Benn Madison

Benn Madison was born and raised in London, England before moving to New York for university. Studying Art History as a way to have the most expansive academic experience possible, Benn realized that their interests were as diverse as their imagination, and went on to have a successful and varied career in multiple industries. Benn spent the last couple of decades as an expert and consultant in the Specialty Coffee Industry traveling all over the world, before a TBI sustained in 2023 changed their life. For the better.

An avid fan of all kinds of movement almost from birth, they were an athlete at school, a Pilates student from freshman year, yoga practitioner and instructor for many years, as well as regular gym goer for most of their life. But as happens with life - age, a sedentary lifestyle, and a lot of travel meant that they slowed down and filled out - to almost 310 lbs.

In 2023, just before their accident, on a hike through the redwoods that they barely started and couldnโ€™t complete, they began to recognize that unless their life changed, they would stop being able to do the things they loved with the people they loved. That realization, and their determination to heal after the TBI led them on a journey on which you find them today.

It was at Truve that they started their 160 lb weight loss journey, found a sense of calm and peace, regained their love for themselves, their life, their joy of movement, their sense of freedom, and the energy they had forgotten they ever had. It was through relearning to love exploring exactly what their body could do, that allowed them to change their whole life.

A Balance Body certified instructor as well as a NASM certified personal trainer, Benn teaches Pilates reformer and sees personal training clients at Truve and loves to work with people of all types and fitness levels, ages, and abilities. Any mental, emotional, or physical struggles you may have, they see you, honor you, and want to be your biggest supporter, careful guide, and friendly face that helps bring you back to you. Every day.

The inspiration, joy, and sense of self that they found since recommitting to their fitness journey over the last couple of years, as well as the camaraderie, support, and fun they have found being a member of the Truve family - first as a client and now as a trainer - is something they want to pass onto all of their clients. Life is to be loved and lived, Bennโ€™s vocation is to help people do just that.
