We had the good fortune of connecting with Gaby Fioravanti and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Gaby, what’s the most important lesson your business/career has taught you?
Patience.. Learning to be patient so I can allow things to progress properly for real growth.

What should our readers know about your business?
I own a Fitness Studio in North Miami called BOX N’ MVE.. Here we do everything from 1-on-1 personal training to small group classes and small group private training. I really wanted to open a space where individuals could come connect develop a friendship and feel like it is their home away from home. My small group classes are no more than 8 people so that I can give the proper attention and focus on every individuals form and technique. They are not just a number in a big dark room or getting lost on a treadmill in a big gym. I know everyone coming thru the doors and what their goals are. If they have an injury or concern I can properly adjust their movement so they are completing the workout and feeling great at the end. I decide to open the space in 2020 when the pandemic was still effecting every part of this world, but I believe in this with my whole heart and being so I took a leap of faith and with the support of some key individuals I was able to open up my dream in Dec 0f 2020. It definitely has not been easy.. Im like a 1 woman show wearing multiple hats.. I have learned a ton! Im still learning, mainly on how to be patient.. I’ve learned that without a huge support system that the stress and anxiety of running a business can really get to you. We haven’t hit gold yet but to me providing a safe, loving space where people can come connect, workout and feel so strong afterwards shows myself that this is my true purpose.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Wow, this is a tough question.. Miami is such a vibrant city! There are so many amazing things to check out. definitely have to take them to the beach, love it by south point the water is so calming there. The Standard is always fun for a outdoor dinner or just to relax at the pool and spa. Wynwood is a must, so many great restaurants and jus walking around is a whole day in itself. If the HEAT or DOLPHINS are playing that would definitely be fun time! Overall, Miami has so much to offer anything will be great!

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
My partner, and a few key people in our local community that are still so supportive til this day.
