Mike Seril: A Community All-Star

May 11, 2015

Mike Seril has a passion for fitness and giving back to the community. He holds both a Bachelor’s Degree (‘99) and Master’s (‘02) in Kinesiology - Exercise Science and Exercise Physiology from California State University, Northridge — and is now the proud owner and a personal trainer at his own gym, Mike Seril Fitness, Inc. His smile lights up the room as he shares his path and reminisces on the time he spent at CSUN 13 years ago. He shares how CSUN was much more than a great education. It gave him valuable life lessons — perhaps the most important being community service. Mike defines wealth as being able to give back to the community.

As he sat and discussed his more proud achievements they all revolved around giving fitness back to the community, especially children. He explained how good it feels to give back because “when I was a kid, I could have benefited from these programs.” As a successful fitness entrepreneur, Mike has not forgotten what matters the most and continues to share his gifts and talents with the community.
