ABOUT US
Younger Than Last Year is a fitness studio and healthy lifestyle resource hatched from the mind of personal fitness instructor Robert Troch.
After years of training groups and individuals in different modalities, Robert noticed that there was a lack of consistent fitness and nutrition advice for those who wanted to reconnect with their younger selves.
So he decided to fill the gap – not only for his students, but also for himself, because at the time he had just entered into his early fifties.
Currently, we offer group fitness classes at our studio in Brooklyn, New York, and share easy-to-understand fitness and lifestyle advice through our website and social media channels.
But we’re just getting started!
