at a young age and they’ve stayed prevalent with me throughout the years, even before I decided to pursue them as a profession. It’s led me in many directions in order to guide clients to combine fitness and nutrition in order to ensure a positive, disciplined and nourishing way of life. One’s diet and physical activity are dependent upon one another, and my desire to work with people to make that a reality is my utmost goal. I am detail oriented and very focused in what I do and injury prevention is at the top of the list when working with clients. My personal life is spent with my husband, Anthony and our 3 children who are now all grown and on their own. I also have a wonderful circle of friends who are supportive and loving. I just started playing pickleball as a new hobby. Let's see where that goes!! A fun fact about me is I am secretly competitive and love a challenge.
