Today we’d like to introduce you to Anthony Giallanzo

Hi Anthony, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?

With a degree in education and certification in personal training, I quickly realized my passion was in teaching fitness rather than in a classroom setting. It was 2006 and at the young age of 25 I formed my first S-Corp and began accommodating Long Islanders with mobile personal trainers, as well as multi-sport classes and parties for children. Fast forward to 2017 and the sport of ninja warrior and obstacle course training was exploding on television and gyms. By 2019 I refocused my business and opened my first ninja obstacle training facility now called No Limit Ninja, offering classes, competitions, training and parties. After a successful 7 months in business I was forced to close my doors due to COVID-19. Due to the pandemic, many people starting to invest in their homes and backyards and with that the calls started to come in asking if we could sell the same equipment that we have in our gym but in their backyard. So in the Spring of 2020, Ultimate Ninja Course Builders LLC. was born. We began with residential backyards and quickly expanded to summer camps and day camps. We were the first company to build outdoor ninja courses for summer camps and since then have worked with dozens of camps along the east cost, creating customized designs tailor to each customer’s and camps needs.
For 2024 we plan to expand across the United States to more camps and communities from the Mid West to the West Coast.
No Limit Ninja successfully rebounded from the pandemic and has since expanded from its original location on Long Island to a 10,000 sq. ft. space in Yonkers with our eyes set on expanding again in 2025!

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?

Being a business owner or entrepreneur is much like riding a roller coaster, with its thrilling ups and daunting downs. However, it can be even more accurately compared to being a Ninja Warrior, constantly facing new obstacles and challenges. Just when you think everything is running smoothly, something unexpected can arise and disrupt your plans.

Some of the most significant struggles for me have been the ability to fund these ventures and navigate life’s personal trials. I faced the heartbreaking loss of my mother, experienced the joy and challenge of raising children, and recently had to advocate for my father during his hospital stay due to COVID, then assist him in his rehabilitation back home.

These challenges, while daunting, have only served to make me stronger as an entrepreneur. Each obstacle encountered has toughened my resolve and made my skin more Teflon-like. I welcome every challenge and obstacle with open arms. Bring it on.

Great, so let’s talk business. Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?

Is there anyone you’d like to thank or give credit to?

I owe a great deal of my success to the incredible people who have supported and guided me along the way. First and foremost, I am profoundly grateful for the way my parents raised me. They instilled in me the values of independence, determination, and the courage to put myself out there and pursue my dreams fearlessly.

I also wouldn’t be where I am today without the pivotal influence of my college boss, Martin Guillet. He took a chance on me and introduced me to a career in fitness, which set the foundation for my current path. His belief in my potential opened doors I never imagined and gave me the confidence to follow my passion.

Over the years, many successful clients I worked with as a personal trainer played a crucial role in my journey. They generously shared their wisdom, mentored me, and answered my countless questions about business and entrepreneurship—lessons I didn’t learn in college but were essential to my growth.

Lastly, my wife, Alexi, has been my rock. From the very beginning, she supported me wholeheartedly, understanding that our journey wouldn’t be an overnight success. Her unwavering belief in me and our shared vision kept me going through the toughest times.

While some may think I did it all by myself or attribute my success to luck, the truth is, it takes a village. I am deeply thankful for the people who have helped me get to where I am today.
