From West Africa to Los Angeles — a Method Born of Movement
✨ A SPARK IN AFRICA
“I never forgot the burn.”
As a teenager in West Africa, Garba Onadja — known today as MisterG — would often train in martial arts with a French friend, Charles, a Taekwondo black belt and La Savate competitor. During one session, Garba asked:
“What makes La Savate different?”
Charles explained chambering — a unique positioning technique that ignites the glutes, hips, and core before each kick. Garba mimicked the move… and felt the fire. That moment planted the seed for what would one day become a global fitness method.
🇫🇷 REFINED IN FRANCE
In the elegant city of Nice, France, Garba — no longer competing but now a fitness coach — became a passionate observer. He studied La Savate artists for their control and flow, and ballerinas for their strength cloaked in grace.
What connected them both?
Precision. Discipline. Elegance.
It was here that the foundation of gTonnicks took shape — a blend of power and poise.
🇺🇸 REALIZED IN LOS ANGELES
In the late ’90s, Garba opened Starphysique Studio in LA. His clients were losing weight with cardio, but they weren’t feeling toned or defined.
That memory from Africa came rushing back:
The chambering burn. The activation. The tone.
It was time to create something new — something that worked where trendy workouts failed.
And just like that, gTonnicks was born.
💪🏾 WHAT IS gTONNICKS?
gTonnicks is a unique body-sculpting method that fuses:

“gTonnicks isn’t just a workout — it’s strength in motion, elegance in practice, and empowerment in every move.”
